- Опубліковано 15 жов 2024
- www.hardknock.tv Hard Knock Tv's Nick Huff Barili sat down with Hopsin at his home studio for an in-depth interview. As most of you know Funk Volume is no longer. Hop sat down with Nick for over an hour to explain how things got to this point and why he has walked away from his own label Funk Volume and his distribution deal with WBR. Hopsin breaks down why he is no longer talking to his former Funk Volume partner Dame and how things are with the rest of the crew including Dizzy Wright and Jarren Benton. Hop also shares his vision for his new label and clothing company Undercover Prodigy. This is part 1 of the conversation. Part 2 is uploading now and will be available in by 7pm today! We are just getting started!

At first hopsin seemed to be childish, but the business talk is completely out of line. Hopsin has the right to his own manager and accountants. He is smart to move away from that.
bruh look at the desktop behind him. all those files lmao
He needs to hire someone to organize that desktop
Bruh fr
+Kirkules Games lol
damn!!
This shit was so interesting to listen to after waiting so long to figure out why funk volume went down.
it's sad to see fv fall apart. keep doing you hopsin. I will support you.
"I can't believe he said that two times, in less than a week." 😂😂 Hop is mad funny! Also a great interview.
Hopsin pulled an ice cube
W
Duuuude you just pin pointed what I thought Hahahahahaha
I thought the same thing when i listen to his song lol
name _ bet u wont pop up where i stay nigga
name _ "hopsin the only good rapper left" faceass fuck outta here nigga lmao
Does hop have a spider man background? My nigga.
Yup!
+Josh Boggs I thought it was a Battlefield background.
I'm wearing a spider man jacket now lmao
Josh Boggs yeah he does
Hopsin is almost 31, dude looks 21!
black don't crack
+SMIRKS You mean black don't crack
+SMIRKS white ages like milk
+Gunsmith Clothing Acts about 15.
Plus he doesn't abuse his body with drugs, not even alcohol.
HOPSIN is just a real fucking dude...I always respect R-E-A-L honest dudes.
i feel like Hopsin is wayy to underrated i personally think that he's one of the best rappers since Eminem
I feel like Hop watched Straight outta Compton and then started questioning Dame
That's probably what did happen lol cause he did call Dame the modern Jerry Heller
A scary fella
YellowSaint I saw what u did there ;)
Afshin Issaee nah not even
i hate your fucking name. every letta
13:45 - 14:00
I think we should lock Hopsin in the room..............
+MrSpittaz he'll burn that place tf down lmao
+Immodest_Pigeon
Hopsin is doomed, locked in a room
Spaced out like I love poppin' the shrooms
MrSpittaz let's do it!
xKillerClownx holler at ya boy!
WOWOOWOWWO it just cut on the good part.... WOOWOWOWOWOOWO
Fr
WHAT... WHAT THE FUCK!
+Omar Lovely Super sayin level 10
this should have millions of views. and HardKnockTV should have way more subscribers. Always deliver high quality videos. And you are the first one to find out. I love this channel.
One of the most hardest working artist. Self made songs with self made beats. Takes forever. Can't believe he works this hard. Hop should have so many fans and money compared to the time he's been spending behind the computer. Artists like drake always have free time. U see drake at court side raptor games while every time I see hopsin he's either at his studio or a tour. Much respect and love. Keep it up bro!!
Also hopsin spends legit time and effort into lyrics and beat, drake has a good beat not gonna lie but he says random crap lmao.
Huge Hopsin fan, this guy needs to get some more respect
hopsin was like the ice cube of funk volume. always question the money and trying to figure what's really going on with the money
He should join shady records. In an interview he said eminem was his favorite rapper. He seems like one of the few as good as em.
Who else keeps refreshing Hardknocks channel?
At the fv show I went to
Hop was sweating on stage working hard and stage diving for over an hour
Dame was standing at a table selling other artists music lol
I absolutely love his music, it's not all about drugs and shit, and if it is, it's not in a bad way
"This keyboard I have, I play this"
Bruh made me think of Supa Hot Fire ahaha
😂 😂 😂
Hop is authentic with his lyrics. It's a shame he goes unnoticed....
This is horrible!!! I mean I love Hopsin but this is just fucking wrong!!!! I can't even believe this!!!! How can a man.... THIS TALENTED...... Have... That ....Many ............ Desktop Shortcuts..... insane.
30 years old damn you are well preserved
Hopsin is the first thing I think of when I hear funk volume. Keep it up M sounded so dope can't wait !!!
eminem really needs to sign this guy, i bet it would make hopsins life complete if eminem comes up to him.
Agree.
+DeathSpectro702 they both good but i feel like it would make Hopsin feel like a shadow idk
Shit, I was listening to yela and hop while they were small and then Shady picked up Yela and he blew up. So id love that
+AjREDD24 yeah but yela dropped out and became that similar white guy to eminem. Hopsin gotta be self made. That's who he is. J Cole did it and got mad respect, so I think Hop can do it.
This video is so well made. Kudos to whoever produced it.
I used to think Hopsin was corny...watched it and realized he's a solid dude.
Ahaha
+Antimatter ThreeThou He's still corny, his music is garbage and he does a lot of stupid shit, but he's right in the video. The manager screwed him over, he's right to be mad, and he tell the story rationally. But his friend Joker already tried to tell him, but he wasn't listening. So technically, Joker was the "smartest" one in the label.
+kashstory Jokerr wasn't on FV. He was an old friend of Hop back in the day.
Jamie Flanagan Well, he dissed FV, that should've been the wake-up-call for the "aware" Hopsin.
+kashstory if his music is "garbage" then why are you watching this video? Why do people like you have to make comments on music you hate? Leave the comments section alone, so it can be filled with positivity about the artist at hand.
I feel like Hop sin is on some Ice cube, NWA shit right here. The dude is so fucking talented but so underrated. hope the dude blows up and gets the recognition he deserves.
After watching straight outta Compton I was like wtf am I in a movie lmaooo
+Ryan Diaz lol most of you kids didnt even know who they were before the movie
+dude2die4 good thing I'm not most kids nor am I a kid
damn this is crazy! really interesting to hear the real business side of the industry and that's to say that hopsin isn't "commercial" or "mainstream" this guy worked really hard for his success and he's going through this is just insane. I'm glad he has his own lawyers and accountants imagine how many artists don't think like hopsin and just get used for a long time.....it's more than just music at the end of the day when you start creating content and releasing it
thanks for actually letting hopsin talk lol unlike that power 106 interview where they wouldn't let him talk for more tha 10 seconds without interrupting
I met him at that first Meet and Greet of the tour in Hollywood, he was the nicest dude acted like he always knew you. Albums super solid too. Its bullshit what you've put up with man keep on keeping on!
'hopsin, you dont work hard!'
Leaves funk volume, 2 seconds later
Starts up Undercover Prodigy haha
and a few days later Dizzy, Jarren, and Hoppa leave FV.
hopsin will never go unnoticed ! He means a lot to me and probly a lot of people. If he ever quits rap or even die, I will to. I was going through something n I started listening to his music n I made it cuz of him. Hopsin, I hope you know I will always be a true fan no matter what u do or happens. #Forever ill!
We need to hear Dizzys and Jarrens sides. Get that in the works
Yes.
+Alexleyva3899 They are both on HipHopDX
Go on Vlad TV channel they done an interview with Dizzy but I don't know About Jarren
I've been trying to upgrade my mic since I have money for it, and is that the Rode nt1a in the back?
This guy needs to find his Quincy Jones, like MIchael Jackson did in the past. There is no denying he is extremely talented but I know he can make some incredible music with the right producer. Just hearing the mix on the last verse of Ill mind 8 after he says blessed had me going bananas.
That's what I think, I feel he can definitely rap, but his production is ass
Thanks for uploading this. I am an artist & even though this situation has nothing to do with me it inspired me & made me feel better about my situation & makes me want to push harder.
Dizzy and Jarren shoulda joined him
Your too real for these phonies my man. Keep being you. I'm gonna be making beats and doing songs with this man one day soon. Passionate Coleman, I'm coming...
i have been a hopsin fan sense Day one no bullshit
I first listened to Hopsin back in 2010 a friend told me about him the song was "sag" my pants and ever since then I've been riding with hop, I like dizzy too but Damn I thought it would at least be.hop and dizzy on the new label.
You are a real person and not some fake. People don't wanna hear the truth just keep doing what you doing which is KILLING IT!!! This just more reasons to keep your buzz up!
Dang hopsin how many files you got up on that desktop?!?!
Respect to Hopsin. I'm glad you were able to see the shit going wrong. I'm glad you were the smart one and not the oblivious one.
that desktop game is strong as fuck
I bet that desktop (Works-Out).....U get it, it works??....
Okay ill just kill myself XD
@HardKnockTV Legit, best interviewers, you did not interrupt Hopsin ONCE.
Always let the artist's chat what they want to, never throw them off course. Please don't turn into interviewers where you feel like you 'have' to ask them otherwise you will forget, make sure you got those questions jotted down.
For real, if you stay the way you are, I would love you to interview me if I was an artist.
I go SUPERSAIYAN HAHA
i love your art hop, not stop anything your doing. love how dark and deep you go into your feelings an BOOM ITS MAGIC.
This is a whole replica of the NWA situation...
But now we have social media, Lol. Can't wait for the movie once he blows up.
basically getting fucked by a record deal
+NapTunes Christ, he's not gonna be that iconic. He'll never be on the level of the legendary NWA, nor does he deserve to be, don't count on it.
"2 times he said I dont work hard. I flipped. I went Super Saiyan. Level 10!"
This nigga really said "Level 10" im done XD XD LMAO My nigga Hopsin!
what interface does hopsin use?
Just came from Power 106 Los Angeles for a better interview. Thank you!
Lol same
EARNED MY RESPECT
When, ILL Mind of Hopsin 8 started playing I didn’t want it to end 💜
Warner Bros was the worst distributor to make a deal with, Bone Thugs (who are legends I will add) did a deal with WB because they felt slept on considering what they've contributed to Hip Hop and wanted to be in front of a wider audience and they failed to promote Uni5 as to what was wanted. Don't deal with Warner if you're a rapper.
Hop needs to drop the contact eyes gimmick, he is 30 now and has more than enough talent to really make a mark on hip hop, it's just the gimmick that makes it hard to digest him seriously
tru
it ain't y'all. He'd prolly smack you in person, but you wouldn't be saying much if that was the case 😂
+Adrian Rodriguez lmao you ignorant nigga, why would he smack me for an opinion he's a lot smarter than you are lmao
It's his type of shit.
+Yung Papi Chulo True i love hopsin but the contacts piss me off lol
hopsin deserves so much more then this he was one of the only rappers whos dont make shitty songs he actully put thr effort in his music.
Hopsin is 30 years old??? I thought he was like 22.
Supper saiyan level 10 LOOL
Yes *supper*
having adhd makes me forget how caught up i get in the moment of life and i have gotten in cold situations , im sorry this happened to you hopsin
"super sayin level 10"
next album confrim.
+Maurice Fleshman There wont be next album, just singels. Atleast thats what he said on Younow
THE BOSS Hmmm all right then.
THE BOSS nah there will be an album, savageville was supposed to drop but "too much controversy" so there'll be another album. He just said singles worked better at the tome
"I flip I go super sayin. Level 10" lmao
when dame told hopsin he doesn't work hard, he was talking post music creation. when hopsin creates music, he doesn't do any promotion or anything after the fact and expects the label and everything to market him. the distribution deal most likely wasn't about marketing, it was about making the music easily accessable to consumers. that's why his views were the same. dame was just trying to say hopsin didn't work hard after making the music, but agreed that hopsin is probably one of the more hard working artists in the game in terms of making the music. i'd like to hear hopsins response to this, because this is what dame claimed to have meant by him not working hard.
He should've explained himself better directly at Hopsin, not keeping shit vague and insulting.
+Zane Mcadams if that's what he meant he could have said that no body a mind reader he should have said what he meant that's why its bs its a serious situation and he just playing around.
this vid was made on my bday
Undercover
Prodigy
Going nowhere but UP.
5:20 that was funny. i feel bad for hopsin though because he's such a creative person.
4 dislikes dizzy jarred Benton swizz don't help out dame 😂
How can you not love Hopsin? Seriously.
damn homie still using windows media player.
might I say thank you for never backing down, always saying true, & fucking sticking it to the sons of bitches that needed it stuck too. U.P. I feel you.
the jokker was right....
Hopsin, do you man! Don't let Anybody drag your name in the mud like that!! You got your fans an we're here with you no matter what you decide in life!!!
Hop been fucked over by every label he signed with ever lol, even the one he built.
+Victor Gonzalez yeah man fucking hell lol
that track was sick :D
Yamcha?!, lol
I wonder what SwizZz has to say? That is his brother. Is that why he dipped? He knew Big Head Dame up to some bullshit.
That's exactly what I've been thinking man. He intentionally has been inactive from making music the past 4 years. There has to be a reason for that.
hop I fucking love you brotha, you so real & I support you 100% , you are genuine and made a very very very good decision
Dame is trippin. Hopsin doesn't work hard gtfo 😂
interesting video, as an artist I wanna say thanks for sharing your story and big respect for carving a path on your terms, fkkk labels and middlemen, I've had same experience, creatives are the brains behind the operation.
This sounds so much like N.W.A. wtf? it's weird asf.
You let a Jew run my crew!
Dame was jewish?!
p.s-I get the N.W.A reference
I feel u on not being noticed. Ive been writing songs sense i was 8. I know i have a talent . You are inspiration for ones like me. Lol when i get equipment to record. You WILL hear about me. Thats my dream.
who's back here again after they just squashed their beef on the fv podcast
I think he was making a reference to Tyler the creators show "Loiter squad" when he said rappers that get late night tv shows lol
Real talk Hopsin, respect it!
Such a Smart guy. I respect his personality and music.
I will support U.P
Hopsin is very well spoken and he does great music he's got it all
i love hop, he's so real and raw, not like every other artist these days.
Hop is such a wholesome dude. Dame is and would be nothing without him.
I heard Hopsin is signing The Jokerr and Novi Novak to his new label...
ayee I want hopsin to do what he's doing I feel like I can really relate to him me and him I can understand what he says in he's songs
that's pretty cool that he paid his own Mom's Run he's such a humble dude I wish him the best of luck
