DJFOCUZ : WHERE YOU FROM?
BIG LUCK : I AM FROM UPSTATE NY UTICA NY BETTER KNOWN IN THE RISE OF THE MAFIA DAYS AS  "SIN CITY" RIGHT OUT SIDE OF SYRACUSE AND ALBANY NY .

DJ FOCUZ : HOWS THE HIP HOP SCENE IN UTICA?
BIG LUCK : THE HIP HOP SCENE AROUND MY AREA IS A WORK IN PROGRESS, THERE IS ALOT OF TALENT WHERE I AM CURRENTLY. ITS JUST HARD TO GET YOUR STUFF OUT THERE YOU HAVE TO GRIND TWICE AS HARD BECAUSE ALOT OF CLUBS AND BARS ARE NOT VERY RECEPTIVE TO HAVING HIP HOP ACTS. NOT TO MENTION MUSIC IS SO WATERED DOWN BECAUSE OF PEOPLE WHO THINK THEY ARE ARTISTS AND THINK THEY CAN RAP NOW EVERYBODY WANTS TO BE A RAPPER. WHEN I WAS A KID EVERYBODY WANTED TO BE LIKE MICHAEL JORDAN NOW EVERBODY WANTS TO BE LIKE 50. NOTHING HAPPENS OVERNIGHT AND IT TAKES HARD WORK AND TIME. LIKE YOUR NOT GONNA JUST PICK UP A BALL AND HIT THAT JUMPSHOT. JUST LIKE YOUR NOT GONNA PICK UP THE MIC AND ALL OF A SUDDEN YOUR A RAPPER SUPER
STAR.. BUT JUST LIKE ANYTHING THERE IS MICHAEL JORDANS THAT THE NBA WILL NEVER SEE OR JAY Z'S HIP HOP WILL NEVER SEE DO TO THE FACT OF NOT BEING ABLE TO UTALIZE YOUR TALENT IN THE RIGHT WAY .JUST WITH ANYTHING ITS COMES DOWN TO WHO YOU KNOW OR BEING IN THE RIGHT PLACE AT THE RIGHT TIME...

DJ FOCUZ : HOW DID YOU GET STARTED IN HIP HOP?
BIG LUCK : WELL I GOT STARTED WHEN I WAS YOUNG ABOUT 13 I WAS IN LOVE WITH MUSIC .MY CAUSIN WAS A LOCAL DJ WHO DID HOUSE PARTIES ETC.. SO HE HAD EQUIPMENTSO WE JUST WOULD MESS AROUND ONCE IN A WHILE BECAUSE ALL OF HIS RECORDS HE WOULD GET HAD INSTRUMENTALS ON THERE. SO THEN MY CAUSIN WAS LIKE YO LETS RECORD THIS. I WAS LIKE OK I MEAN IT WAS NOTHING SERIOUS JUST FREESTYLIN AND HE WOULD JUST RECORD ME LIVE . BUT ITS CRAZY WHEN I HEARD MYSELF RECORDED AND I WAS LIKE DAMN IM REALLY FEELIN THIS. SO THEN I DECIDED LET ME GET THIS KAREOKE MACHINE (LAUGHING)....SO I GOT ONE AND JUST WOULD THROW A BEAT ON AND FREESTYLE. THEN IS WHERE THE WRITING WOULD COME IN I DECIDED LIKE OK IM GOOD AT THIS FREESTYLE THING LET ME TRY TO WRITE SOME STUFF.. SO I STARTED WRITING AND STARTED TO RECORD ON MY KAREOKE MACHINE WHAT I WAS WRITING WHICH WAS TUFF TO BECAUSE IT WAS ONE TAKE SIXTEENS AND HOOKS ALL THE WAY NO BREAKS NO BREATHERS NOTHING BUT THAT TAUGHT ME GREAT BREATH CONTROL. SO I DID THAT FOR A WHILE BUILDING MYSELF AS A ARTIST. THEN I MET THIS KID WHO HAD HIS OWN STUDIO AND KNEW HOW TO MIX VOCALS AND ENGINEER ETC... HE ASKED ME IF I WANTED TO RECORD ON A PROFFESIONAL LEVEL. I WAS LIKE HELL YA IM ALL ABOUT IT . SO I RECORDED AND ALL THAT AND HEARD THE FINISHED PRODUCT AND I WAS HOOKED ADDICTED TO THIS MUSIC I COULD NOT BELIVE HOW I SOUNDED AND HOW GOOD IT SOUNDED. SO FROM THAT POINT ON I STARTED TO RECORD WITH HIM UNTIL I COULD SAVE UP TO GET MY OWN EQUIPMENT AND LEARN EVERYTHING MYSELF.

DJ FOCUZ : WHAT IS YOUR DAILY ROUTINE?
BIG LUCK : I JUST BE CHILLEN AS I CALL IT " LEANIN "(LAUGHING) IM JUST LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE NORMAL LIFE WAKE UP DO SOME PROMO THATS A DAILY ROUTINE NO MATTER WHAT . THEN I EITHER LEAN WITH MY BOYS OR MY FIANCE . WRITE , NETWORK , RECORD, AND DEAL WITH EVERYDAY STUFF GOOD OR BAD...
