We got a special treat for y'all in what is the beginning of a
series of showcasing southern rap legends.  

Mr Mixx is the DJ of the infamous M.I. Yayo group 2 Live
Crew
who on Luther Campbell's Skyywalker and Luke
Records imprints put the "I" in independent with gold and
platinum success with little to no radio and video play at a
time when most east coast artist couldn't do it.
Exclusive interview with Mr Mixx of 2 Live Crew - July 23, 2008
Mr. Mixx had a lot on his mind, so much so that this interview is slightly over 60
minutes.  We normally would edit down the best parts, but every thing Mixx
touched on was too good to leave on the cutting room floor, so we're breaking this
interview into multiple parts.  Up first is parts 1 and 2 where he speaks on how 2
Live got started, their winning recipe for indie success, the infamous obscenity/1st
amenment fiasco, and how they put the south on the map.

**Interviewers Note:
Mr Mixx caught me off guard.  Most artists setup a time in
advance to do the interview, but Mixx called me and was ready to talk, so I didn't have
a proper chance to prepare. No worry though, cuz by me being a big fan the questions
came so natural, and Mixx was so cool that it seemed more like a conversation than an
interview.  Please forgive us though, cuz in some parts Mixx's cell signal was weak and
his calls dropped a few times.
