“Why you acting like that” inspired by my real life experiences of females who lead you on but they are touch and go, wether it be they have a man who they don’t want, and may take a liking to you, then don’t know what to do (can’t tell the real from the fake) or females who’ve shown interest based on my position on life... when you look like you’re doing good they keep contact or when they think you’re stagnant they take a step back but they hit you every time you’re situation is looking prosperus.
All you can ask is “why you acting like that”
This is an interview I've been looking forward to for a while. It was originally scheduled for last month, but the logistics of conducting an interview with someone travelling through Africa, even with the ease and convenience of the internet is difficult coordinating time zones, the 6-7 hour time difference with scheduling and getting on the same page.... but alas, it finally happened...
In part 1 of our multi segment feature with Gibrilville we discuss his travels, the "Year of the Return" and the energy that comes from experiencing blackness in every capacity.

About #TheWire Interview Features on unsignedhype.org/About 2 Blow Radio Promo that empowers indie artists by using the tools we have at our disposal to increase awareness of who they are and expose their music from the hip hop mecca to the motherland. Taking it back to when hip hop was grimey, straight from the sewer before it became commercialized and polished.
It's musicality alone, curated by Brooklyn emcee, Gibrilville, is astoundingly cinematic; characterized by massive jazz progressions, strong, soulful choirs, and fragments of neighboring genres.

Frisky's music is a unique blend of rock n roll, hip hop, and comedy. Frisky grew up on hip hop, but what inspired him to pick up the guitar was rock n roll. However, he never performed music because all through out college and law school he performed stand up comedy. It was not until Frisky entered the corporate world as an attorney that he found his voice in music. Frisky quit his job and decided to pursue music full-time and he has not looked back since. His first Lp "The Frisky Experience" comes out everywhere 9/29/2018.

Motivation is everything. This song calls out all the people who get into music for the wrong reasons like to get rich or to have a sea of bitches. Frisky's motivation comes from the love of music and the show, and that's why he's better.
