Featured artist: Mr. Ripley - The talented 1
Below is a short interview with the upcoming underground artist Mr. Ripley.
How did you decide to become an artist?
Mr. Ripley: When I heard check out my melody by Rakim. I wrote down all the words to the song and then rewrote it using my own words. Then my mama brought me 2 turn tables and a few 12 inches with instrumentals on the b side and I've been a beast ever since.
U want to be a rapper make sure u rap clear enuff so the people can understand u. This was told to me by my mom
What about concerts? Do you play live?
Yes at least once a month.
Best punchline you ever wrote?

I have 3 albums done and ready to hit the streets. My solo album is called Complicated Musick. Then my brother and I have a group called stone and robert and that album is called 7th day. Then me and a boom bap producer from Greece named krus have a album done to called #theanarchyproject. I have numerois mixed tapes i released on line through out the years.
