James Joyce 1307 is a rapper, producer writer, warrior poet, and label champ of 1307 records. Yayo Kabar is a beatmaker, mixer/masterer/engineer/, overall skilled musician, and scientist. The one-two team of Joyce and Yayo have dropped a new album entitled "Neptune" earlier this week. A staggering work of unique alternative hip hop that has a nearly unmatched seasonal affectation. Two of my favorites to talk to. 1307 Records! We talk about the album, astrology, the value of entertainment, the influence of psychedelia on their work, and more. Listen to "Neptune" by James Joyce 1307 below.
