As I type this, Judge D is out on the road tearing up the stage. It's hard to get the time to stop and answer email, while performing shows, meeting fans, and any other of a variety of obligations that keep him away from the computer. I am glad to say that amidst his busy schedule he was able to sit down and answer a few more questions that I had sent.
For those of you who don't know who Judge D is, he is an up and coming artist coming out of LA on Suburban Noize Records. Earlier this year he released his sophomore album and his debut on this label, No Compromize. It is a great album, mixed with great beats, rhymes, and with a message that falls solidly on the positive side of the spectrum, never compromising his integrity or street cred.
You can read my review of No Compromize, or read Part I of the interview, otherwise, on with Part II.
Chris: I read that you have a son. Do you find it hard to balance life on the road and being a father? And has fatherhood changed your outlook on your life or music?
Judge D: Yes and this is a good question. They say to reach your dreams you must sacrifice, and right now I feel like he's my sacrifice. I've always said when your not raising your child some one else is and in today’s day and age that's a scary thing. The birth of my son completely changed my life. If it wasn't for him I would be dead or in jail. Its also made me wanna do something positive with my music for the future of the kids.
Chris: Speaking of being on the road, I can only imagine the wild things you have seen. Do you have any stories that you'd be willing to share?
Judge D: Singing on stage with one of the greatest bands of all time Pennywise, thanksgiving dinner @ Bizzares from D-12, Wicked Wonka and Ricter fucking a midget on the back of the bus.
