On this episode of CWR Mista Montana and Menace venture south with:
Fresh off the release of his recently released Intermission mixtape, Freeway joins us during an intermission to discuss his forthcoming Roc-A-Fella Records documentary, the revelation of a new State Property album and projects with Brother Ali and The Jacka in a self-assured and colourful interview with one of Hip Hop's brightest lights. We also discuss future collaborations with rising Philly heavyweight Jakk Frost, his hopes of working with Kanye West again and much more!
Rapper Big Pooh has every reason to be proud. His new album Dirty Pretty Things and self-owned record label are causing a buzz rarely seen outside wasp nests, so it was a true honour to talk with the man himself. Expect the unexpected as Pooh breaks down the creation of his new opus, 9th Wonder, Phonte, his forthcoming colabs and his future work.
More than ever before, Consequence is on demand. With a new project entitled Curb Certified on the horizon and a new-found passion in growing his own business with his label Bandcamp Records, Cons is on his own spaceship right now. In this interview the ever optimistic and ambitious Consequence talks the creation of Curb Certified and its recent leaks, plans of working with DJ Premier, Jay Dilla, hardships of his past, Don't Quit Your Day Job and it's relevance with today’s political climate plus more.
Statik Selektah joins us in busy form to discuss his new production for Eminem, to be featured on Eminem's forthcoming collaborative effort with Obie Trice. Forever working, Statik tells of his plans to make an album in a day with Bun B, as well as his reaction of some people to his latest compilation Population Control. We take time to discuss Nas' new album, a project that Statik has a firm hand in, as well as his hopes to work on future Slaughterhouse material. A rapid update.
Blacastan is a master and builder, crafting some of Hip Hop' strongest architecture, so it was a pleasure to build with the workhorse about his new project; Master Builder 2, which is scheduled for release early 2012. We also talk his recent accomplishments such as his recent induction into the Demigodz, landing a spot on Violence Begets Violence, forthcoming collaborations wth AOTP and Celph Titled, performing, his grass roots grind and more before being joined by Jus Allah and Virtuoso for an update on their new projects and a fatal three way acapella. Essential listening!
The People Under The Stairs are back, joining us in the form of one half of the group's Thes-One to hold a detailed discussion on their fantastic album Highlighter. Rated as one of the most consistently innovative groups to emerge from L.A., Thes-One talks us through the creation of Highlighter and identifies the reasons behind choosing to record it at multiple hand-picked studios in Los Angeles. In addition to the aesthetics of this, we also talk sampling, artwork, longevity, touring and more in an definitive highlight interview.
Eligh and Amplive step into the studio for a candid therapy session and discussion regarding their forthcoming release Therapy At 3. We discuss the origins of the album and the aesthetics of its creation, Eligh's writing process, the therapy of touring versus the therapy of recording, being therapists of each others work together in the process of communication, creative approaches and more. In addition, we talk the future of both Eligh and Amp-Live, which will include a tour in support of Therapy At 3, a potential collaborative project between Grouch, Eligh and Zion-I and a new Livin' Legends album next year!
Hasan Salaam nobly enters the show filled with anticipation for his forthcoming release Music Is My Weapon, available Dec 6th. We discuss the importance of this new project, with all of the proceeds being actively used to fund the building of All profits from the sale of the EP will be used to fund the building of a school, clean water well, and medical clinic in Guinea-Bissau, West Africa. YOU must support this justified cause HERE and watch Hasan's excellent new music video for the single 1911 HERE In addition to a frank discussion regarding these efforts to provide change to a country that remains one of the poorest and least politically stable in the world, we find time to discuss the new range of producers Hasan is working with including The Snowgoons and CWR's long-time affiliate Cross Bone T
J-Zone dramatically leaps onto the show live from a car journey to discuss his brand new book Root For The Villain, available to purchase HERE .Far from a comfortable, cozy documentation of a glamorous Rap Life, this piece of brutally frank and at times, painfully truthful literature is an essential read. We take time to discuss the creation of the book, J-Zone's musings regarding future musical output, Heavy D's sad passing and a mutual celebration of Too Much Trouble's mass murdering midget, Bar-None. As live as it gets. Ho.
AND THAT'S NOT ALL!
