The Plug (0:21).
The Interview (2:32).
As a listener of hip-hop, the best rappers always have a way of drawing you in. This can be achieved through aesthetics, found in a cool flow or voice. It can also be achieved through the content of what someone is saying, found in slick wordplay, or interesting subject matter.
Today’s guest, YUNGMORPHEUS, is a rapper who grabs my attention in both of the aforementioned ways. His voice is smooth, and his delivery is calm and even-keel, in a way that makes him unmistakably unique. On top of that, he really raps about stuff that matters, boasting fierce conviction, worldly perspective, and clever lyrical ability to boot.
MORPH has quickly turned into one of my absolute favourite rappers in the game. He has recently hit a new level of prolific excellence, with a slew of fantastic releases, collaborating with the likes of Eyedress, ThERAVADA, ewonee, and more.
Now, he has his latest upcoming album set to drop on April 28th, From Whence It Came, and I can promise you... this is one of his absolute best pieces of work yet, that continues the upward trajectory of quality we’ve been blessed with in recent years.
So I’m very pleased to welcome YUNGMORPHEUS on the show to discuss his distinct approach to rapping, his fiery brand of political commentary, and the makings of this upcoming album.
Along with some fun talk on white rap listeners and crackers... you won't wanna miss this!!
