I Like Music caught up with the Big Dawg himself to talk about who's hot in hip hop right now, his career and the whole do-it-yourself revolution.
"I Like Music, but especially rap music because… it's the most powerful music in the world. It's certainly influenced my life, it's defined my life and who I am. It's all about sending out a powerful message. Rap music has a whole culture and lifestyle with it. It talks directly to you and I think it's just incredibly powerful music and an important voice to the community." TIM WESTWOOD
