Video: Chipmunk Interview + Freestyle w/ DJ Semtex

Thursday, June 25th, 2009

DJ Semtex gives this kid the big co-sign:

One of the UK’s finest! At the age of 18, he’s got the streets locked, he’s done his grind on the mixtape circuit, and he’s invaded the airwaves. At the age of 18, he gives better interviews than most of your favourite rappers who have been in the game for years. Straight out of College, he’s just signed to Columbia Records and is about to release his debut album. Get used to him, he is about to take his grind to the next level.

Chipmunk talks on:

*How he got the name
*The current state of Grime.
*How to write a rap.
*The Forth-coming album and a lot more.

Watch out for the killer bars towards the end of the clip.
