Read below: outtake from interview with Psalm One, post-feminist identity Q- grizz le beast, "why you a hoe?"[ebony eyez vs. supermode, prior rmxers]
- grizz le beast @ MySpace [anomalous: mp3s for download there]
EWV: You say "bitch" and "ho" sometimes...
Psalm One: Yeah... it's a weird thing. It's the same thing like with being black and the n-word youknowwhatimean?--what context is it ok? And sometimes you don't know. I swear sometimes, I'll hear somebody say "oh that bitch" or "that ho" and I'll cringe.
But I know I say the shit all the time. I say bitch and ho like 5 times a day youknowhatimean... describing different people, different genders--just, people. Like "bitch" to me doesn't necessarily mean a chick, but I do describe chicks as bitches sometimes. it definitely depends on the context...
Like there's a joke where Money Mike says "I call you bitches cause I don't know your names individually."[laughing]youknowwhatimean, like that's funny. [all in the delivery, ed.]
But I wouldn't want him comin' up and being like "hey bitch", you know?. It's sorta weird. It's a very touchy subject--but I'd like to think that my bitches and hos come out and you kinda know where I'm going with it. I kinda specifically say "this is why i'm using this word"--[missing passage] and I try not to call [what?] because that's just disrespectful. My "bitches" and "hos" are just like a general, "you're acting like an asshole."
EWV: Those terms are kind of gendered--is saying "asshole" more constructive?
PO: Yeah, exactly. Yeah, like, I'd probably call like if a girl was pissin' me off i'd be like "what a fuckin' bitch". But if a guy was pissin' me off, i'd probably be more inclined to be like might say bitch, but I would probably be like "what an asshole". They're both negative, and both can be hurtful terms so in that sense i shouldn't say it all. But at the same time, like, as far as gender-specific: I would call a certain woman a bitch, I wouldn't call all women bitches, i guess that's probably is the difference. Like I know some dudes, they address women as bitches--that to me is ridiculous.
Bonus: Rob Dz to Tom Laskin in '05:
'I think we're all out here for the future,' he says slowly, measuring each word. 'You want everyone to dance, but you want to say the right things. We don't want to be calling everyone bitches and hos.'
