Dirt Platoon - Southern Vangard Radio Interview Sessions
BANG! @southernvangard #radio presents the DIRT PLATOON interview session! RAF ALMIGHTY & SNOOK DA CROOK, two Baltimore MC’s that are also biological brothers, dropped a ringer at the top of 2020 in the form of “Get Ya Hands Dirty, - a neck snapping LP that features O.C. (DITC), RUSTE JUXX, GUILTY SIMPSON & the FEL SWEETENBERG, and boasts production from Fel, ABYSS DWELLA, DJ BRAN & NAPALM. We sat down with Raf to talk about the making of the album, why the looming Domino Sugar plant in Baltimore’s Inner Harbor was chosen as the image for the album cover and why it also provides a much deeper, underlying theme for the record. Of course we get into our history bag and talk about the creation of Dirt Platoon, how critical Nas’ “Illmatic” and O.C.’s “Word Life” LP were in terms of influence when they dropped and how that influence came full circle with the O.C. collaboration on the new album. We also dig in on the white-hot Baltimore underground, the strength in numbers approach they’ve rolled out with local, like-minded rhymesayers such as ILL CONSCIOUS, GUY GRAMS, JAMIL HONESTY and JAY ROYALE - and what we can expect from them and the extended crew in 2020. Oh yes, Vangardians, there’s much more where this came from - so stop that dilly dallying! Scoop up “Get Ya Hands Dirty” today and after you’ve done that push play on this fine, fine interview that is one-hundred percent #SmithsonianGrade #TwiceAWeek #WeAreTheGard // southernvangard.com // @southernvangard on #applepodcasts #stitcherradio #soundcloud #mixcloud #youtube // #hiphop #rap #undergroundhiphop #boombap #DJ #mix #interview #podcast #ATL #WORLDWIDE #RIPCOMBATJACK Recorded live February 3, 2020 @ Dirty Blanket Studios, Marietta, GA southernvangard.com @southernvangard on #applepodcasts #soundcloud #youtube #spotifypodcast #googlepodcasts #stitcherradio #mixcloud #SmithsonianGrade #TwiceAWeek #WeAreTheGard twitter/IG: @southernvangard @jondoeatl @cappuccinomeeks
