The Plug (0:21).
The Interview (1:48).
The ability to be authentically yourself is a superpower. It makes people feel more comfortable around you, and gravitate towards you because there is a certain solidness or realness about you that people can latch on to.
This is a concept that 100% applies to music, and in particular rap, which is a type of music that is heavily based on the listener caring about the artist’s personality and character - not just their technical skill.
Although it certainly is nice when both the skill and the authenticity are present, which is precisely the case with Portland rapper, Milc. Milc is one of the most talented and genuinely funny rappers out right now, who is making an increasingly large mark on the game.
His recent run is punctuated by a string of collaborative records with talented producers, such as Televangel and goldenbeets.
Milc joins the show today to talk about how he injects his personality into his music, his key influences, and the makings of his two most recent records from 2023, Horseradish and The Fish That Saved Portland.
The backstory behind is simple, but dope rap name (4:13).
Portland hip-hop scene (5:38).
Injecting personality in Milc’s music (10:28).
