And another one.. Hip-hop has had its fair share of fools, but only one Master. Compared to none but only the likes of the great late Ol' Dirty Bastard and Flava Flav due to his unorthodox style, ODB saw so much of himself in Master Fuol that prompted him to adopting the Master, formed a group with him and passed him the torch. Master Fuol, who is most recognized for his starring role on MTV’s ground breaking “Lyricist Lounge Show,” can easily be considered the Richard Pryor of hip-hop. Much like the legendary comedian, there’s no telling what’s liable to come out of his mouth; but whatever it is, you know it’s going to be wild. It was Master Fuol and his ability to flip a comedic flow in a cipher with freestyle fiend Wordsworth and a few others that brought the idea to Lyricist Lounge co-founder Anthony Marshall to create the sketch comedy show for MTV. Master Fuol’s crazy energy and flawless flows made him the perfect candidate to star in the hip-hop variety show. It was his offbeat characters, as well, that significantly contributed to the “Lyricist Lounge Show” being one of MTV’s highest rated shows during its two season stint. A master of rhythmic flows, Fuol’s often explicit antics, both on and off stage, has made Fuol’s live show an experience few will ever forget. A product of the borough of Brooklyn, Brownsville, New York, finds comfort and creativity in the grimy streets where he’s affectionately know as “Mayor Fuoliani.” Making light of life situations most could find deplorable, Fuol finds solace in the ghetto life that surrounded him as his life and paints a picture through rhyme as only he can. Maybe it was Master Fuol’s love of grit and grime that prompted the great late Ol’ Dirty Bastard of the Wu-Tang Clan to invite Fuol to open for him on his 1998 tour, or maybe it was because outside of Flava Flav, no one else in the music industry is as unpredictable on stage. The energy and creative vibe made ODB form a group with Master Fuol while on tour along side his brother 12 O' Clock and Poppa Chief of the Brooklyn Zu fam called D.R.U.G.s (Dirty Rotten Underground Grimmies). Getting his feet wet in the gutters of the New York underground scene, Fuol began doing shows at the infamous Lyricist Lounge and his stand out performances on tracks like Thirsten Howl III’s “I Still Live With My Moms” and his own anthems “Drunkfist,” “Don’t Worr ‘Bout It,” and “Brownsville Kid” made him a hot commodity locally. The growing buzz bought the pair a ticket as the first unsigned acts to attend the “Lyricist Lounge” tour in 1998. Master Fuol later returned to open for Mos Def on the Lyricist Lounge’s second domestic tour. Fuol has worked with some of the industry’s best from coast to coast including the late Big Pun, Snoop Dog, Eminem, Wu-Syndicate, JT Money, Pastor Troy, MJG, Killah Priest, DMX, Def Jef and many more who were all enamoured by his style. It was the bite that his animal magnetism packed that drew all of these artists, so it’s only befitting that his debut effort entitled “ The Epitome of Raw Animal Magnetism.” created such a buzz even though he was not fully behind the release. The project contained 18 of the of the most Uniquely produced and lyrically delivered tracks that has hit the streets in years. Including the pimped out “Master Fuol” which has Kokane sprinkling his savory vocals over Fuol’s macadocious lyrics. Young Roscoe lends his bravado to the syncopated high intensity beat stings' of “Brownsville NY,” while Ol’ Dirty Bastard spits his signature over the whimsical “Last Call.” Although his style and show is very comical, his skills are no laughing matter. Fuol’s creativity and ability to capture an audience is mesmerizing and brings a refreshing change to the face of hip-hop. Find out what this rare talent has been up to since when Wu-International caught up with him for one of the funniest, honest and insightful interview exclusives, read about his beginnings, his thoughts on Hip-hop, history with Ol Dirty Bastard, the group D.R.U.G and more..

Here is J-Boo Interview covering the Deadly Venoms legacy.. Enjoy In the early '90s, the idea of female rappers was still a novelty. There was Queen Latifah, MC Lyte, Salt 'n Pepa and Roxanne Shante', but nothing compared to male heavy hitters like Run DMC, LL Cool J, Heavy D and later, Wu-Tang Clan, Tupac and Biggie Smalls. Let's stop at Wu-Tang for now, When the Wu came through around the early 90's they pretty much dominated the scene individually and as a group, and gave birth to a number of affiliates commonly known worldwide as Wu-Tang Killa Beez, notable names were Sunz Of Man, Black Knights, Royal Fam, LA The Darkman, Killarmy and much more, The Wu didn't change the male dominated presence in hip-hop but pretty much added on to it. The Deadly Venoms banded together in 1998 to break that mood, not just within the Wu circle but in hip-hop as a whole, Representing the "fairer, but not weaker" branch of the Wu Tang Clan tree, the Venoms combined their collective expertise and individual styles for their project, borrowing their theme from the kung-fu flick"5 Deadly Venoms, The group proved that an all-female posse can lay down a devastating rhyme with the best of them. Their rap themes, emboldened with lyrical and poetic skill were laced over flavourful loops and explosive hooks. Although not as well-known as other contemporary female rappers, the women who make up the Deadly Venoms are no strangers to the rap world. Each member has had a history in the business with varying degrees of achievement. Finesse, N-Tyce, Champ MC, and newcomer J-Boo were brought together under the tutelage of rap producers Norman "Storm" Bell and Russell "Russ Prez" Pressley in response to the lackluster respect paid to women rappers. Finesse, whose tough pretty-lady persona was one-half of the pioneer female rap duo Finesse & Synquis, had been rapping since 1987 when she and Synquis unleashed a pair of singles, and dropped the album "Soul Sisters". N-Tyce had recorded since 1990, but the Greensboro, N.C., native didn't make an impact until the 1994 release of "Hush Hush Tip" which features her Wu brethren The RZA on the beat and Method Man on the hooks. Champ MC had been rapping professionally since the age of 19 and was considered a female version of Rakim in style and delivery. She performed on a couple of singles for Elektra Records but never attained much individual recognition. A label mate to Yoyo she dropped an album "Ghetto Flava" around 1994. J-Boo hails from Queens bridge, NY, a neighbourhood best-known for producing fellow East Coast rapper Nas and Mobb Deep. This stint with the Deadly Venoms represented J-Boo's professional debut as an MC. A fifth secret member by the name of Isis aka Lin Que mostly known for her affiliation with the infamous X-Clan was meant to complete the cipher but it never manifested due to unknown reasons. The The hype with the group, their comparison to the all female version of The Wu-Tang Clan sparked a lot of noise around the formation of the group, and under Wu-Tang managements the Venoms were ready to take on the world, as they prepared for their first debut album "The Antidote" which featured the entire Clan members on the project, but due to legal issues and a corporate merger, the release of the Deadly Venoms' debut was delayed, and they were subsequently dropped from the A&M record label. That did not stop the Venoms and they quickly picked up from where they left off and prepared for a come back with "Pretty Thugs" via DreamWorks in 2000. Unfortunately like the first album, the fans were denied the opportunity to see the raw talent and skills the group had to offer. They finally dropped an album "Still Standing" two years later independently after Finesse left the group for unknown reasons. Nothing much has been heard from the group since then. Never have they been a group with so much skills and talent that have been deprived the opportunity to show their worth, 2 albums shelved from the fans due to politicks involved in the music industry. While the music world and hip-hop has evolved and changed over time, the Wu-Tang fans and mostly Deadly Venoms fans still felt cheated, and Wu-International are forever getting emails, enquires, requests about their favourite group, where are they, are they still together, What happened to them, what are they doing now, When will they release another album? you don't have to believe me, log on to most hip-hop sites or forums especially he Wu forums, and you will surely see something about the Deadly Venoms from fans who are interested in knowing about the group. Well, look no further, Wu-International caught up with one of the members of Deadly Venoms, J-Boo aka Viper to answer these questions and also find out what she has been up to, her experiences, future plans and projects, Please take notes from this veteran emcee as she gives an exclusive interview to Wu-International, you might actually learn something, www.wu-international.com/misc_albums/Interviews/DV%20JBoo%20Interview.htm
