The HipHopHeads Podcast: Bonus Episode (King Author Interview)

Bonus Episode: King Author Interview

King Author has been on a tear since 2020’s Insurgent Theory, which saw the Framingham MC return to the game with a vengeance equal to what’s shown on it’s cover, a recently exploded vehicle engulfed in flames. Since then he’s dropped 5 more projects: 3 EPs (including the Chairman Chow produced Burnt Ships) and 2 full length albums, Transitional Assistance and Killer’s Manual, with the equally prolific Zagnif Nori. His latest project, entitled Now Streaming… is being fully distributed on all DSPs, unlike most of his work which is only available via his BandCamp or on tape via Icy Palms Records. The EP’s lyrical content is equal parts militancy and philosophy with Author putting on a MCing clinic over high quality production from Dark Arts, Willy Low, Quisstar, Chuck Chan and Haleem. The Supervisor caught up with Author over the weekend for an interview available exclusively on thecryptonline.com’s HHH Podcast to discuss his recent high level of output, the underlying philosophy behind his music, some of his influences and what to expect from him in the coming year. Also, be on the look-out for an exclusive, limited run vinyl release of Killer’s Manual on Good Felons Records dropping 1/22/22 and a tape release of his 2017 album Mixed Reality on Icy Palms dropping soon.

The HipHopHeads Podcast: Bonus Episode (GZA/Genius Harvard Lecture)

The GZA has been in Boston the past fews days visiting the most elite schools in the country picking scientists and other genius brains. The other day he stopped by Harvard University and gave a lecture for the Black Mens Forum and basically told the story of his life. The Crypt was in the place to be and we we’re taking video which was prohibited…. Sadly our video was shot basically at the wall but I was able to extract the audio for your listening pleasure. I wasnt able to catch the whole thing but I got about 30 mins of the event. It was a really cool event and it was really nice to hear the story of the GZA from the GZA.

Recently someone requested that I re-up my GZA/Genius Harvard Lecture, I really had trouble tracking this down via my own files but thankfully some friends specifically Claaa7 from Wu-Tang Corp/claaa7 blogspot came through with the assist as they saved my OG upload, salute! You can download the OG file and see the OG post HERE. You can listen to this episode on any podcast app, please subscribe, rate, comment.
