Uncle Murda looked at Chris Lighty as his "secret weapon," and revealed to VladTV that it was hard for him to deal with Epic Records following the music exec's untimely death. The New York emcee admits that he wasn't surprised when L.A. Reid didn't deal with him directly, but Uncle Murda says he's still getting lots of love in the streets.

The rapper explains that his new single, "Real N***as Back," is getting a lot of play on Shade 45, Hot 97, and Power 105.1, and adds that he's bringing authentic street rap back with the new track.
