Episode 94 (Illingsworth Interview)
In this Episode 94 of Out Da Box Talks, Host Cril talks in depth with Detroit Emcee, Producer "Illingsworth" about his inspiration for pursuing music, his thoughtful but humorously clever lyrical approach, his drive for making beats and more. We talk about some of his music selections from his vast beat tape catalog but delve even deeper into his lyrical catalog which features some extremely clever and thoughtful rhymes. We talk about his latest single "Around" which finds him singing over some dreamy electro soul production, his recent Emcee Project "I Didn't Think This Through (2017 Demos)" released in May of 2020, his "OLD MAN RAPS" EP released in 2019, his "You're No Fun" single released in 2018 along with the Album, his 2016 Album "I Didn't Ask For This", his "Giant Slide" EP in 2014 and even his hilarious "Dreams In San Franscico" scat jazz track released years ago on bandcamp. I had a lot of fun doing this interview. Illingsworth is one of the most skilled and unique Emcees I have heard in recent years. I feel like he doesn't get as much recognition as he deserves. His humorous but clever and thoughtful wordplay as a lyricist is something I feel is extremely special to hip hop. His production embodies the soulful sound that Detroit Music is known for. It was indeed a pleasure chatting with this good brother. I certainly hope you enjoy. Also there is a bonus exclusive interview I have with Illingsworth which is available on our Out Da Box Media Patreon Page, I assure yout it's a really fun and dope listen. If you like this main interview, I think you'll really enjoy the bonus interview as well. You can become a patreon by subscribing at the link below.

Episode 66 (The "Moses Herman Jacobs" Album Interview)
In this Episode of Out Da Box Talks, host Cril talks with Seasoned NYC Emcees "Sir Tumes, Mikal Amin, Long Division, San Francisco Producer, DJ Prof. Brian Oblivion and Dupo Studio Designer Jacques Dupoux” about their new Concept and Character based Album entitled "Moses Herman Jacobs". The album generally has an amazing upbeat and funky production backdrop but the lyrics are clever and dense as each emcee shines lyrically to tell different stories about their character. The Moses Herman Jacobs Album is loosely inspired by topics like economic inequality, gentrification and confronting the idea of Home: what we've created for ourselves and what has been shaped by the socio-political forces beyond our control. However each Emcee's Character takes the listener further into their unique world and experiences beyond said topics. Take a listen to this in-depth interview which really taps into how the project came to be as well as each Emcee and the Producer's unique contribution to the project. View on our Youtube Channel, Out Da Box TV or via our High Quality Audio Podcast on Anchor.fm, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Sticher, Overcast etc. Also I highly encouraged you to check out The Moses Herman Jacobs Album now available on bandcamp on other Digital and Streaming Services, I believe you will enjoy the interview a whole lot more after taking a listen.

In this Episode 62 of Out Da Box Talks, Host Cril talks with N.C. native, Philly based Producer/Emcee "Big Stacks" and Milwaukee Emcee "Nite Tyme" about their brand New Album "The Vibe Out". We talk about everything from how the group first met and what inspired them to do this project. We also talk about the sound of the album resembling an organic boom bap hip hop vibe and how Big Stacks was able to put together the production for the album. Nite Tyme also gives meaning to certain lyrics and themes on the album, ranging from one of the 1st tracks "Gina" to other songs like "Make It Happen" which shares a general message about overcoming challenges to achieve goals, as well as records like "Heavy On My Mind" which speaks on the challenges we as a community has faced thus far with regards to the pandemic as well Black peoples struggle to overcome oppression and racial injustice through out the years.

The interview is quite an insightful one, and I certainly hope those listening will be inspired. Big Stacks and Nite Tyme's New Album "The Vibe Out" is exactly that, an organic Boom Bap Hip Hop vibe that reflects on a wide array of topics that are everyday people relatable. It's in no way preachy but certainly mature in sound and lyrical approach. If you are a fan of 90's Boom Bap Hip Hop I think this project would be at least appreciated.
