MOP IS KEEPING IT HARDCORE

M.O.P. is working on their G-Unit debut album but some of the group’s diehard fans are concerned that they may move away from their underground hardcore sound to the more radio friendly G-Unit formula. Group founder Laze E. Laze explained that M.O.P. would never let anything happen to the group’s brand even if a major label is involved. Laze said,

M.O.P.’s last official release was 2000’s Warriorz.

“M.O.P. is a brand. It’s bigger than the music. All due respect to Roc-A-Fella and all the other labels, it’s bigger than anything else. This brand, M.O.P., is a solid brand that we built from the ground up. We have slaved. We have fought. We have done what we had to do to get to where we had to go and this brand will stand and remain. It’s bigger than us. It’s bigger than me, it’s bigger than him, it’s bigger than this dude right here. It’s what we do. It’s the life that we live and we tie it into people. You ain’t got to be black. You ain’t got to be white.”
