Nitasha does an exclusive interview with Polow's Mob TV whose channel on Youtube is causing a stir in the US. You get to see interview's with artist's, behind the scenes footage and much more. We talk about Mob TV's work, music and you can check how things go on the 'Quick Fire, Nothing To Do With Anything' round. Take a read!
Can you describe Polow Mob TV and what you do?
Polow's Mob Tv is a series which is based on like reality TV with a lot of artist's. I take you in the life of an artist and show you up close and personal with music videos, interviews, behind the scenes, live performance's. The show is really good with everyday that passes, it gets a bigger buzz and more artist's want to get involved with new episodes dropped every week plus, I also book shows, do photography, and shoot music video's among other things but if you haven't seen Mob TV you definitely need to check it out.
How did Mob TV start?
Mob TV was started by me and a friend. Basically, he came up with an idea to make a DVD called Mob TV and approached me with the idea because I was already cool with a lot of artist's such as Lil O, ESG, Lil Flip, Big Pokey, Lil Keke, Trae, Zro, Yungstar, Mr 32 and Paul Wall. So I hit up people I was cool with and spoke to them about being part of Mob TV and everybody was with it so I started setting stuff up. I went and took out some loans, got some equipment and Mob TV was born. That was the original Mob TV, but due to me and my friend not seeing eye to eye and wanting to go different directions with Mob TV, we parted ways and I started Polow's Mob TV, basically doing the same stuff I was already doing minus all the BS. Like I say to people all the time in this industry, you've got to build bridges, not burn them.
How many members are part of the Mob TV team and what are their roles?
Like my homie Dc and Yungstar say, I keep my circle small like a fruit loop. But I have three people I mess with that work with me, Grant Farek G Design who does videos with me and who showed me how to edit among other things. Giovanni Tha King who also helps out with videos and photos and Trouble City who runs the second view camera and also does photos. That's the team, I do a lot solo but they help out when they can. You can follow them on Twitter @GrantFarek @GiovanniThaKing @RichieValenz100 and you can follow me @PolowMobTv
Which music video do you wish Mob TV were a part of?
Any big name that's putting out real music I would like to be a part of.
Who has been the most interesting music artist you have worked with?
There's lots but just to name a couple Mystikal, Waka Flocka, Gorilla Zoe, Trina, Lil Flip, Esg, Lil O, Zro. Anyone out of the Screwed Up Click Murphy Lee, T Cash, Treal Lee & Prince Rick, Trai D, Killa Kyleon. J Dawg, Just Brittany, Quietus Khan, T Toke, Hustler E, Kirko Bangz, Webbie. I mean there's a lot of real humble people in the industry and I'm just blessed to work with people like that.
Are there any UK artists that have caught your eye?
I'm going to be real, I'm from the south and that's what type of music I be on. I really haven't been on no UK artist but I don't live over there either so I don't know what's hot and what the DJ's are spinning over there it's hard for me to answer that question but I'm sure y'all do have some raw talent over there and I salute all the artist's over there getting it in.
Where would you like to see Mob TV in 5 years?
On TV like on MTV or Vh1 is where I would like to see Mob TV 5 years from now, just being a house hold name and take care of my family and not having to worry about money is where I'd like to see it.

Let's see how will you do in the 'Quick Fire, Nothing To Do With Anything' round......
OK let's do it.
UK or US music?
Have to say US off top just because that's what I grew up on
Name 2 artists whose fashion you like?
That is a very hard question. I'd have to say my own, I got the nickname 'King Of Fresh' and my shoe game, hat game, wardrobe is sick but I can give you 3 artist's instead of 2 who I think stay fly fitted. I'd have to say Big Sean, Killa Kyleon & Wiz Khalifa be sporting some dope fits.
Home cooked or dining in a restaurant?
I'm a top chef so I say home cooked. I love to cook, it's relaxing to me and I go hard plus, the ladies love a guy who can cook so fellows get your cooking skills up
I have never............................?
I have never used someone to get where I am at today. I have never been fake. I have never screwed someone over. I have never put out work and claim it to be mine. I have never put out lies about people, only facts. I can go all day on the 'I have never's'.
Tea or coffee?
Like them both. StarBucks on the coffee and for tea, y'all not going to know about this because y'all over seas, but if anyone who reads this is ever in Texas, you got to hit up Bush's Chicken, I swear they have the best sweet tea.
What's the last song you listened to on your music player?
I'm jamming Big Sean, Killa Kyleon, Trai D, Murphy Lee, all the Screwed Up Click stuff from Zro, Esg, Lil O, Lil Flip, Lil Keke, Gorilla Zoe, Trina, Waka Flocka, J Dawg, T Cash, Kirko Bangz, Kanye West. I love good music.
Thanks!
