Bishop Lamont Speaks On Detox and Eve
As the buzz for Bishop Lamont’s newest single “Grow Up” spreads to newer outlets, so does Lamont. In a recent interview on the Wendy Williams Experience radio show, Lamont talked about Detox as well as Eve’s quiet fallout with Aftermath and Dr. Dre.
Being somewhat of a spokesman for Dre’s Detox album, Lamont provided a current yet quick report on the project that has put Dre in a mental stalemate. “It’s not done, we about 50% in. You gotta realize with dude, [it’s been] 22 years, and dude is like ‘it’s gotta be the best it can be.’ He’s under pressure, the worst pressure. The worst scrutiny is coming from his own mind, his own ears.”

Bishop Lamont: Sunday Morning
Dr. Dre and the artists he has introduced the world to have always had a knack for writing about the kind of subjects most people repent for on Sundays. Who knew that all along he was really looking for someone to strike the perfect balance between Saturday night hedonism and Sunday morning holiness? As one of the few emcees to brag about the joy of spreading the gospel and being on the receiving end of fellatio in the same bar, Bishop Lamont is the rare artist who can sometimes even make “the good doctor” uncomfortable.
After years of patiently waiting behind 50 Cent, Eminem, Busta Rhymes and Eve on the Aftermath roster, it seemed like it would take a miracle in order for Bishop's debut to see the light of day. But the last year has seen the Carson, California native use a series of album-quality mixtapes to create renewed anticipation for both his own debut album and Dr. Dre's long-awaited swan song, Detox. While taking a rare break from recording what was presumably material for one of or both of the aforementioned albums, Bishop showcased the kind of humor and blunt honesty which allows him to blur the line between the recording booth and the confessional booth. Do you believe?
HipHopDX: Alright, we won’t start off with a million Detox questions. How about explaining what’s behind you’re crew WARDOGGZ. That stands for We Are Ready to Die in Order to Glorify God to Zion, right?
Bishop Lamont: Yeah, it’s just for the gospel man. It’s a lot of different cats from different walks of life that believe in doing something right for their people and for the most high. It’s like the good Illuminati.
