Uncle Murda Interview from Street Logik on Vimeo.
We caught up with Mr. East New York himself, Uncle Murda in midtown during a studio session where we discussed his upcoming project, Warning, working with Mariah Carey, his stage name, his relationship with Jay-Z, and a lot more.
What seems to be the most accepted and welcomed counterpart to Hip-Hop is the beloved genre of R&B. Over the years, this union often created the ultimate blend of edge and soul showing that Hip-Hop could evolve and expand while reaching new depths and a broader range of listeners.
Songs like Method Man and Mary J. Blige’s famed “You’re All I Need”, Nas and Lauryn Hill’s “If I Ruled The World”, and The Roots and Erykah Badu’s ‘You Got Me” are all prime examples of how the art of this particular collaboration could help shape an important sound and staple in Hip-Hop. However, some hook-ups come along every now and then to make you wonder why the hell they ever happened in the first place. It has to be a motive behind it, it just has to. Right? Of course, walk with me.
