The IM Interviews, Pt. 2 – Jahpan of Fedd Hill
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.

“One Breath Left” is an exclusive leak from the ongoing collaboration between the emcee/producer combo of B. Dolan and Alias. For the past year, this duo has been in the lab constructing a boom-bap, neo-horrorcore epic they call “Fallen House, Sunken City.” The full length LP is currently scheduled to be released in Winter 2009.
