JThousand Interview | Hidden Driveway Show Ep. 44
In the forty-fourth episode of the Hidden Driveway Show, I had the honor of interviewing JThousand, a rapper and producer from Texas. Known for his colorful, spacey yet versatile sound, he's been able to make a name for himself over the years as both a producer an artist in his own right. This is the first interview I'm doing in 2025, I hope you enjoy it!
