| Mase is the god father
of the slow rap game. Some say Fabolous and up and coming
rappers like Lloyd Banks owe their style to Mase. Mase has
nothing but love for the rappers who were influenced by
his style, in an MTV article when asked about the Mase Juniors
out there Mase says "I think that was a beautiful thing.
You know, I'm flattered to know that somebody appreciates
the work that I put out. So that's the best way to answer
that.
Mase's comeback single "Welcome
Back" went to radio in May and completely took off
becoming one of the most added songs to radio. Based by
the success of the comeback song the people still love
Mase. In the first part of his career, Mase was so much
seen as Puffy's little sidekick. In his comeback single
their is not even a mention of Puff although Mase does
continue to rep for Bad Boy referring to himself as "a
Bad Boy gone clean." However, Diddy himself does
appear in the "Welcome Back" video as a reporter.
In a recent MTV.COM article Mase hinted that he would
like to step away from the collaborations although a collaboration
between him and Nelly is what sparked his return to the
game.
Mase is an extremely spiritual young man. He still has
his ministry. There haven't been many rappers who are
ministers. By the time that Hammer became a minister his
rap career was pretty much on the skids. Mase has promised
that his new music will be fun, not sexually oriented
and and he won't curse. It's not everyday that someone
can be out of the game for so long and to just get back
into heavy rotation. Only time will tell if Mase is going
to be big again, but one thing for sure he seems like
he is quite content with his life and the game this time
around.
Mase's album is due out on August 24th.
