PHILOSOPHY

Regarding his influence on Rap , Gipp says, ''"People always considered our music and our presentation different than everybody else's. If people go back and listen to OutKast's Git Up, Git Out ... I call myself a Mutant in that song and it was something that just stuck with me because I felt like we were outsiders in the music Business who weren't geared to what New York and Los Angeles were doing at the time."''
