4:20 Sunday Special Interview with Ty Montana
What up?
First off I would like to thank you for interviewing me. [YOU'RE WELCOME] I'm just chillin' tho in the studio working on some new music
As a rapper what do you feel like you can bring to the table in the rap game?
As a rap artist I think I can bring consistent good music, A new sound, A more positive vibe, Versatile music, And just music that makes people feel good and know they're not alone and going through these hard times in life by themselves.
A lot of people say “Hip Hop saved my life” is this statement true for you?
I'm not going to actually say it saved my life, but with the talent God blessed me with I think the music that I put out can help a lot of others that are surrounded around me like friends & family and that is what I'm looking forward to do with my music.

Do you believe Hip Hop is dead or once was? If so, why? And how do you feel as though it was is resurrected?
Hip Hop never really can be dead, Music is changing like it's been doing over the years. Has music talents been decreased? Yes, in my eyes I think it's a lot easier for artist to get signed and to be labeled a big artist with basic music which back in the day you had to really be lyrical and bring creativity and talent to the table.

What motivates you? And/or → Why do you rap?
I'm motivated by my fans & family, Those are the first people who made me believe in my music. I always knew I had talent but being a professional rapper isn't always guaranteed in life and I was scared to go hard with it & fail. But my fans & family gave me the motivation to go at it and made me believe I can get signed and be a big artist in this music industry.
What do you think makes a rapper “great”?
I think an artist that fans can relate to makes them a great artist. Meaning the positive artist who give our world a deep message other then the one's who are mainly talking aboutwoman, drugs, money, cars, and clothes. For example Tupac Shakur was one who always blessed us with a positive message also Nas was one of those who gave off a positive message as well.

How did it feel to first hear your music on the radio?
The first time I heard my music on the radio was when I was 16, I was living in Brooklyn, NY and I had collaborated with an artist who had a big buzz in Brooklyn. He liked my music so we did a song and he called me about 2 weeks later saying they wanted to play it on the radio. So I tuned in that night and it was really on the radio and I just got butterflies in my stomach and ever since that day I knew I could make it in this industry.Your top five favorite rappers are…? Why?
Top 5 rappers, #1 Big L ; He was just so hungry to be the best, brought the whole metaphor/punchline flow to another level. An even tho he didn't have much time to shine before being killed he is still proclaimed one of the best artist ever to live. #2 I have to go with Biggie he was just so smooth with the words he put together is bars so nice and he never let his weight get in the way of being a great entertainer. Biggie made a way for a lot of New York Artist to get their foot in the door as well #3 I have say Fabolous, I always listened to Fabolous music growing up and he was basically like the cool guy in the industry and very flashy with his words and style. He gave me that sense of style to my music and hip hop attire, I also like how consistent he is with his music and never lets his fans down when it comes to putting out good songs. #4 I have to go with Nas, Nas did a lot for my hometown (Queens, NY) and I always loved the positive messages he would put out to the game. Nas also does a lot for African to as well but at the end of the day Nas is a very versatile rapper who came into the game hungry and showed us all that Queens is in the building as well. #5 I gotta go with Eminem for my last artist, Em is a beast. To come in the game & do the numbers he did being a white artist and coming in so hard to impact the game with his metaphors, creativity, delivery, and style is crazy. Eminem will definitely be a legend in the industry when it's all said & done.
If you could collab with anyone right now who would it be?
If I could collaborate with any artist in the game right now, I would like to do a song with Mary J. Blidge . . My mother grew up listening to her when I was younger and I would always listen with her and since those days I've always loved Mary J.

There are many types of rap from gangsta to old school, from west-to east-coast. Do you see yourself stagnant in one stream of rap or are you branched out?
Nah, I don't see myself in none of that I'm just an artist who been through a lot and I express itthrough rap. I'm versatile and I seen it all so I don't put myself in no category as of what type of artist I am.

What are some words that describe you in regards to your music?
Versatile, Hungry, Determined, Successful, Achiever.
Versatile, Hungry, Determined, Successful, Achiever.
Do you prefer to freestyle or write?
I do both, I freestyle a lot to get better but I think writing is using your brain more an adding more thought to your music.

How many people are on your team and can you depend on them to give you honest opinions of your work?
Fly Republic is my team an we have a lot of different people working with us, But I can for sure say that I know they will give me positive feedback on my music. I work with them for a reason and everyone has their own roll to play in this movement so I am positive that the feedback on everything we do will be mutual.
If you could collab with any producer who would it be and why?
Dr. Dre, He's a beast and no one can ever take that from him point blank period.
