Video: OkayplayerTV interview with People Under The Stairs

OkayplayerTV: People Under The Stairs from Okayplayer on Vimeo.

Here's a pretty informative vid....the good folks over at Okayplayer sit down (and stand up) with Thes One and Double K of the extremely dope and productive (they've released a new album every two years since 97') L.A. based group, People Under The Stairs. Whenever I talk about them with other writers or heads I love to tell people that one of the reasons I respect them is because they were one of the first hip-hop groups to ever acronymize (I think that's a word, lol) their name i.e. "PUTS", and use that frequently in press releases, flyers and internet forums. uhhh, yeah, so anyway.....this is a dope vid, I like seeing the humble abode of any producer I admire and Thes's is pretty cool lookin'....wish he woulda snatched a random record outta one of those stacks and spoke on it, or better yet flipped it. They talk to Double K in front of the L.A. Fat Beats (an equally dope location) and his portion of the interview is cool as well, goes into his whole ideology behind honest rhyming which I co-sign to the fullest. Thes breaks down how their first skeptical meeting went back in the day and how they made their most recent album "Fun DMC". Also included: footage from their first video ever, shot in Australia.
