Here's the interview that was conducted at: Native Hip Hop Dot Net in the year (2000) and it's recreated with permission here for you to read.
Nhh: How long you been in the native rap game?
BM: I started back in '95, doing local concerts and freestyle battles.
Nhh: You've probably seen, and been involved, in some online battles. Would you think it wise to post lyrics over the internet? Why, or why not?
BM: Truthfully, I have an endless amount of lyrics and mettaphores. I really don't care to spit a little of what I got on my c.d.'s. I have all the copyrights, so that's all good.
Nhh: You're over there on the coast, Eastside Tacoma. How are native represented over that way, in the music sense?
BM: I have, personally, motivated a lot of other Natives to do some thangz, but really it's only me and Haida putting it down.
Nhh: Looking forward to performing at I-Wa-Sil?
BM: Yeah! We finalized it all today (March 30, 2000). Haida and I, we'll meet to discuss the lay out of the concert. We are excpecting over 4,000 Native youth to represnt there!!
Nhh: You're also a hoop/fancy dancer. What pow-wows do you regularly attend?
BM: I've been dancing for over 10 years now. The pow-wows I attend are: Day Break Star, Pi-Yump-Sha, G.O.N.A. (Gathering of Nations), Buffalo Jump, Puyallup Tribal, Omak Stampede, and Browning Indian Days.
Nhh: Usually, every native has their share of drama going on. What have you done, to ease up out of some major drama?
BM: I committed myself to my music and pow-wows as a way of life and as a way to be free from them streets.
Nhh: With this soon to be released album you have in the works, what are people gonna see from you on it? What direction you going with this album?
BM: I want people to see a lot of talent coming together, a lot of hard work, efforts of moving towards a positive direction and motivation. All of this in one to bring an album to remember to, hopefully, inspire and open new doorways for our youth. West Coast and Bay Area flavor mixed all in one!
Nhh: You've posted up before, that natives in the rap game, lack real beats? What was the meaning of that, on your part?
BM: What I meant was some of the beats I was hearing, needed some real help on a positive, criticism note! As Natives, we represent a lot more than ourselves. We represent each other. I was giving some chances for other groups to get hooked up on some dope and professional beats, without any strings attached! Just to represent unity and Native Pride!!
Nhh: The music business is a hard business to get involved in, and stay straight in. For example, Death Row, Ruthless, and even No Limit are starting to a downfall after being somewhat prominent figures in the game. How do you expect your presence will remain instilled in the game for a long period of time?
BM: For one, movement! Movement is the key to keep anything alive and fresh! Also, returning all I learned back to my people so the game will live on!!
Nhh: Who are some of the biggest influences in your life?
BM: The Great Spirit, Chief Joseph, all my ancestors, my young Nativez out on them streetz, like I was, to bring them a better future!
Nhh: What are 3 things that set you apart from anyone else?
BM: Spirit, Commitment, & Freedom
Nhh: Who's your favorite NBA player(s)? Team?
BM: Gary Payton, my dog!! We be club'n together some times!
Team: No favorites
Nhh: Where do you see yourself in about 5 years from now?
BM: Giving back all I can to my peeps!
Nhh: 5 years ago, would you have seen yourself where you are now?
BM: Exactly where I am now.
Nhh: If given the chance to redo history, for yourself, are there any moments, or events you would change?
BM: No, I'm glad to be who I am today.
Nhh: Would you pay to see a cheech and chong reunion film?
BM: Hell yeah!
Nhh: If you were feeling really down, what, or who, could get you out of that state of mind consistantly?
BM: My prayers.
Nhh: How would you describe your lyrical style?
BM: Like opening up any door I want.
Nhh: Will you be looking at who gets involved in the open mic at I-Wa-Sil?
BM: Hell yeah! I'm on a scouting mission for our new CD!
Nhh: If you weren't doing this music thing now, what would be happening with yourself?
BM: Focusing all on the pow wow's.
Nhh: What's the best piece of advice you have gotten thus far?
BM: To believe in myself.
Nhh: Hunt or Fish at all? If so, lay down one of your stories to share with those reading this interview.
BM: I can remember fishing on the river at about 9 years old, running with my Dad while we were getting shot at from the State fish and wild life agents.
Nhh: Bad Medecine? How'd that name come about?
BM: A couple of people were spreading rumors that I was using "bad medicine." So, I took that name to shove it back in their faces. Later, it became a meaning to me of what has happened to our people over the last 500 years.
Nhh: Who would you like to send shouts out to?
BM: Haida, Lucky *R.I.P, Kerry Fench *R.I.P, Micheal Mitchel *R.I.P, Nate -- my bro, Rachel -- my sis, Brandon Wright A.K.A. Red hurricane A.K.A. Smiley (doing time in the pen), Raven, Alaina, Trisha, Trina, Kareena, Donna, Yoky, D-Pound, Lil Lucky, Magic, Talon (doing time in the pen), Lenord peltier, Dennis Banks, NGBz, BGD'z, AIM, Mayble, Michel, Autum, April, Sky, Salish!
Nhh: Any final words to share with the readers?
