Interview: Special Sundays x Red Pill & Hir O



Fresh. Fresh. Fresh interview. Check it.
After their performance at the “Show And Prove Showcase” in Brooklyn, as well as they day they dropped their project “A Dream Within A Dream”, Miss Special got to talk to Red Pill and Hir-O. They spoke about how they came together and how they worked together, with Red Pill attributing it to Hir-O being “the next big producer out of Detroit”.

They also spoke about the title being “very very very loosely based on the movie ‘Inception’” and the project stemming from being pissed off at the Michigan hip-hop scene’s veterans and newcomers. They talked about Red Pill’s inspirational lyricism that he considers “emo rap” and the vision behind Hir-O’s “honest” beats, as well as some of the samples used. They also touched on the features on the project, mentors such as Othello, Invincible, 14KT, and upcoming visuals. “Dream Within A Dream” is just the prelude to their full debut “The Kick” coming soon.
Special Sundays Radio Show is live every Sunday from 2-4pm PST on www.SpecialSundays.com

Jinesis "Each Day, We Shine" feat. Lex Sandler


"The beat is a representation of an individual catching a moment of shine during a specific time of day. It could be any day of the week. When that moment is upon you, take advantage by being free and expressing yourself to the world." -Jinesis

Jinesis gave me a sneak peek of his new project a week ago. Impressive. Each Day, We Shine featuring Lex Sandler is one of the standout instrumentals from his The Sun Shines Through EP. It's just something about the vibe that Jin puts together that I can't help but enjoy. I'm sure you'll feel the same way. Hit play and enjoy the music. Chea!
