Video: Curtis Reworking BISD, 70% New Material
Tim Kash: Before I Self Destruct, you completed it a while back. How different is it now than it was before?
Curtis: It’s about 30 percent of what I had when I felt like I was finished.
Tim Kash: What’s the biggest change in it?
Curtis: The production. Dre made a lot more music that’s on the actual album. I rewrote some concepts, cuz to me sometimes, it would sound like I’m absolutely out my mind if I play you the music. But it gets dated because I’ve been playing it to myself for so long that I’m no longer as excited as I was when wrote it for the first time. So I’m making new material and adding it to the actual project.
Tim Kash: You always like to write about stuff that’s current and up-to-date, what are you writing about right now.
Curtis: I’ve been doing conceptually doing some things that directly apply to the initial concept of Before I Self Destruct and I wrote, produced, and directed my first screenplay. It’ll actually be in the album packaging, so you get the DVD when you get the actual album. I just wanted to make sure my fans have the opportunity to see my first [full length directorial] effort. It allowed me to create cause and effect. A lot of times when a song is three minutes you can only make descriptions of actions. You can’t create reason for why a person would do something like that or how it could happen.
I doubt Curtis’ “directorial skills” have improved much since the horrible Funeral Music video, when Curtis decided to direct videos himself.

I doubt Curtis’ “directorial skills” have improved much since the horrible Funeral Music video, when Curtis decided to direct videos himself and DanTheMan (director of all those dope RadioPlanet.tv videos) left him.
(Hmmm, DanTheMan’s interview from earlier today seems to have been taken down…)
