You talked a bit about being into stuff outside of the collective unconscious, like numerology\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nI\u2019m a neophyte. I\u2019m in my beginning studies in a lot of esoteric fields like Astrology, Hermatism, Alchemy, Kabbahlism, Egyptology\u2026all these things are analogous to one another, so it\u2019s really interesting once really learn them, you can kind of apply them and understand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Do you believe in that stuff or are you interested in seeing the course of humanity?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nBoth. I take everything with a grain of salt. There are a lot of truths you can realize after studying for years. When you study knowledge and when you see it put into practice in your life, it becomes wisdom because you learn from it. Basically I\u2019m trying to study the secret knowledge that the illuminati has hid from the people. Once the people have the same knowledge of civilization that the elite have kept from us, then I\u2019ll be more adept at fighting the oppressors. And these wacky, off-the-wall subjects are things that your religions are built upon; it\u2019s all from Paganism, it\u2019s all god and goddess sun worship and that relates to your modern day Jesus, but people are just oblivious to this shit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Do see proof that there\u2019s an elite organization like the Illuminati who run shit?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nOh, it\u2019s obvious. Just look at the Statue of Liberty, the Olympic torch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What do you mean? What ties all those together?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nI mean, I could walk down the street in Guelph right now and show you the Freemason temple and the Shriner temple and obviously there\u2019s money in the Catholic Church. To me it\u2019s like Rome never fell, the Pope still runs shit\u2026Israel, everything\u2019s tied in. I don\u2019t know a lot about of World and global politics; I don\u2019t really keep track \u2013 you sound a bit crazy when you get into it \u2013 a lot of un necessary war, famine, death and murders are done on purpose as a sacrifice, as an offering. The occultist beliefs that I try to study are the same principles that caused the World Trade Center towers down. These things are precisely done and people are just ignorant; people don\u2019t think that the government might make decisions based upon Luciferian astrology, but fuck you, it does. I have my own proof, I don\u2019t really feel the need to prove my own beliefs to other people, if they\u2019re too ignorant to see what\u2019s at hand, that\u2019s their problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You see it everywhere; they murdered Princess Diana as a sacrifice under a Masonic site. The shit is everywhere\u2026[Laughs] not like I care about Princess Diana that much, but still they did sacrifice her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There\u2019s a lot of things. The date April 19 is associated with child sacrifice and April 19 is the day they did the Oklahoma bombing and killed all those kids; April 19 is the day they stormed into the David Koresh building and killed all those kids; April 19 is a day of stealing children, all these sacrifices, this shit\u2019s ancient. You have Mardi gras, it\u2019s a Catholic, Paganized ritual. All this shit, Lent, Mardi gras, Easter and the Resurrection. I\u2019m here to tell people that the connection between Christianity and Egypt and the reason that Christmas is what we worship is because of the solstice. But December 21, 2012 is the day of Judgment, it\u2019s Judgment Day, it\u2019s the day, it\u2019s the time\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What does that mean?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe world won\u2019t end, but time and space most likely will. There will be a rip in the fabric of time and space in the whole dimension. It\u2019s the theory of Relativity. You can only measure 5100 years of time before time overlaps upon itself. So basically time and space bend one another; so you can\u2019t measure a million years of time, it\u2019s impossible. Time starts to overlap and warp itself. In 2012, time will collapse. It doesn\u2019t mean you\u2019ll be gone, but you gotta fit through the black hole or your soul is weak. It\u2019s a 40-day transgression through the black hole; we really are going through the galactic center; it\u2019s called the Alligator\u2019s Mouth, it\u2019s the dark rift of the galaxy. There\u2019s a lot of theories; my one theory is that we will have a meteoric catastrophe similar to what was 100 years ago in Tunguska the tragedy that happened in Russia, where there was a meteoric impact where 20 million trees were decimated instantly, but there were no crater impacts because all of these were tiny tiny little stones that disintegrated and caused a gigantic megaton blast in the atmosphere. Many people think that we\u2019re [doomed] to have that over the Northern hemisphere and it\u2019s coming. I don\u2019t know if I believe it or not\u2026it doesn\u2019t really matter to me either way, just buy my record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Does this scare you? If your soul\u2019s at peace you\u2019re completely fine\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nYou can say it in different ways, but it means the same thing as \u2018giving yourself to the will of God,\u2019 people don\u2019t really understand that it\u2019s actually \u2018giving yourself up to the will of the universe, not being afraid to reconnect with a universal Buddha mind or when you do heavy psychedelics [and] you have a near death experience, you connect to the Buddha mind while you\u2019re still alive. You do really need to get rid of your Karmic traps from this plain to move on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Is this material wise? Relationship wise?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nI think everything\u2026but to me I have more of a Dionysus, like a kind of Aleister Crowley type of thing where I believe in Hedonism. Some people believe that abstinence will lead you to god, but I believe that an abundance [will lead you to god]. You get drunk off Absinthe and have an epiphany; you could even be smoking crack and you could be Buddha. I\u2019m pretty against drugs nowadays\u2026but I\u2019m into Salvia Divinorum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Salvia Divinorum is \u201cthe eye of the shepherdess,\u201d it\u2019s the \u201cdiviner\u2019s mint,\u201d I\u2019m heavily into it, I\u2019m not afraid to leave my body temporarily. I have a big ego, but I also leave it quite often.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why do you like Salvia?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nI honestly feel there\u2019s a consciousness from the plant, uploaded into my soul. Plants communicate to you and they talk to you. The book The Food of the Gods<\/em> by Terence McKenna; it says that humans evolved by eating mushrooms and evolved a human consciousness. It gives you more sensory acuity, so in case your hunting, maybe you\u2019re in a trance-like state, you really have a connection with god.<\/p>\n\n\n\nTo bring the whole discussion full circle; to me rapping is a way to connect with those more Paleolithic times of passing things down by the word, or really connecting to the word. To me the word is powerful and universe is made of syllables and sounds. The reason why I do rap is to hopefully initiate a spark of a new kind of consciousness in the mind of the listener and also just to have fun and shit. It basically expresses the whole human condition, the sad, the happy\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My new album I feel does that; it\u2019s got some dark moments, some light moments, some sad moments, some funny moments, that\u2019s all I can hope for as an artist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What happens if nothing happens December 21?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nNothing will happen [Laughs]. To me 2012 is an idea; it\u2019s an inevitable idea of the evolution of the human species \u2013 in a positive way for me. Basically it is the end of the Mayan calendar, but it is the end of a very very very very large cycle, it\u2019s at least a 26, 000 year cycle. It\u2019s the Halcyon, it\u2019s the Black Phoenix of antimatter rising from the depths of this crumbling, archaic history [Laughs], that\u2019s the way I see it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Last words? Shouts?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nI should say thanks to all the artists who did reach out and get on my record and all the producers. Bigups to Factor for hooking it up. A big shout out to Albane. Big shout out to ugsmag, thanks for the shirt. To all the fans: don\u2019t be a hater because really I might joke around and be a bit cocky, but really I\u2019m a fan and I respect most other artists and I hope most people are going to give me a chance with my work because I\u2019m really trying to reach out to a wider audience.
