I’m going to name some females, and you can tell me how you think they’d be in bed. Let’s start with Trina.
Trina is fine. I think she would probably be great in bed, ‘cause I’ve heard more than a few things about her from people in the industry.

Jacki-O?
Jacki-O is sexy. She’s also a good artist.

Britney Spears?
Britney Spears is from Louisiana, so she’s a good country girl. I think she’s really, really attractive but probably not great in bed because of her lack of experience, from what I hear. I think I could teach her a few things. You wouldn’t want to know what they are – that shouldn’t be printed in a magazine (laughing). I’d give her a run for her money.

What do you think about using toys or food in the bedroom?
I got myself, I don’t need no toys. I don’t do no handcuffs or ropes, I’ve got enough toys on my body to keep a person interested.

How would you describe Mr. Magic’s ideal woman?
Mr. Magic’s ideal girl is somebody with a lot of innocence. I’m not really into the freaky type, the ones that have been with too many people. I like innocence, that’s attractive to me. I like a girl with a ponytail that just got out of Catholic school. In that type of situation, I can train ‘em and teach ‘em. That’s what I find attractive about a woman. I don’t like a lot of makeup, I don’t like a lot of fake stuff. Fake fingernails, all the accessories to make a woman beautiful, that isn’t necessary. I like natural beauty. If you wake up in the morning and you’re beautiful, you’ll keep Mr. Magic interested. A woman that makes me happy is a woman who likes me for me, and it has nothing to do with my stardom or money or whatever. A woman who likes Awood, not Mr. Magic. A woman that’s gonna be home cooking dinner and keeping the house clean, because I’m on the road consistently so it’s important to have somebody maintaining my home life.

Do you have a lot of groupies approaching you?
I try to cater to my people as much as I can, remembering that this is the entertainment business. I have to make them feel special because they’re girls that have been buying my CDs. [I’ve had] girls come up to me saying, “Magic, if I had one chance with you…” and it’s so flattering, but I’m sure they wouldn’t want to be treated like a piece of meat. The first time you treat a girl like that, that’s a lost fan. Girls are so emotional. When she say that, she means everything from her heart and soul and if I don’t feel the same and I take advantage, her feelings will get hurt. I try my hardest to treat everybody the same. I get a lot of girls that come and offer me things, but I let ‘em know it’s just music. It’s best for me to chill. You don’t want me to [fuck you] and leave in the morning. You think I’m what you want, but I’m not. You don’t want a man that’s consistently on the road. Women require a lot of attention. So, if you make love or have sex for the first time and then you’re gone for two months, they gonna feel like, “Oh, he hates me.”

Has your sex life changed since you’ve become a celebrity?
Honestly, I’m so focused on my music that my sex life really hasn’t changed. I didn’t need to be a star to have sex. I hate to be a bore for this article, but I’m so focused I don’t really have time to indulge in stuff like that. I’m trying hard to keep my consumers happy. Maybe after I’ve made thirty mil, I can sit back and have all the sex I want. Don’t get me wrong, though, I like women. Women are beautiful. Sex is a wonderful thing, and it’s important to have it in your life. But I try my hardest to stay focused.

Do you think there is such a thing as “too much” sex?
I don’t think there’s such a thing if your life can handle it. If you’re comfortable in life and you’ve achieved all the things you want to, I think you should find some secluded island and fuck your brains out til you die. That’s the best way to go out. But, that’s only if you’re comfortable with your achievements. I think a lot of people’s priorities are messed up. That’s why you’ve got so many whack albums, because [the artists] aren’t focused on the music and they spend too much time fucking.

Most people have the perception that all rappers fuck groupies all the time. Do you think that’s an unfair stereotype?
Actually, I don’t think so. Because I believe that 85% of the people that become stars do [fuck groupies]. And I also believe that’s why you have so many one-hit wonders. The artists that last for years, entertain for years, are the people that’s focused. I guarantee if you go to their hotel room, they’re sleeping. I value sleep. I go straight from one show to another show, so when I do have a break it’s very important for me to sleep. We entertain people, so men watching our shows believe that we’re fuckin’ fifty hoes every night, but that’s unbelievable to me. To stay focused on my work, when I go up to the room it’s time for me to sleep. But, like I said, probably 85% of the [rappers] are doing that, and that’s why their careers probably won’t last.
