Episode 28: Navy Blue
My guest this week is rapper, producer, model, skateboarder, and graphic designer Navy Blue. We spoke about Sister Act 2, the Queen Latifah movie Beauty Shop, growing up on VHS tapes, being a goofball, Ghost of Tsushima, what makes a “conscious” rapper, how Ka, Earl Sweatshirt, and Alchemist have inspired his artistry, the difference between producing for yourself and producing for others, the creative process behind his last two albums Song of Sage: Post Panic and Navy’s Reprise, and more crazy stories and anecdotes than I can remember.
Song of Sage: Post Panic and Navy's Reprise are both available wherever music is sold, streamed, or stolen. Consider buying Song of Sage directly from Navy's Bandcamp page and Navy's Reprise directly from his website.
