Lots of artists hate their record label, but the Clipse really, really, really hate their label. In a recent interview at the Manhattan offices of their, um, label, Jive Records, rappers Malice and Pusha-T did some extreme venting. As our interview with them began, Pusha snatched the recorder, looked around conspiratorially and let it out: “I hate Jive. I hate them motherfuckers. With all my heart and all the passion and my soul I hate these bitches. It’s about the lynching of every staff member up in this motherfucker.”
One sticking point? The release date of the Virginia hip-hop duo’s second album, Hell Hath No Fury, has been pushed back three times (most recently to November 28th of this year). Malice and Pusha-T also complained that Jive doesn’t know how to handle rap records, forcing the duo to hire it’s own publicity and marketing teams. “You could ask anyone in here to give you a marketing plan on Clipse and they could never do it,” says Pusha. “It’s like damn, ‘What do you understand about hip-hop? You ain’t had nobody since Spice 1! You don’t know the fucking formula. Everybody in here’s like 50 years old!
“Just drop us,” continued Pusha, “Leave us the fuck alone so we can go where there’s plenty of people like Clipse.”
“Have you ever heard anyone say that they’d be happy to get dropped?” said Malice.
Pusha: “Besides fucking Prince?”
Malice: “Besides Prince.”
“And he carved his own face,” said Push, “which I won’t do. I won’t paint on my face. They ain’t going to drive me fucking loony.”

“I’m sorry to the fans but them crackers wasn’t playin fair at Jive.”
Funny thing is the Neptunes offered to do all of Timberlake’s album for free if Jive went ahead and dropped the Clipse and Jive refused to do either. I thought this business was based on supply and demand. The streets demand that this album be released but Jive won’t supply it. Very weird. Pusha or malice must have fucked the label’s president’s daughter or wife or something…

They know they wrong for lying to the world like this. Jive probably won’t released the album because they know its a bunch of lies. Cocaine wars…these dudes are from the good part of Virginia Beach. They never done none of that bullshit they rhyme about. Especially Pusha. And they said they won’t paint on a face. They did years ago. LIARS. They suck. Without Phsrrell, they would be nothing.
