three7: So much talent in the PDX

It’s a great time to be a fan of hip hop in the northwest with lots of great releases and shows coming your way. Things have been pretty busy on Welcome to the Neighborhood too with announcements and in studio guests. You can catch up on past episodes by subscribing to the podcast via the website KZME or on iTunes.

In April, Destro of Oldominion hung out to talk about his latest release Ill.Ustrated on Vinyl Fluid Records and the album release that featured Vursatyl of the Lifesavas, Sleep of Oldominion, L Pro and more. He also premiered the video for the first single Back On The Flow – good stuff for sure.

Tony Ozier of the Doo Doo Funk All-Stars stopped by the following week as we played material from many of the projects he’s worked on including features with Living Proof, Soul P, The Manimalhouse, solo projects Mental Candy and Aural Penetration and of course the DDF All-Stars Keep The Funk Alive. We also talked about the Mix and Mash event featuring Commotion and DDF on stage together at the Someday Lounge – it was a good show for sure. Tony talked about gearing up for the school year as he’ll be working with R.E.A.L. Prep Charter Acadamy R.E.A.L. Prep and making a difference in the lives of the youth in our community. Be on the look out for more from Tony in the coming months and keep up with all thinks Dookay at the official website www.doodoofunk.com

Sapient of Sandpeople stopped by and talked about the many projects he’s working on including his latest release Barrels For Feathers. You can keep up with all things Sapient at the official website www.sapientkills.com Aside from recording, Sape had to keep an eye on his phone as he was awaiting the call that his new baby may be on the way (congrats bro). There are a couple of new videos he’s working along with a new rock album. Here the whole interview including an in studio performance on the Welcome to the Neighborhood podcast.

Still coming over the next few weeks, in studio guests including Kenny Fresh of Fresh Selects, Nitro Norm, Animal Farm and Theory Hazit. So be sure to tune in every Tuesday from 9-11pm pacific.

Alright y’all, until next time, be blessed.
