My first post had to be about Black Hippy.. I am a HUGE, HUGE, fan!
As a fan, I, along with many others have been eagerly anticipating the drop of the first Black Hippy album. In an interview with Karen Civil, Los Angeles rapper ScHoolboy Q revealed that Black Hippy won’t be releasing their group album until they feel it’s a classic project. During the interview with Karen Civil and KarmaLoop TV he explained that the group is more concerned with releasing an album that will “stick.”
“When it’s ready to be a classic,” said ScHoolboy Q when he was asked about a release date for the Black Happy album. “[We’re] not gonna just do it cause everyone else is doing it and everybody just want us to drop a project. We want it to be classic…We want our shit to stick, like classic.”
In the interview ScHoolboy Q also briefly spoke about his solo album which he’s already a couple of tracks into.
“[I’m] about five records in on my album. I think I got a couple singles ready. You never know until it’s that time you know what I’m saying, but I got something,” ScHoolboy Q explained.
Later in the interview Black Hippy’s Ab-Soul gave his thoughts on the group’s first big feature in XXL magazine. While Ab-Soul explained that he wasn’t too overwhelmed by the opportunity he did reveal that he was honoured to be a part of it.
“It’s not like overwhelming, if you will. But we grew up watching XXL too. Who didn’t? You know what I’m saying? It’s definitely an honor,” said Ab-Soul.
I will be seeing Black Hippy member Kendrick Lamar perform at the Electric Ballroom in London on Tuesday (26th), I'll make sure I blog all about it. For now here is my favourite Black Hippy vid. It's not a music video but it is everything I love about Black Hippy. Enjoy...
