The Plug (0:21).
The Interview (1:31).
Within about 10 seconds of hearing Fly Anakin for the first time, I knew this guy was born to rap. Immediately, his raspy voice caught my attention, sounding like he had a built-in plug-in in his vocal chords… making his dazzling bars sound so special.
In this episode, Richmond-born Frank, otherwise known as rapper-producer Fly Anakin joins the show.
