they’re an interviewer. being an underground rap aficionado isn’t in the requirements for an interviewer to score an interviewer with a legendary rapper.
i mean yeah that's obvious, if you pretty famous and ur getting interviewed they gon ask u about artists like eminem, tupac and biggie (no disrespect) they wont ask u about sgp or mach hommy. a lot of rappers be cappin about their top 5 and include tupac, biggie... cuz if they dont the casuals gon be like " wtf man does he even know anything about hiphop"
@@dysperdotted don think its a big deal but yeah regardeless he didnt had to be sugesting names undergound or not, like ma man was gona go like naahh that one i dont fuck with much?

I mean from a lot of the other answers he's clearly looking deep but jpeg's not exactly a good example to use to say hes looking deep haha. Jpeg is very popular now
honestly and im being honest... i felt like he was a wannabe mos def. and didnt really like this album. i prob gotta let it grow on me but probably not. black on both sides i could actually envision what mos is saying in each song, while i couldnt really feel mach hommy like that in this album.
Mach Hommy music is so obscure and pure its like u kinda wanna keep it to yaself cus its so not tapped into ...when he was on Grieselda tracks it was a beautiful time...they made powerful music even tho they dont need each other but they were incredible together...i dont understand why Benny was coming at him like that...but shit happens....adventurely the world will notice Mach i hope..!!
facts! what is he doing though? i been following him for a while and was certain he was about to blow up at any second, and then...nothing...it's like he's still in hiding. i don't want him to miss his shot. he has to have people beating his door down trying to get with him. hopefully he knows what he's doing and he's waiting for all the stars to align and he's gonna come out with some shit nobody could even comprehend.
@@crime_wavez mach just been in waiting is all. he had a photo with Jay Z and Dre was bumping him in the studio at one point in time so he definitely has something in store

And this dumbass interviewer brings up Kendrick like such a generic rapper to bring up when asking mos def who he is listening to right now
To me it's three people who each carry a third of DOOM's legacy: Earl Sweatshirt, billy woods and Open Mike Eagle. Shoutout to Yasiin Bey on the Navy Blue record.

@@inmyownworldfr great album for sure, saw people praising it and was very happy to see that, also no one was comparing it to BtH just appreciating good music. What else was in your top 5?

what was the pianists name?
I think it might have been Ethiopian pianist Emahoy Maryam

Black On Both Sides was my first real Hip-Hop album and that shit changed my life 💯
Love that he just name dropped no one of the more commercial artists. Mach-Hommy and blu is the shit!
Mach Hommy is something you can describe as MF DOOM, rarely seen and the music speaks for itself.
RIP DOOM
you cant describe anyone as DOOM except for Daniel Dumile
@nickyg_37 or King geehdora, and victor Vaughn
Nigga thought he was about to shoutout J Cole, Kendrick and whomever is the flavor of the week at the time of the interview. Real recognize real.

"We just want to hear you say it for a possible click bait title."
