Slick Rick Talks Citizenship, Politics & More With Billboard

Billboard caught up with Slick Rick at the U.S. District Court in Manhattan Friday, April 15, where he was sworn in as a citizen of the United States after a 23-year legal battle. Now that he's an official U.S. citizen, Rick plans to do a little voting and a little traveling. But that's not all! He's also looking to work on new music. “I still want to break into some new stuff here and there. So when the opportunity arises, gotta dust off my shoulders, and may be able to think of a song idea here and there,” he said. “It couldn’t hurt. We can just throw it out on the Internet or with a new artist. Just for fun.”
