Capital STEEZ and Pro Era Interview with The Source

Joey seems like a cocky douche. He's better than most. Clearly had a good taste, but it's fucking rap/hip hop man. Capital Steez could get confused with an original 90s hip hop legend because he's so good. His shit is innovative. Other guys meh

For reals all these other kids seem wack. Joey the post boy STEEZ was essentially was the e essence RIP KING CAPITAL STEEZ

[@kane00000]

@@unsubplease9364 I think I misunderstood after second thought. I think Steez had self esteem issues and I bet he felt like he was socially awkward. That's probably why he only released so little and never is the spokesman. Joey knew that and probably feels just as awkward stepping up and having to be that guy. They just want to make music and have these people coming at them with interviews. Of course the goal is to make a living off of it, but I don't think they were seeking fame, which is why he seems like he's being a dick. He probably just doesn't know what to say lol.

NMRK CAPITAL STEEZ, thank you for bringing hip hop to a higher vibration

[@Eshkanama]

Steez was just in his own world man.

[@OceansOfMotionStudios]

Steeze was an introvert and cared about the bars above everything else. Joey and him were friends and kids none the less, at the time. Joey could have left pro era and flew solo, but he stayed. Idk if everything PE has done up til this day is something that steez personally would've cosigned, but again. At this point in time, they were kids. Some would still consider them that now. People grow, mindsets mature and become more malleable, and incentives get altered. All in all, I think they've done what they can to keep the memory of steeze alive, and at the end of the day, they knew him better than any fan did. I do think that some of the moves made were the right things done for the wrong reasons, but I digress. Thankful for what art we did get out of them as a full package. I still rock with PE and Steeze.
