Aside from being a member of one of the biggest crews to come out of Rhode Island, Jahpan’s been doing his own shit for a very long time now, making moves with reknowned underground groups such as People Under The Stairs and Time Machine, doing shows all around the country and globe, and perfecting his own solo joint, An Album Called Life, which is due out at the end of August for your listening pleasure. I kicked it with Jahpan to find out a little more about the album, and also what he thinks about the New Boys, being snubbed for shows in his hometown, and how the city of LA is treating him.
Check out the full interview after the jump.
