Peep this recent interview from Truck North on SixShot.com and Okayplayer. Don't sleep on Truck, this man's delivery is on point....every time. Check him out on The Antidote (older post), and on The Roots albums, Game Theory and Rising Down. You gotta get those Roots tracks on your own, but I got somethin else for you. A intro track, a track with Black Thought produced by Noize Trip, and a track produced by Questlove, all off of Truck's album or mixtape, Northern Exposure. I dunno what the deal is with this album really, aside from the fact that it needs a good mix. It got released but I don't think anyone was paying attention, shit is fire though.
Quoted from SixShot Interview
"Philly is kind of like a double-edged sword. On one side you have the underground, hipster, or backpacker scene, which is bubbling. And on the other side you have the scene that is completely about lyrics, you know what I’m saying? Everybody tries to stay different, but some people try to do it on some commercial sh*t. So you have one side that’s trying to be different and trying to be ahead of the curve, and you have the other side that’s not really pushing the envelope."
Sounds about right to me.
