"PETE MARRIOTT - #REALHIPHOP (2014) | nu LP + interview"
hiyas. so i've sorta been Pete's go-to guy for interviews n whatnot over the years, n we recently did one about his new LP titled #REALHIPHOP. long story short, dude's made one of the finest hip hop albums of the year featuring a stellar line-up of emcees he grew up with n worked with since the early 90s, plus a few from the modern crop (including Random + OKP's own DVS Jackson Esq). now i was mostly absent for the Pete vs OKP wars back in the day so i don't have a stake in any of THAT shit at all, i'm just following the dope music. i'm aware he's prob got some lifelong enemies here but if u could leave all pre-conceptions at the door and give the album a listen, that would be swell
