The Interview (1:51).
“It’s important to me to be an original human being. It’s not important to me to be original or different in my music. It’s important to me to be original and different in every single thing I do.”
This is a direct quote from the upcoming interview with R.A.P. Ferreira you are about to hear, and I think that speaks for itself.
As one of the champions of smart indie underground hip-hop for over a decade, and leader of the almighty Ruby Yacht crew, R.A.P. Ferreira has firmly established himself as one of one… never to be duplicated, or replaced.
His thoughtful, coy cockiness, and unapologetically strong sense of self has made me a huge fan of his for many years. It was a true honour to pick his brain, and see that charisma and passion come through in our conversation. This is a MUST listen.
