MY REVIEW
This ain't some ordinary mixtape niggas pass out at the mall. or some weak demo they try to give to rappers. this sht is official. my bruddda Dino is the truth. I have to say i'm impressed. i can very rarely say that i listened to a whole cd or album or mixtape without skipping a track. this 26 track mixtape is full of artist cameos and hot verses. some of the greatest punchlines i've heard. the best thing about "The Boy Next Door" is that it doesn't sound like an amateur mixtape. it's good quality and produced well. the beats are banginn. the boy Dinoo Supreemo is original.
lmaoo yeah , sorry i just got off the phone
buht im ready
well let's go. i'ma just copy and paste this sht in a minute. lol.
so, Where are you from? Or what part of Cali?
lol . im california born & raised . from this suburb called the Antelope Valley .. well , used to be the suburbs. LOL
what happened to it? lol.
all the hood people from LA found out how inexpensive it was to live there . LOL
werd. lol. so what was it like growing up there?
it was real cool . we've lived in pretty much the same neighborhood all my life , so nothing else is really home . lol
so you really cali born & raised. lol. how do you think your surroundings have influenced your rapping style or have they?
in all honesty .. california didn't really influence me or my rapping style . east coast 90's hip hop truly influenced me to rap . BIG , Jay , Nas , Foxy Brown .. that whole era . i started getting into the older rap when i was about 15 .. and it made me just pick up a pen , like i can do it too !
that's cool. alot of cali rappers don't like admitting they were more influenced by the east coast. so, are your more of a writer or a freestyler?
im definetly a writer . but if i freestyle , it's because it's free , and im stylin' on niggas . hahahah
haha. that's the best reason. what things or people inspired you to persue a career in the music industry?
before i was even a rapper , Michael Jackson made me just wanna be a superstar . i didn't know WHAT i wanted to do , but i knew i wanted to make people love me like they do him . but rapping .. Bow Wow , The Game , & Foxy Brown . and a lot of niggas don't give female rappers respect , but i pay it when it's due . straight up .
i feel you, there has been a need for more female MCs. how do you feel about the few of them who are out today?
the only female rapper that's in the limelight today that i respect IS nicki minaj . other than the fact that she has BARS .. i can actually see her drive and determination to be sucessful . and i believe she's gonna blow up sooner than expected .
i agree. she's the best out by far. you said before MJ was a big inspiritaion to you, would you say he is your favorite entertainer?
honestly , i don't have a favorite entertainer . everybody that i look up to , i take something from that . so i can't pin point one person and just say that he/she is number one . but he's definetly up there .
ok.. let's talk about the mixtape, The Boy Next Door. name a couple of the tracks on the mixtape that had to be on the cd to show people your true skills?
"Who Got Bars" , "Blowin' me up" , "Magnetic" , "Startercap / Snapback" , & "MC's act like they dont know" . what were your favorites ?
i could see them all on my ipod, but hands down Magnetic is slap worthy. i'll blast it right now. lol.
LOL well thanks . & it's crazy because i wrote that in my car , in front of my house when i just turned 18 ! (i'll be 20 next month). and another thing that a lot of people don't know is that TBND [The Boy Next Door] took me damn near 2 years to finish . because it was titled something else before that , but i didn't feel like it was ready yet .
what do you think was the reason it took so long for the mixtape to be up par?
well , im a perfectionist . and trust me .. if you heard a lot of the tracks that i did beforehand .. you'd probably ask me what the hell was i thinking . hahahah . naah but , it was all about the right beats and what fit the title . because this was me telling the world , " listen to me , i can fuckin rap ! "
lol. i understand. so do you have a hand in making the beats you use or do you just shop around?
i shop around most of the time . and i like to get on shit people never heard before , or beats that could just take people back to a different era in music . i really just wanna school the younger kids on what music was , and what it's gonna be. like did you know "Magnetic" is a Foxy Brown beat from 2003 ?
YEA. i thought it was. lol. but i see you spit on the old school Biggie beat, "Juicy". i was impressed. usually it can come off a little wack when somebody tries to revive the past.
that's what im usually afraid of . i did the " Kick in the Door " instrumental from Life After Death, too , but i didn't feel like it was up to par to make the final tracklisting lol . and i wrote " Juicy " when i was 18 too . lol
it seems 18 was your golden age. lol.
not quite , because when you hear what i've been cooking up for the next tape , you'll see what this is really all about LOL . but there are about 5 or 6 tracks that i did when i was 18 that made the mixtape .
thats cool. so i'm gettin the exclusive on that next mix right?
oh of course ! i got about 15 tracks that are done already , you can have that advance .
well, come onnn blood. i already know that sht GO! haha.
HAHA , bro , i got chu ! im just praying it's well recieved like the first tape .
i have faith. lol. which of the tracks were the most fun when you were recording?
well , i record everything alone , yeah alone .. all my mastering , editing , everything i do is dinoo . point blank . but the most fun i had doing a song would probably be snapback . because i was jerkin' the whole time i was droppin my verse . hahahaha !
haha. werd. thats dope. i saw a couple of the videos on your Music Profile. lol. so i guess it's safe to say your a good dancer? lol.
i've been a dancer all of my life . now THAT is all michael . LOL . but i don't dance much anymore because i smoke too much weed !
lol. how long have you been smoking? do you drink?
i've been smokin' weed since i was sixteen . and i think that made me a better artist . gettin' my creative juices flowin' , ya know LOL . and i don't drink much , but that doesn't mean i can't ! haha ! but on rare occasions , i do like to have a drink every now and again . but no alkie though ! hahah
lol. and just for all the kiddies out there. you gotta tell em smokin won't make you better.. you just lucked up on that gooood sht. lmao.
LMAO. yeah ! definetly . don't ever follow what anyone else is doing . follow your own path . just because i do it , doesn't mean everybody else should . i just do me .
'nuff said. so, there are alot of cameos from other artists on the mixtape that where pulled from other songs, what artists do you want to work with in the future and why?
oh there's a huge list . for starters , my number one thing would be to do an official record with Foxy Brown . so foxy , if you see this .. i NEED you !! and another one would be Cassidy . even though i KNOW he would lyrically body me on a track , i think my swag would match that . hahahah
definitely. lol. what do you think the music business is in need of right now?
Dinoo Supreemo . hahahah ! naah , i think the music industry just needs more substance . because if you've been hearing all the new shit i've been hearing .. niggas don't talk about anything anymore . and that's real . LOL .
yea. everything about music now is about stupid ass dancing. but enough of these serious questions. so tell me what it is with you and Foxy Brown?
Foxy Brown .. man . since i was 6 years old , i've been a foxy fan . but i really didn't get back into her until i was about 14 . one day , i was going through my cousin's cd collection , and popped in Ill Na Na while i was playing madden . and never in my life have i ever heard anything like that . so i did my research , refreshed my memory , and the rest is history !
lol. i can dig it man. i felt the same when i first heard lil kim's Hard Core well..for a lil bit. lol.
oh no , i love kim too . but she's not foxy . i know people are gonna be angry about thaat .. but .. she's not .
>:O lol. yo, what was going on when you recorded Beef Stew?
oh shit ! i forgot all about beef steww !! now thaaat was the funnest song . that day , i recorded 17 songs , and that was the ONLY song that made the final cut . it was the last track of the day , and my best friend delanoo & my cousin was there with me . and all day , we were talking about beefstew , because of a nicki minaj freestyle ! hahahah . and i put the beat on , and delano started freestyling the hook . and then i started the verse , and it was hilarious , because it made no sense . LOL ! and right after we recorded it , we put it out , and everyone loved it ! i wouldn't have kept it personally , but since they fucked with it .. i couldn't let it go unheard .
lol. it was still hot in the end. do you ever ghostride your whip?
naah , that's northern california . im near LA . we jerk . LOL
i'm a beast from the east man. idk about the DubC. lol. do you listen to e-40 or is that for No.Cal too? lol.
everybody listens to E-40 !! and it's funny because my cousin is WC's artist , & is on tour with him now . Young Maylay , yu should check em out .
yeaa. that's a shaaameless plug. lol. but i guess it wouldn't hurt. lol. for all those who don't know.. where did your name come from?
i was really about to say that . LMAOOOO . & my name came from this dude i went to school with . he was a reaaal goofy dude , cool kiidd LOL . 10th grade , he comes in the classroom & was like "Dinoo Muthaafuckinn Supreemoo !!" and i looked up like * DINGGG ! hahahah , and i jst kept thaat . lmaaoo .
lol. well thats a dope name. where did your parents get your name from? lol.
My uncle . my dad's brother's name . He died in '87 , and my dad felt he had to keep the name alive . when i was a kid , i hated it . i used to always get the flintstone shit , but now .. i embrace that . i think it's hella different , and who could forget the name Dino ? lmaoo ! ( not in a cocky way of course ) LOL
lmao. sure. but it definitely sticks bro. favorite tv on air or cancelled?
i don't watch too much tv , but i like to watch iCarly with my little sister ! that show is fuckin comedy ! hahahah ! hella cheesy , but hey . lol
lol. werd. that show is pretty funny. but alright. theres only a couple questions left. the most important ones. you ready? lol.
aww man . yeaah ! let's go lmaoo .
for the girls wondering, who is the leading lady in your life?
My 7 year old sister , Kimali . but there's nothing serious in my life right noww . a couple potential ladies , but not right noww . im focused maaannn !!

no doubt, alright for the last question to wrap it up.. what makes you different from all the other rappers who try to make it in the music world?
i want it , the most. and, i could end it like that , but .. a lot of people don't listen to different genres to make themselves more musically inclined . i feel like i know so much , i could do anything sometimes .
on the flip.
My room is full of magazines, shoe boxes and clothes. My PC is full of pictures and overflowing with music. I find joy in alot of things from Rihanna to girls in Louboutin. I'm addicted. To Fashion. To Music. To Rihanna. The three things in life that make sense... lmao. I gotta cut the BS yo. lol.
