Tony Yayo: What's good AllHipHop, what y'all talking about today - Cam getting shot?

AllHipHop.com: That was yesterday, yeah.

Tony Yayo: Yeah, it's f**ked up man. That's why I got a bulletproof instead of a Ferrari.

AllHipHop.com: You ain't getting caught in a Ferrari - huh?
Tony Yayo: Nope, my s**t stops AK's and everything. I'm good. But what's good?

AllHipHop.com: I know you are promoting 50's new video game - Bulletproof - so can you tell us about the game and what the storyline is all about?

Tony Yayo: Well, what makes this different from any game on the market is, it's written by the legendary Terry Winters. He is the person who wrote to the Get Rich Or Die Tryin' movie. So that is what makes it a good game and of course, you know it has a good storyline because he wrote it. And the game has me, 50, Buck, and Banks in it. In the game, I'm an expert on bombs. Banks is an electronics expert who can pick doors and things like that. Buck is like the fastest runner in the game.

AllHipHop.com: What video games did you play growing up?

Tony Yayo: My favorite game was Mike Tyson's Punch Out for the first Nintendo. ?Glass Joe? - that was my s**t right there. Cobra was ill. Nintendo had a lot of ill games back in the day. of course, Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat for the Super Nintendo. I always been a game fanatic though. I just bought Warriors.

AllHipHop.com: Yeah, I heard that's a hot game.

Tony Yayo: Yeah, I am waiting for our game to come out so bad that I had to buy one today. So I just bought it this morning. I also like Live '06 right now. I'm not really into Madden like I used to be, I'm more of a basketball fan. I'm into action games like Punisher, where you have kill moves. That's why our game is so ill, because we have the special kills. I was playing our game for two hours. I just came from Las Vegas because we had 50's movie premier and everybody was there - 50, Jimmy Iovine, Paul Rosenberg, Floyd Mayweather - there was a lot of people. But they had a room with nothing but flat screens and you could play video games. I was playing our game for about two hours - for real.

AllHipHop.com: Many are blaming violent video games, like Grand Theft Auto, for violent acts by younger kids these days. But why do you think people focus on things like video games and Hip-Hop, and say they influence violence, but not movies. I mean, Arnold Schwarzenegger has killed thousands of people in movies, and now he is the governor.

Tony Yayo: Yeah, of course. Look at movies like The Matrix - millions of bullets flying everywhere and you don't hear nobody complaining. People always need something to blame things on. If somebody gets shot, they automatically blame it on G-Unit. We are only giving you the harsh realities of our life and what's going on in the hood and in the streets. I just got out of jail, so right now I'm just chillin'. I'm just trying to get more money and more money. But Hip-Hop always gets blamed. Look at a movie like Scarface. That movie is the reason why a lot of people want to sell drugs. Am I right?

AllHipHop.com: Yeah, that movie has had a huge influence on Hip-Hop.

Tony Yayo: Look at a movie like Godfather III. When that came out in 1990, the Sunrise Movie Theater got shot up. That movie is the reason why they put metal detectors in the Sunrise in Queens. I think it?s the media, because they always give us a bad rap, but dudes are just trying to get their money. Now that we are out the 'hood, we are not selling drugs or shooting people, even though the media portrays us as doing so. We are in more trouble now because of the media.
