I think it's a natural progression. The door have been nudged on and pushed on for years, and it's sort of giving way now. If you research music, the foundation of most contemporary music originates from the South. It's just the natural progression of time and music that it comes back to the place where it originated from. I think it's beautiful, and snap is a new movement that allows people to stay current and allows people to dance again. Everybody wants to be hard, everybody wants to be gangsters. Yeah, that's cool but we also gotta learn how to have fun.
[Banner felt somewhat prepared...
[Banner felt somewhat prepared for the role, having grown up watching rock videos on MTV, but he still went to the other David for advice.] David said, 'Whatever you do, do it with style, 'cause the ladies love me, so the ladies have to love you too,' ... And I told him, 'Dave, you don't have to [worry].'
He looked better than he ever ...
He looked better than he ever looked to me. But he's the one who decides whether he can look at himself in the daytime. The one thing you have to understand about comedians is, the more they make people smile, the more pain that they usually feel inside.
Honestly, I have a tendency no...
Honestly, I have a tendency not to enjoy my work, and the one thing that I got from Samuel Jackson is ... he wants me to enjoy it, ... He tells me that all the time, 'Loosen up a little bit.' But the thing is, me coming from Mississippi, I understand these opportunities are not readily available to my people. So I have to make sure that everything that I do, I do it to the best of my ability because it's a reflection of more than just me. When people look at David Banner they see Mississippi, so I have to make sure that it's good. And you have to understand my acting debut was with Samuel L. Jackson, so imagine that flavor. If you suck and he is as good as he is, he's going to show you how bad you suck in front of the whole world.
It's like an alternate world. ...
It's like an alternate world. It's a day in the life of the actual group, so they took little quirks about everybody's personality and amplified it a whole lot. David the drummer is the pretty boy in the group, so he keeps a mirror around, he has to make sure that he's tight before he goes onstage.
[And in the next issue of Ozon...
[And in the next issue of Ozone magazine, the rapper David Banner expanded the indictment of Bush to include a disregard not just for blacks, but for the poor as well.] I'm glad Kanye said what he said on NBC, ... The president never gave a damn about black folks.

It's about
a white family and a black family living in modern day North Mississippi but
the white family's mind set is that of 1869 and no matter what you do it won't
change, they still think and talk the way they would in 1869, so it's really
pushing it, ... My character is a member of black rock
band who works at Sonic, but he is moving upward and is in direct conflict with
the white family. I think that it's really going to push the envelope and address
the issue of race relations in America, even if we don't want to.
