VladTV Battle Rap Journalist Michael Hughes caught up with Detroit spitter Calicoe at the UW Battle League "High Stakes" press event for an exclusive interview.  Calicoe held nothing back as he firmly vented his frustrations regarding Battle Rap and how he plans on quitting after his battle with Tsu Surf.  

He also spoke openly about how he believes all battlers to be "fake" and guilty of putting on a type of character act in order to win over the crowd, but then act completely differently when cameras aren't rolling.

He concluded by acknowledging that he believes mainstream artists to be guilty of stealing bar structures, lyrics, etc. from various battlers.
