Rap Basement: Did you take a different approach to this album than like your mix tape albums?

Mike Jones: See thats the thing I want to make sure its the same thing. I want to thank all my fans who got me to where I'm at and I also want to let the whole world know who I was so I put a little bit of both in there you know what I'm sayin? So that world finally everybody knows who Mike Jones really is.

Rap Basement: What was the feeling when you found out that you guys got signed to Warner Brothers and going major?

Mike Jones: It wasnt a really excitement deal to me b/c I knew it was a deal ain't nothing but a deal yanno what I'm sayin? Its really an excitement when I go platniums and double platnium. When i do my thang cuz. I was already hot before I got with swisha house yanno what I'm sayin? I got ice Age entertainment yah know what im saying. Than when i blew up from that i got with Swishahouse and when i blew up from that i got with Warner its all a stepping stone.

Rap Basement: Why did you decide to go major when you were doing alot of numbers with out a major deal?

Mike Jones: Because I mean I promoted albums for so long yanno not to just drop (it independantly yanno?)
