Vast Aire, former member of legendary underground hip hop group Cannibal Ox was interviewed by Hip Hop DX on his current music and a possible reunion for the group. Excerpts below, link here.

 

DX: You recently said that the timing is right now for a new Cannibal Ox record. I think fans are excited but also why is the timing right now for that new album?

Vast Aire: I mean [Vordul Mega and I are] in the lab working on music all the time so as far as us doing a full-length the timing was just right. We just decided to rock out the tour, come back from the tour top of the year and then just zone out in the lab. The timing was just, we’re always making music but a full-length it takes some time and some concentration so the energy was right the timing was right, the fact that we’re coming fourth with our label, IGC Records, we’re just bringing it all together…We only have a couple of songs right now so I can’t really, I can just say that the vibes are on right now and we’re making some fire. That’s why we wanted to get back on the road, figure out some things. I like touring all the time, Vordul doesn’t like touring that much so it was special that he’s in that mode and we were like let’s hit the road, it’s gonna break us, it’s gonna wring us out and then we get to come home and just zone out on the record. We don’t have a date or anything, we just are starting to compile all of the crazy components that are going to be down with the record. It’s gonna be nuts, we’re definitely gonna be zoning out (laughs).
