The Hook (0:21).
The Interview (1:30).
In today’s political climate, music that speaks to real issues is something I gravitate to more than ever. If you add on wildly creative music to back said real issues, you’ve got me hooked. That’s exactly what we have with today’s guest on the show, Ghais Guevara.
Ghais is a Philly rapper who is unapologetic about his strong communist beliefs, who’s music has quickly achieved strong critical acclaim this year (from the likes of NPR, The Needle Drop, and more), with the release of his impressive new album There Will Be No Super-Slave.
