Sheek Louch Airs Out J-Hood

Sheek Louch's third solo release, Silverback Gorilla, hit shelves today (Mar.18). SOHH caught up with the D-Block front man and chatted him up about his new project, beef with Mobb Deep and his real feelings about J-Hood.
"It ain't nothing," Sheek said of rap group Mobb Deep. "They good dudes. I like Havoc.

Prodigy dissed Sheek in his blog, listing rappers he respected and then calling Sheek "one of the worst ever."
"I know about all the comments Prodigy made about all the rappers, I still like him."
Former D-Block member J-Hood on the other hand..."He's a little clown acting like a little young boy would, just real unappreciative," Sheek told SOHH.
The rapper said he thinks J-Hood set his sights on beef with him because he needed someone to blame for his career not really taking off...

"Somebody gotta be the bad guy," Sheek said. "I took his money, I came in the studio and slapped him, I did this and that ... None of it's true."
And though Sheek did admit he thinks J-Hood has talent, he said there's no place for the former group-mate on a record with himself, D-Block or The Lox, ever.

"It's over," Sheek said. "He can't come back to me, he can't come back to D-Block, The Lox, nothing. Nobody wants to deal with him. They just don't respect his moves."
"I've known him since he was a young boy and when we hear him talking about bustin guns, us back at home, we like, 'aw, c'mon man, when did he resort to that?'" Sheek continued. "It's like, say you got a little brother or sister at home and they start actin' tough. Like now they murderers."

Louch said he, Styles P and Jadakiss gave J-Hood a chance in the industry and he's ungrateful.
"Dealin' with us three, he skipped a lot of stuff that a lot of artists go through," Sheek said. "We had him doing major interviews and major deals. Its people on the grind and been grinding longer than him. Somebody might say he ain't even have no grind."
But Louch said his grind is non stop.

His new album Silverback Gorilla has 18 tracks and every one of them the rapper said is fire.
"The concepts? Lyrically? Forget it," Sheek said. "I'm on a whole other level with this joint."
Fat Joe, Jim Jones, Hell Rell, Bun B, DJ Unk, The Game, up and coming D-Block artist Bully, and of course Styles P and Jada came through with guest features on the disc. Meanwhile Dame Grease, Vinny Idol, Soul G, Red Spyda and others went in on production.
The first single off the album "Good Love," a Red Spyda track, samples the soulful Betty Wright's "Tonight Is The Night," and is getting major nationwide radio play.
D-Block's album is dropping in July and Sheek said the Lox' disc Live, Suffer and Celebrate would be out before that, with a couple of tracks slated to leak shortly. Silverback Gorilla is in stores now via Koch Records.
