KEXP
This week’s installment of the KEXP 10-part series “Hip-Hop: The New Seattle Sound” features local duo Fresh Espresso. The four elements of hiphop, graffiti, dancing, beats and rhymes have expanded to include a whole host of artistic outlets including fashion design, photography and multimedia. The duo Fresh Espresso, made up of Rik Rude and P Smoov, consider themselves to be part of a collective of artists working all kinds of creations. In this interview P Smoov talks about getting his start making beats, how he wrote one of his most popular songs while homeless and living in an abandoned building and also gives advice to artists who just starting out. You can listen to the documentary after the link and you can catch fresh Espresso at the Capitol Hill Block Party on July 25.
