Vimby Video: Jake One Interview

VIMBY - Jake One

I think that this is like only the second or third Vimby Vid I've put up, but I def. need to start checkin their site more often because they do always have a bunch of ill shit floating around on it.....case in point this lil' interview with Jake One. Jake's debut album was just thee best compilation album of 08', hands down man.....also was one of the best compilation albums in a few years period. So naturally now a bunch of new jacks are flooding message boards and websites inquiring about him and what he's all about. Personally, I have known about Jake since the days of The Conmen mixes, J-Rocc's "Walkman Rotation" LP and Rasco's "Escape From Alcatraz" album and I was really happy that his debut was so ill and that people are finally giving him his just due as a producer. This vid will def. answer a few questions to those wondering about Jake's background though.

The interview is kinda brief but it does have some really cool footage of The Pharmacy (the studio hang out that Jake, Vitamin D, DJ Supreme and a few others call home) and parts around Seattle. Jake breaks down his views on the industry, how he constructs songs and his take on the taste's of certain artist's when it comes to his beats.
