Wize-Fool, the self proclaimed street soldier always wearing an article of camouflage fatigues is no stranger to the music industry. In 2004 Wize-Fool released a song entitled “Asylum Author” into the mix tape circuit. When LOX and D-BLOCK front man JADAKISS heard the 3 verse masterpiece, he wrote a diss verse about Wize-Fool on the “I’m from New York” record. Falling short of a couple of response verses that would have propelled Wize-Fool’s career into a number one position, the man in camouflage still continued to grind. The mid twenty something year old rapper is a extraordinary lyricist and a well tuned vocalist, ironically naming the second edition of the Street Soldier Hymns collection “Sabotaged Vocalz” Despite the theme and title, “Sabotaged Vocalz” is by far an underground album. Most of the radio friendly songs lyrical content on “Sabotaged Vocalz” is about street wars and partying with some hard verses and R&Bish hooks. When one takes a closer listen, there are about 3 songs with lyrical content directed at the loss of freedoms in the U.S. A really good album to help you pump up before civil war or to make you dance after the revolution.

FizzKicks: I saw the interview about JADAKISS putting out a diss record about you. It’s been about five years that have passed. Why did you choose to speak about it now?

Wize-Fool: The politics and business with that diss record where all fucked up. I felt like Ceaser in the Get Rich or Die Trying movie on the part when Ceaser and his manger are going to different record labels trying to get a deal and Majestic had put out the word to shut em down. When I moved out of New York City to New Jersey in 2006 I found out that nobody knew what JADAKISS meant on that verse but that record was heard around the world. So I felt that it was imperative that it was properly documented as a part of hip-hop history. It would only be right to hip-hop heads.

FizzKicks: Where did you get the idea for “Sabotaged Vocalz”?

Wize-Fool: I always ponder the lockdown scenario of the USA and martial law, mind control technology being used on the mass population.

FizzKicks: Do you feel that industry heads will shun you because of the bold concept of “Sabotaged Vocalz”?

Wize-Fool: No not at all. There are tons of commercially successful rappers that have spoken about these types of subjects. Nas, Prodigy, EMINEM. EMINEM said something off the fucking chain about the Bush Administration. Rappers will always talk about the government whether it’s Notorious BIG, Jay-Z or Young Jeezy talking about the Feds monitoring them or its LIL Kim talking about the CIA spying on her. Rap culture is already targeted by the government, so for rappers not to report would be a crime.

FizzKicks: Why do you always release underground and commercial rap music to your fans?

Wize-Fool: That’s my style, my fans like commercial but then again they love underground shit.

FizzKicks: I heard the track you did with Nucci Reyo and JoJo Pellegrino. What was that experience like?

Wize-Fool: That was produced by Killmore. I was introduced to them by Killmore. That was something special because both rappers are well respected and well known through out the industry. JoJo was just in XXL, The Source and Rolling Stone. Nucci is a living legend in Jersey and his word play is ridiculous. He be saying shit that blows my mind and my man Killmore’s beats is fire. I was just in the studio with Kllmore a couple of days of ago and his focus and his ear on the music is so intense.

FizzKicks: Tell me a little bit about how you got started in music? Wize-Fool: I’ve been working with music my whole entire life. Around age 4 my moms used to bring me to music school. At age 5 she bought me a mini trombone at age 6 I became a hip-hop fiend, around that time my pops gave me a saxophone, clarinet and an acoustic guitar. So I would work with those instruments. Around 10 years old I became a metal and rock n roll head. At 13 I started writing songs. And from then on I never stopped writing. At about 17 years old I got into building home studios, and beat production.

FizzKicks: You were a metal head?

Wize-Fool: oh yeah I still am. I listen to Heavy metal all the time. I love the hardness and the rebelliousness of the distorted guitars.

FizzKicks: Are your songs a reflection of your personal experiences? Wize-Fool: Yeah, a lot of my songs are about being a soldier. And the reason why I chose that personification is because how I had to deal with my life. Some people go thru a hard life and they are traumatized, I went thru a hard life and said that this is war so I’m going to put my camouflage on and be a soldier.
