Sean and Brandon discuss, in detail, Heems’ Nehru Jackets. Specific subjects covered include bad fans not mattering, similarities to Graduation Day and MLK, what Dap’s album may sound like and what could be simultaneously the least and most interesting verse on an album. Our chat is like a shark’s fin: deepish, truish.
I was on Sean’s podcast again! This could become semi-frequent. We talked about Heems’ amazing mixtape Nehru Jackets. I connect it to Nietzsche, Kanye West, Common, and Martin Luther King, because I am ridiculous.
Along with Julianne Shepherd and Das Racist themselves, Sean and Brandon are some of the music writiers most capable of having an informed, enlightening and entertaining discussion about Das Racist. Some get the not-a-joke/there-were-never-not-jokes encyclopedic knowledge of/grew up with rap thing, some get the race/politics thing, but this has thus far hit the most bases outside of DR’s own interviews.
