FRANK151: Tell us about your experiences so far.
Matsu: When I was a young, I belonged to Bousouzoku and then I became a member of a gang. I was involved with so many bad things at that time; I was so bad that I was kicked out of the gang. Then when I was eighteen years old, I became a drug dealer. Now, I am a Reggae DJ.
FRANK151: Why did you became a Reggae DJ?
Matsu: First, actually I was a rapper because I wantedto be popular. I am good at convincing people by my skillful talk whenever I am arguing with somebody, so I thought that could be one of my skills for being a rapper. I now know that it is better for me to be a Raggae DJ than being a rapper because I can sing my true life as I like.
My lyrics are about real life and my experiences on the street. That is easy for people to understand. I think music is the way to tell people what I think, so I do not sing about such ridiculous things as just enjoying the music or smoking weed.
In today's Reggae scene, most artists just focus on making money and the scene itself has became broken down. They think that it is all good for them to just appear on TV and become stars like people in the American music scene. I think it is not good for their reputations to sing about peaceful things.
FRANK151: Tell us more about your time growing up in the streets.
Matsu: There has been a Chinese gang in my hometown since I was young. They do not understand Japanese, so we always fight each other when we are face to face. I have a friend who once said "BANRI NO CHOUJOU" and then was shot in the arm with an industrial stapler by some Chinese guys. Another friend was hit on his head with a hatchet. They are outsiders who do not know their nationality. They can cut people with their sword.
Then I took cara of the BOUSOUZOKU named "ZENNTOURENGOU". I was a member of the red gang. I wiped out most members of the blue gang whenever I saw them all over Tokyo. I was brought up in this environment my whole life, so these things are a part of who I am. Currently, there are few troubles, there is peace. We do not face such things if we are professional in this kind of scene.
FRANK151: Tell us about Tokyo.
Matsu: Tokyo is a battlefield in my life. I think that it is totally different from the place where people imagine. Generally speaking, people imagine Tokyo as a gorgeous place filled with glaring neon signs, but for me, here is just a battlefield where Yakuza hangs out.
I've got the skill to protect myself and survive in that battlefield. I do not totally care what others say about me, even if that means I am a bad and scary person to them. This is what I am. If not, there is no meaning for me to live in this world. I can tell you more interesting stories if you stop the tape recorder.....
