Hip Rock Magazine Interviews The Asoka!

Interviews

Asoka-Relive-Hip-Hop

I’m proud to introduce to you this amazing artist out of LA. Asoka had a dream from the get-go. Utilizing the Law of Attraction he has made his way from a chubby high school kid that loved to rap to being celebrated as a powerful recording artist having videos in rotation internationally on VH1 and MTV. He has had the fortunate ability to go around the world to meet artists he has idolized, learning many lessons along the way and has been grateful daily for it.

I love his sound truly. He has a great voice, great lyrics and the beats he makes with his Swedish producer, RawKey, are pretty sweet too. But what I love most about Asoka is his ethic and common sense. Early on he learned that educating himself on how to fine-tune his craft, how to approach the media and how to polish everything about the business world has paid off. One story in particular is pretty impressive. [CLICK HERE for entire article]

Redefining The Game – My Interview with MC Jin!

Interviews

Once in a while someone extraordinary comes and changes the game, the landscape of how we perceive things. Some call it destiny; some might argue that it’s the work ethic and drive. Maybe the two are intertwined…

Jin’s story is one of a kind. Inspirational. No ones ever done it quite like him. He’s arguably one of the most successful MCs of Asian descent. He came into the limelight on BET’s 106 & Park ten years ago and he’s been paving his own path ever since.
