Author: Extraordinary Rap June 30, 2021 Duration: 2:05:51

As a founding member of anticon, frontman of Themselves, Subtle, 13&God, etc., and too many other projects to list, Doseone has secured his legacy as one of hip hop's most unique and accomplished multidisciplinary artists. We drill into his stony veneer as he shares not only his artistic but his emotional drives, revealing his relationship with death, aggression, and therapy. doseone.bandcamp.com

Our bonus episode features an additional 15 minutes with Doseone, as he describes his outlook on politics, classism and Saafir. Additionally Andrew Mbaruk shares his impressions of Doseone's G Is For Deep album. It's available, along with all our past bonus content, for $3 at patreon.com/weirdrap.

Eb&Flow presents part one of his Rap Grifters series, investigating the growing phenomenon of white supremacists and other nefarious infiltrators of hip hop culture who covertly work towards dangerous political aims under the guise of artistry.

And we proudly debut Kool Keith's Weird Rap Horoscope series!

Finally, we speak with MC/poet Andrew Mbaruk about his mental state, his artistic intent, his drug use, and his album, Papier-Mâché Chalet.
