“Being underrated, it’s cool for me, because it lets me know people still respect what I have to say.”

Underrated/overrated is a fickle game, but the consensus is that  Cyhi the Prynce is UNDERRATED — at least until he releases his debut album No Dope on Sunday lataer this year. In a HNHH interview down at SXSW, Cyhi spoke on the “underrated” label, why he skims literature (but doesn’t read), and the progress of G.O.O.D. Music’s long-awaited compilation album Cruel Winter.”It’s both sides of the coin, but I do like it,” Cyhi said of being “underrated.” “A lot of my fans don’t understand my business situation. They just want music! To be able to hold on and sustain the mystique that I have throughout the year, and my situation was terrible — now I have the greatest situation in the world. It’s like, ‘oh, we’re about to kick ass!’ So, being underrated, it’s cool for me, because it lets me know people still respect what I have to say.”
