Twista kamikaze release date10/31/2022 ![]() ![]() It reminds me of the techno sound a little bit. Like, you got the hyphy on the West Coast and the crunk music in the South, this is the sound that we created, Juke music.ĭo you think juke is about to blow up like the south did then?ĭefinitely. We had to let them know that this is the sound that we created. Let me go in and try to put something together. I was like, man, what a perfect time to just represent that sound a little bit. It’s the sound that’s always been around. This uptempo beat-just “bumph bumph bumph bumph.” And over the years it just got a little faster here, then a little faster there and now we call it juke music. You know, on the radio there was different things, but in the hood we was going to certain places where we would party like the Factory and the Hole In The Wall and all of this house music was out. ![]() ![]() I was brought up on the west side of Chicago, that sound was like house music. I noticed a Chicago house and juke influence on some of the songs… But at the same time I have to hit them over the head with that raw Adrenaline Rush. Kelly and some other things on the album, cause I gotta do me. That’s why you’re gonna hear some Jazzy Pha and some R. Like, what do people say the most? I’ve grown now, and I love music on all levels. And the effect that it caused was people-especially from the hood that like my music-was like, “Damn, that’s cool Twista but, man, we want to hear that original Adrenaline Rush sound." And so that was my drive when I went into the studio was to give the fans what they wanted. I felt like, “Man, some of my other songs that I really wanted on the album to represent the right way didn’t get to make the album.” So I was upset about that and it caused an effect. So I put a lot of concentration into making songs that I knew had hit potential or single potential, like I did a couple of tracks with Pharrell on The Day After. It’s just like certain things like, when The Day After came out right after the Kamikaze record and I definitely wanted to make a big record. I love working with them and wouldn’t change it for the world. It’s like a trainer, though, I respect my A&R to the utmost. I feel like I’m ready to give them a hell of a show when we go out there on tour and then really start concentrating on the next one.ĭid you want to capture the feeling of the first Adrenaline Rush, with the new album? Why did you name it Adrenaline Rush 2007?īecause sometimes I run into problems with my album, like from the perspective of not being on the same page with some of my A&R, we battle a lot. You know I get the pre-album jitters-but yeah, I’m happy about it. So the reception so far-from what you can tell-has been pretty good? I just worry about whether my fans like my material and they love it so I’m happy. I’m here for the big time and I’m here for when it’s just smooth sailing sometimes. Of course, you want it to be on a larger scale sometimes but me, I’m a longevity artist. I got the type of response that I wanted to get from everybody from the album. How are you feeling now that your album’s out? Check the interview after the jump, and if you're planning on participating in the "Let Freedom Ring Weekend" starting this Friday in Birmingham, Alabama, make sure to see Twista at the Jena 6 Empowerment Concert with Killer Mike, Sean P and Lloyd among others on Saturday. We decided to ring up the quicktalking Chicago vet to talk to him about Adrenaline Rush 2007, the Chicago Juke scene, explicit lyrics and the Jena 6. Twista's latest album, Adrenaline Rush 2007, came out last week, and we've been jamming the jams (of which there are more than a few) pretty regularly around these parts, but we knew Twista had more on his mind than new music. ![]()
