AllHipHop.com: Who influences you more, American rappers or UK rappers?

Klashnekoff: Good question. It used to be American, all day long. Ras Kass, Killah Priest, MF Doom, RZA, Wu-Tang…now it’s Terra Firma [Klashnekoff’s crew] and people like Smasher, Devlin, Ghetto, from over here. There are still a few American rappers I listen to. Right now I’m pumping Nas and Jay Z’s albums like it’s a religious prayer or something, ‘cause they’re the only ones who are keeping the Hip-Hop that I love alive. There are a few more, dead prez, Saigon…I’m a Saigon fanatic- to me he’s one of the truest people out there, Papoose too.
