Video: Folk & Stress Interview w/ iHipHop

Friday, February 26th, 2010

Brothers Folk & Stress spoke to iHipHop this week.

This was definitely one of the most fun interviews I have ever done. It was also the only interview that I’ve ever gone to where the rappers just wanted to…rap. So we burned a couple down, and I let the camera roll as Stress went the f*ck in at Folk’s Williamsburg apartment. There was also some very interesting dialogue. Namely that Folk & Stress were discovered by recently convicted former NBA star Jayson Williams. They recant being whisked away to Aspen and studio sessions at Jay-Z’s spot. How “scenesters” are ruining hip-hop and their influences consisting of Charles Manson, Kurt Vonnegut & Glen Beck were also touched on. F&S also declare that they are “your favorite rapper’s, least favorite rapper”, and how their life is not “a movie”

Hit the jump for the rest of the interview. They got a show tomorrow night at Santos with DJ Babu, Fashawn & Cory Gunz.

Video: Jay Electronica x Red Bull Music Academy

Friday, February 26th, 2010

From when Jay was in LDN last Thursday. As they so eloquently put it:

With more anticipation around his Act II track than the rest of hip hop’s class of ’10 combined, and another project with fellow supa emcees Mos Def and Curren$y in the making, the future couldn’t look brighter for Jay.

Props to Red Bull Music Academy.

He says that there is an Exhibit B on a hard drive somewhere. And that it’s not the Exhibit A (Remix) that Mos Def was featured on (and was defending.)
