Guilty Simpson Interviews and Reviews
Grab a copy of Escalation.
The returns on Guilty Simpson’s Escalation have been terrific, between a few interviews and reviews and we wanted to start recapping them here.
On release day Guilty Simpson, alongside Producer Uncommon Nasa were interviewed for Grown Up Rap by Matt Horowitz. They got into the production style of the album, who would be best to remix it, their working relationship and more.
In one of their most comprehensive interviews, Guilty and Nasa sat down with the Rap Music Plug Podcast and chopped it up for over 90 minutes, both speaking on their origins and entries into Hip-Hop all the way up to their joint release of Escalation on Uncommon Records.
French hip-hop outlet Hip-Hop Breath has interviewed Guilty and put him on the cover of their print magazine Breath Magazine.
Guilty joined the Leedz Edutainment Podcast, based out of Boston, to discuss his career and his new album. You can view that on their Youtube Channel.
In addition to these from Guilty, Uncommon Nasa joined the Chairman of the Board Podcast to talk mostly about the production of Escalation.
