By The Hip Hop Writer
Hip Hop Vibe Staff Writer

To be clear, Mac Miller knows his hip hop. Because he does not have the background of most rappers, many have not given him the proper credit. Mac Miller was influenced, at an early age, by Big L, and other legends.

Mac Miller wants to go Platinum on Indie Level, talks Big L, and "Blue Slide Park"

By The Hip Hop Writer
Hip Hop Vibe Staff Writer

Years ago, it was uncool to be an independent artist. 50 Cent made fun of the independent hip hop game, in 2007. His negative comments led to a feud with Cam'ron. However, two years later, 50 Cent considered taking his label independent.

In the time since then, the independent scene has helped two rappers from Pittsburgh. Wiz Khalifa spent for years making underground hits. Mac Miller has also greatly benefitted from being independent and now is working on his debut album.

Mac Miller said he is doing things no other independent artist has done before. Wanting to see how far he can take things, the new goal from Mac Miller is to go platinum. While numerous artists have gone platinum, none have on the independent level.

If one of his independent albums were to go platinum, Mac Miller said he would not only make history, but he would also be "hella cakin." At the age of fourteen, Mac Miller started freestyling and he began listening to the Lifestylez ov da Poor & Dangerous from Big L a year later. While listening to that album, Mac Miller was truly inspired to become an emcee, becoming more than a rhymer, but becoming skilled with wordplay.

Mac Miller's goal is to use his Blue Slide Park album to educate his younger fans about Big L and other legends, such as A Tribe Called Quest.

Is Tyler, the Creator the new Eminem?

By The Hip Hop Writer
Hip Hop Vibe Staff Writer

Last month, Donald Trump made the statement about Mac Miller being the next Eminem. While some pundits took offense, Mac Miller laughed it off. Skin color is the only thing Eminem and newcomer Mac Miller have in common.

Early in his career, Eminem was known for making dark music. Following a battle with drugs, among other things, Eminem changed his music. His last album, Recovery, was Eminem's positive turn. But, he still gets dark from time-to-time.

Tyler, the Creator has been making music for some time. But, he did not truly enter stardom until earlier this year. His single, "Yonkers," has built a cult following over the past few months. With Eminem now making positive music, Tyler, the Creator has filled the void of hip hop's dark rapper.

Growing up, Tyler, the Creator looked up to Eminem for inspiration. Recently, the two rappers met while overseas. Fans are hoping for a collaboration between the two artists, as Eminem has collaborated with a number of newcomers. But, for the most part, Eminem is making more Recovery-style music and the dark market has been filled by Tyler, the Creator. With Tyler, the Creator emerging, is he, instead of Mac Miller, the next Eminem, style-wise?

Mac Miller talks Eminem comparisons and Major Label Deal

By The Hip Hop Writer
Hip Hop Vibe Staff Writer

Yesterday, Mac Miller stopped by Power 105.1's "The Breakfast Club." During his interview, Mac Miller discussed a wide range of topics. Among the topics were his relationship with Wiz Khalifa and the comparisons to Eminem.

Because of his success on the independent level, many are wondering if Mac Miller will sign to a major label. Addressing the question, Mac Miller said he has not made any decisions about a major label. Instead, Mac said he would wait to see what happens next.

Speaking on his relationship with Wiz Khalifa, Mac Miller explained how they are both signed to Rostrum Records. He said the two are free to work together as much as they would like to. However, Mac Miller said he wants to build his fan base more before collaborating with Wiz Khalifa.

Mac Miller also spoke on Donald Trump's Eminem comparisons again. Questioning those who actually got upset, Mac Miller said how can anyone take those comments seriously. It was obvious the only reason Trump knew who he was was because of the "Donald Trump" song. Obviously, Donald Trump does not know much about hip hop music. Mac Miller went on to say he does not care who he is compared to because he is going to be himself regardless.
