BANG! @southernvangard #radio @realjlive #interview #session available now! J was kind enough to come out to the lab for our 2nd in-studio interview - it's always a special treat to have folks come by the Dirty Blanket in person. We kick it with J on the new LP, "His Own Self", his renewed focus and attention on being more prolific in the short attention span environment of today, as well as releasing two LP’s within 12 months of one another. We also go in on J's early days coming up in NY, busting onto the burgeoning NY indy hip-hop scene in the mid-90s with Braggin' Writes, getting caught up in major label mania, the eventual release of "The Best Part" and his subsequent transition into ultimate independence over the past 20 years. Folks - Meeks and J go in on the love of their wardrobe archive as we go through a few joints from the new album - you don’t want to miss it - not to mention J’s fondness for the Atlanta hip-hop scene today and how it reminds him of the NY glory days of the mid to late 90s. Enjoy, tell your friends and cop “His Own Self” March 31st on @mortiermusic // #hiphop #rap #interviews #DJ #mix #podcast #ATL #WORLDWIDE
