This was definitely one of the most fun interviews I have ever done.  It was also the only interview that I’ve ever gone to where the rappers just wanted to…rap.  So we burned a couple down, and I let the camera roll as Stress went the f*ck in at Folk’s Williamsburg apartment.  There was also some very interesting dialogue.  Namely that Folk & Stress were discovered by recently convicted former NBA star Jayson Williams.  They recant being whisked away to Aspen and studio sessions at Jay-Z’s spot.   How “scenesters” are ruining hip-hop and their influences consisting of Charles Manson, Kurt Vonnegut & Glen Beck were also touched on.  F&S also declare that they are “your favorite rapper’s, least favorite rapper”, and how their life is not “a movie”.  if you are unfamiliar with Folk & Stress get familiar with their music here.  Als if you are in NYC check the flyer below the videos for their show at Santos with DJ Babu, Fashawn & Cory Gunz.
