A few questions about the project with Switch…

  • What Does Sonic Therapy mean to you? What is Sonic Therapy?

“Well Sonic Therapy to me is the ability to use music as a healthy form of coping with life. I can’t front though I didn’t come up with the title, one of the beats that actually didn’t end up making this album was intended to be on it was called sonic herbal therapy haha so I just shortened it and Yesh liked it.. “

  • Recently there has been discussions on mental health. What is your definition of mental health, what do you think is the best treatment for people with mental health concerns or coping with life? What about music helps you cope with life? What works for you?

“word my definition of mental health is just really how someone feels ya know emotionally. treatment obviously varies based on the condition, some require medication some do not i find almost all mental health concerns improve with some form talk therapy not necessarily in a professional setting but just talking about it. What helps me coping with life is music and weed hahah and my girlfriend. Some days are easier than others for sure Music helps me because I get something positive out of often negative experiences and or thoughts, it turns a negative into a positive and you always have something tangible by the end which is what makes it all worth it, accomplishing something always feels good, there is a lot to accomplish with music. “

  • Are there any new producers you are working with on this project? Who did you work with on this project?

“Yea fam this project is actually all produced by Yeshintae the homie from California, we’ve been working together for about ten years now so everything is down to a science. I have two features on this project, zzzthesleepyhustler and prada west..”

  • How would you say your sound had evolved into this project. Give us a brief timeline/snapshot of your personal progression?

“Word fam well this project was actually recorded over a long period of time. Some of the songs intended for this project ended up on Dirt On My Hands. Originally this was a 14 track LP, but is now just 8 songs… So all in all this projects been in the works almost a year. It’s mostly lo-fi dark kinda shit, style of it’s own really..”

  • Anything you want to update people with? Recently you went on tour, how was that? Which tracks did you enjoy performing the most? Do you see more live shows in your future?

Tour was dope fam, currently setting up another tour actually, most likely will just do BC and then Canada wide after that! I just want to say get the album! It’s dope and once it’s out which is THIS Saturday June 15th, all the videos will follow! I like to perform different tracks at different venues, but ‘colours’ always hits live that and ‘once again’.

  • Any particular songs off Sonic Therapy you like the most? Why? How would you describe this project?

“I like a-lot of the songs, but my fav is probably ‘stay focused’ or ‘try harder’ I like that joint a lot too. I guess stay focused is my fav because of the layering and the mixing, the beats crazy and I really like what I said on that song, some of my best writing. I would describe this project as new age old school hip hop haha if that makes sense. It’s got a lot of elements of the new school but some old school boom bap lo-fi production, its different then anything else out right now”

  • Anybody you want to shoutout/thank on this project?

“I want to thank Yesh for blessing me with all these beats and Teus for mixing it and making it sound exactly how it’s suppose to that dudes a genius

Mic Crenshaw and Kool Chief Rocker are LOAD B (Last Of A Dying Breed), presenting the Das Leune-directed music video for "Heavy Bag", the new single from their forthcoming album Brink Of Distinction. "Heavy Bag" is the second of two singles produced by Theory Hazit (watch the music video for "Sunlight"), both of which will appear on BOD alongside production from DJ Klavical, DJ Wicked, Prince Elwood Strickland and Trox. Award-winning poet and spoken word artist Kool Chief Rocker was one of three people stabbed in a 2017 hate crime on Portland public transit in which two men died when Rocker came to the defense of two women of color, one of whom was wearing a hijab. Micah was stabbed in the neck but survived. Chicago-born poet and emcee Mic moved to Portland after founding Anti-Racist Action, making him a lead figure in street wars between neo-Nazi skinheads and anti-racist youth in the Midwest in the 80’s and 90’s. Leading bands like Hungry Mob and Suckapunch before establishing his solo career, Crenshaw was 2001's Portland Poetry Slam Grand Slam Champion, a National Poetry Slam finalist, and was voted Portland’s Best Hip Hop Artist by Willamette Week in 2016. Mic co-founded GlobalFam, a non-profit project to create and maintain a computer center for disadvantaged youth in Burundi. Over 400 people have received free training. Mic also partnered with Education WithOut Borders (EWOB), which supports education, music and art initiatives in Portland and beyond and serves as an umbrella for the local Books For Prisoners chapter and GlobalFam itself. Mic's last solo release was Earthbound (miccrenshaw.com). “This song and video are about reconciling contradictions," Crenshaw says. "We aim high but still have to navigate our environments." Brink Of Distinction is set for a summer release.

…… Bring it Back

RICH FROM THE POLE

Rich From The Pole (@richfromthepole) recently released his next project titled, “Richie Rich” a 11 track project with heavy hitting songs. Soul samples, and bars that go H.A.M. this project is very impressive. Our favorites were, Bring it Back, Glass, Pole Walker, Kill Switch, RNS, and Ape Shit. The track that goes the hardest is Double Homi (2nd track) . Overall very strong project. Highly recommend you bump this and add to your Spotify Playlist (follow us here) .

video for “Ape Shit”

Rich from the Pole has been making music for a while now, and you can hear the passion in the lyrics and vocals. On Bring it Back Rich says “Chicago is my city, got a passion for these tracks!”.. very dope project. Again the soul samples, BARS, and story/passion make the whole project entertaining and awesome to listen to.
