ARTIST OF THE WEEK : We Focus On CENTRAL PARK!  (Interview)


OKEY!!! SO THESE KATS GO BY THE NAME CENTRAL PARK..THEY ARE A HIP HOP GROUP BASED IN RUSSIA WITH A SOUND THAT IS SURE TO STICK IN YOUR HEADPHONES.YOU PROBABLY DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT THEM BUT THAT'S WHAT #WORDOUTHIPHOP IS HERE FOR,TO SHOW YOU WHAT YALL HAVE BEEN REALLY MISSING..THE MUSIC IS ONE THING BUT THE PASSION AND DRIVE IS ANOTHER..WE HAD A CHANCE TO GET IN TOUCH WITH THEM N THIS IS WHAT THEY HAD TO SAY...


1. Who are Central Park?
    We are a rap/hiphop group based in Rostov-on-Don, Southern Russia. But it aint just about the music though,we fam too and we always kicking it together.

2. Why the name?
    For some odd reason everybody keeps asking that.Well the name 'Central Park' is actually the name of the place where we linked up. We'd been debating what to call the group for a minute when one of us suggested it,it sounded like a cool name for a rap group and everybody was down with it.So yeah we actually named the group after the park where we linked up

3. Who is in the group?
    Jolnz, The Foe and Young Brilli.

4. How do you describe your music?
   We don't have a specific sound as at now,but most of what we've done up to this point has that old school/soul feel kinda,we still in the experimental stage I guess.And the content is inspirational,its inspired.And we strive to do what most strict hip hop heads would label as 'real hip hop'.

5. Russia hasn't been known 4 hip hop,what made u want to change that?
   Russia might not be known for hip hop and we might probably be the first cats you hearing of from out here but that don't mean we changing anything.Hip hop has been here for close to two decades now,we just carrying on tradition.

6. What are you working on at the moment? Any names we might know of?
   Well we currently cooking up an LP,we about five cuts deep into that but we not too sure on when we going to drop it.Its shaping up well,we working with different producers(mostly Russian though).And there isn't up to this point anybody we want to work with specifically,most of the artists we've collaborated with so far are all still up and coming so I doubt you might have heard of anybody.

7. When can we expect a mixtape/album?
   Well like I said,there is still no specific dates but y'all can expect a project from C.P. mid 2013

8. Your top 5 global hip hop artist?
    In no specific order Nas, Rakim, Mos Def, Evidence(from Dilated Peoples) and The Roots.

9. Top 5 Russian hip hop artists?
      L'One(from Marselle), I Diggidy, Basta, Rekket and Kasta. Random order as well.

10. ur top 5 zambian hip hop artists?
     Well Mr.Swagger and The Holstar are legendary.Krytic is nice and Chef 187 is a dope as well.And I know these are like only four names but these are all I could think of.


Last words:

"Big shout out to everybody who been showing us love and y'all should wait on that LP."
