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.

Artist On The Rise: Falside (August Edition)

The first time I heard the name Falside was from someone telling me about this young guy who was barely 18 and making crazy dope tracks for legends like Vast Aire. I took a listen and thought this guy was insane. The first time I met Falside he kept saying how I should stop promoting garbage. I told him I gotta give a fair chance to everyone, but I did respect the honesty. This interview is all honesty.

Artists On The Rise: SBO (July Edition)

Sbo is probably one of the most slept on emcee’s in the 401 scene right now. The man has the heart to take it to the next level and the talent to bring the heat. I have personally seen the man move and make magic on stage and well I hope you have the opportunity to witness the same very soon, because the man is always doing shows with someone.

ladies and gentlepeople, I present:

Artist On The Rise: Janks (June Edition)

Janks (Formerly of Concious Insanity) has been only involved in the RI scene for a hot minute. I first witnessed his precense when I was on stage and he was (for some reason) filming my performance. I thought this was awesome, because as far as I know he didnt film anyone else that night and I was only there for the open mic, but enough about me, lets talk about Janks.

This man is probably one of the hardest working people in the RI scene right now! He formed Concious Insanity eariler this year and since then has been doing nonstop shows, he cuts, he raps, what cant he do!
