As you all may know, N.O.R.E. is a vegan now, so in 2009, we are switching it up from the Hang Hang Hood Chicken blogs to the Hang Hang Hood Vegan blogs. Same N.O.R.E., same hood talk! So let's kick it off right with N.O.R.E.'s first blog of 2009, and it's a good one! No need to really explain this one! The title speaks for itself, but if you are one of those types that must know some details before viewing, here you go- N.O.R.E. recalls his conversation with Biggie at The Tunnel, speaks on 2Pac and why he never quite gave it up to Pac like he probably should have and the Lox' new album - "we gonna have some type of problems....if ya'll niggaz don't put me on ya'll album....". N.O.R.E. speaks his mind and he doesn't sound too happy with ya'll!
"Nuclear Winter represents many things. It represents dark times in our lives, it represents the state of NY hip hop & how I feel about it, & it represents my blueprint on how I think the music should be done going forward into the future.

It's a journey from darkness into light, & from bondage & the huge amounts of weight on our shoulders to breaking free and regaining our freedom. Nuclear Winter we're coming to take shine....." - Willie Maze
