Mickey Factz - I’m traveling, meeting people, performing, taking pics, making money. It can’t get no better. People are happy New York has someone who is approaching the game differently.

From the outside looking in at your situation …I see progression do you feel 2008 is the year ?

Mickey Factz - 2008 is gonna be monstrous for me. Hands down. But to be honest, 2009 is gonna be even crazier. I’m still grinding and building the name up. There’s still a lot of people who don’t know me. But that’s gonna change VERY soon.

Who’s some of the people you collaborated with on The Leak ?

Mickey Factz - I did a joint with Knaledge, Kapps, James Watts, Kid Cudi and Jesse Boykins. There’s a couple more that you’ll be hearing from but I don’t wanna spoil it and it’ll be out later on in the year.

Whats good with you and Diddy ? Can we say Bad Boy/GFC ?

Mickey Factz - Diddy is my man. Cool character. Smooth. But right now that’s not a situation that I’m looking to get into at this stage of my career. I’m just weighing my options.

Some people starting to label you a “Hipster” rapper due to your unique sense of fashion and electro sound … What your take on that ?

Mickey Factz - I don’t know what a hipster rapper is really, so I can’t really comment to much on it. I just make all around great music. I’ m a lyricist man!

When If ever would we see a FLASHBACK Vol.2 ?

Mickey Factz - Flashback Vol. 2 is looking like 2009. I’m focusing on The Leak and my album right now. Trust me we ain’t forget.

I’ve heard that you met with Kanye West … How did that go and come about ?

Mickey Factz - Yea, I was originally on the Arms Race remix with Lil Wayne, Travis and Kanye. We met a couple times after that. He came to one of our parties, he invited me to his birthday party, he also invited me to the premiere of the Stronger video. But he’s a busy man so I didn’t expect us to be the best of friends. He’s doing him and I’m being Mickey Factz.

What trend in NYC guys or girls thats just gets on your damn nerves right now ?

Mickey Factz - The 80’s shit. (LAUGHS). Its over. So you know what’s about to happen.

If a artist wants a Mickey Factz feature .. How can they go about getting that done or attempted to be done ?

Mickey Factz - Hit my manager Saint on Myspace and we’ll handle it from there.

Good Looking family for checking in on Def Pen …. Any final words or shout outs ?

Mickey Factz - Guggenheim bitches! The Leak continues and drops every week on tuesday night. The Rockin n Rollin video is dropping in April! I can’t be stopped! GFC what up!! P.Crack I see you girl.
