Drama: So whats a day in the life of Qualmes?

Qualmes: Hustle hustle hustle, you know I wake up round 9 and Im straight to the comp fucking with beats whether writing tracks for artist or for myself, Im usually in the studio all the day you know, if your not perfecting your craft someone else is eating your shit, You know Im still in the streets and shit but Im set on getting on higher ground, literally, the cribs over looking the rose bowl is such a good look right now, but you know me, Im in the same spots as all my niggas and at the same time im slapping hands with million dollar managers and execs and in session with Rihanna life is crazy you know?

Drama: Is there anyone locally ( Pasadena/ Altadena ) that you respect musically, who else is out here makin good music?

Drama: So how can you sum up "Recipe For Destruction"?

Qualmes: I gave um everything, The streets, The females, The radio, its basically summed up as what anyone can pick up and fall in love with a track with, Its like getting a plate of food where you got every credit in the world trying to taste it not one persons taste is the same so everyone is allowed to get the portion of it, All these dudes out here trying to act 500 percent hard on every track, its not working, Were in a new era of music where you gotta cater to everybody, closet music isnt gonna get you anywhere, your not gonna get shows, cds, deals, sponsorships shooting people on every record, grow up you stupid niggas

Qualmes: Haters...I see the bulletins, blogs, I been got the voicemails got the word of mouth through your hos, got the word through the streets, Im in a position you cant be in cause your not what it is right now, You can look at my forearms up and down Im a Supreme ass nigga, but regardless if you fucking with me or not I seen yall at my show Ive watched yall beg me to get you in for free, so I leave it on this note, You aint doing nothing unless you Supreme, So come in my circle and let me make money off you, Shout out to all my family right now JL ,GQ, Prodigy, Buddah, Jules, everybody in Dena Love, CCK all day, everybody supporting you know I never disappoint, and everybody hating I got jobs open to clean shoes and shit like that, Su Su Su Su Supreme
