Hello good folks and bad folks. Nebz Supreme here, Rio Escudo from xmas island.. Mr. Mad Lingo himself...aka Duella Deville from the hill...Aka who really gives a fuck?! I like San Pelegrino...

From where?
From 805 County, southern cali...Sheisty Barbaraz to be EXACTEM...

Music Influences?
Hmm..Well i'd definitely have to use the old mom and pop records line..Fer sure that, which included anywhere from Toto to Marvin Gaye to Led Zepplin...From there it went something like this...Metallica, Dead Kennedy's, Suicidal Tendencies, to fuckin NWA, slick rick the ruler, Public Enemy...In 93 when Wu-Tang HIT-Holy Shniit!! I was still bumpin Ice Cube but Wu-Tang blew my noodle..Saafir, Living Legends, Freestyle Fellowship and all that ol underground ATAK shit..And of course being from S Barb Lootpack and the Liks...Nowadays, im'a have to say my man Moka Only is a huge influence and probably my favorite artist..Working with Mokes been dopenary...and of course all of my other homies i work with..I'm admittedly an impressionable pisces so my homies are my biggest influences...Oh, and on some other shit- definitely the High Llamas...Had to throw that in there..Freshness!

Debut appearance as an artist?
Debut as an artist..hmm, well besides a few self released projects from 2002-2004-my first real appearance was on a white label 12'' with Kool Keith and Substance Abuse in 2005..That same year I appeared on 3 independant releases including The Atlantic Connecton on BBE records..That was fresh!

Best moment for you in Hip Hop?
Best moment for me in Hip-Hop!? Hmm, well i've had a few...I guess the first time i rocked a stage was the best moment for me...It was a sold out crowd and we was rockin with the Living Legends cats...My cousin rolled through with the winnebago so we had like a makeshift tour bus with a cooler full a beers and hella weed..That night was dope..Never forget it...

Please speak on your new album "Summer Notations" with Moka Only?
So the new album summer notations-yeah..That's the hot shit man!! Just basically a collection of tracks from 2007-2008...Finally wrapped up in 2009 to be released on the Domination...I like this album..Alot! My heart knows i have alot of growth and capability in me to do much more, so i'm definitely looking forward to that...But BUY THE ALBUM!! tho...You will not be dissapointed...This ones for my real heads and any fan of Moka's work...Haters can eat a shit sandwhich with extra rap turkey..

How did the group Summasound Clinic come together with you and Moka Only?
This album unofficially started back in march of 2007..I say unofficially cuz I never expected to do a whole album with Moka and it was'nt a planned project..I first approached him on some bizness shit...I been a moka fan since the search and rescue album..That shit put me on to all them cats..Ishkan, Jeff Spec all them dudes...But i swear I listened to the desired effect pt.2 album everyday for a light year...playing madden and shit until one day, i came across mokas myspace page and decided to holler at him..Dude was mad cool and we just connected man..I ended up rollin to vancouver that summer and he hooked me up with some beat disks..from there we talked about the idea of doing a project, but shit had'nt panned out..I know dude was hella cool with me but probably wanted to see if I was actually a capable artist and hopefully I've achieved that?..So this project is just me fuckin around on some moke beats from over 3 summers, although most of it was recorded in 2007 and early 2008...Thanks Moke!

Any plans for a tour in the near future?
Yes! Plans for a tour have been in line since day one man..Although these day's mafuckas aint really trying to book a new artist on tours and shit...Would i do it? Hell yeah...What's up Fisher! You got any ideas man?? Haha..Nah, I love rockin the crowd tho...Always a pleasure...I do comedy routines too!! Wet T-shirt contests are always in line..Ladies, I can shake my ass too...so jump on stage wit me and bring me some beer while your at it...Preferrably a dark ale...

I been collabing with alot of cats...You'll probably be seeing or not seeing my name on alot of small independent shit...For me, I have the portico line up coming on domination...My aliases Duella and Rio got a couple projects in the works...One that should be released at the end of this month on Legendary Entertainment...Be on the lookout for that! and hopefully one in time for xmas...Gift wrapped and all that shit!
