HipHopInformant-Advocates of REAL Hip-Hop!

This Kat is Phat!

He's worked with the greats of REAL Hip-Hop, Dilla, Black Milk, Slum Village among others. He's a veteran in the game but, I'm guessing you haven't heard of him. That's beacuse Hip-Hop is now a world of commercialised, money-grabbing, same style garbage. This Kat has been in the game for a LONG time he's a legend.
It's a great honour for me to introduce you to Phat Kat AKA Ronnie Cash...

HipHopInformant: You’ve been described as a Pioneer of the Detroit Hip-Hop scene. How has Hip-Hop changed in Detroit over the years and do you think it’s as strong as it is now as it was back in the day?

Phat Kat: That's a blessing, well the way that its changed is that most of the younger Kats are content with following trends instead of setting trends, and no it’s not as strong as it was back when we were blazing trails because it was more unified the hip-hop shop was like a fraternity and your metal had to be tested to join.

HipHopInformant: What are your views on the Hip-Hop industry at this moment- do you think commercialised or novelty Hip-Hop is destroying REAL Hip-Hop?

Phat Kat: It’s really sad, I believe you have to have the commercialised garbage to distinguish the two but the playing field needs to be balanced and that what’s missing.

HipHopInformant: Are there any underground artists that you would like to work with in the future?

Phat Kat: I’m open to work with anybody that’s making good music.

HipHopInformant: Does your music have a message, If so what is that message?

Phat Kat: Yes it does it has everyday jewels that’s hidden inside my songs and the main message is that we all should take responsibility for our actions...

HipHopInformant: You’ve been involved with Hip-Hop for a number of years, how long exactly?

Phat Kat: 20 years in the game and still Sharpe with the lines I spank lil niggaz and send them home crying to they mom lol...

HipHopInformant: Where did the name Phat Kat come from?

Phat Kat: It all started back in high school because I always kept cash and had whips so my homies began calling me phat kat and the name just stuck....
