Hej Dj Babu!

I hela elva år har Scratch försett Pusterviks besökare med hiphop i världsklass. När det nu är dags förfödelsedagskalasär det en självklarhet att slå på den största av trummor, och flyga in dj:s och rappare från självaste Amerikat. Dj Babu och Rakaa Iriscience, båda från Dilated Peoples, är två av de som gästar scenen, och vi bestämde oss för att ta ett snack med den förstnämnde.

Hi Dj Babu! How are you doing?

– I'm doing great, thank you!

You're playing here this weekend, how will you make the people of Gothenburg feel?

– I hope to make the people feel good, I'm going to try my best to bring the southern Cali vibes to Gothenburg.

I understand you're doing a set on your own, and then one with Rakaa. Which do you prefer?

– I like both, but being that Rakaa is an exceptional host it's always nice to rock with him. I'm not the best on the mic so it's nice when Rak is there to keep the crowd involved and help keep the crowd and us connected throughout the night.

What's your best tips for someone who wants to start djing?

– Do it because you love it and everything else will fall into place.

It's Scratch's 11 year anniversary you're playing at. What do you wanna give them for their birthday?

– I'd love to give them a fun, bodymovin, good time set.

Has anyone ever accidentally called you Dj Baby?

– No, but it happens in texts all the time. Damn autocorrect.

2013's almost over. What's the best thing that happened this year?

– Finishing the new Dilated LP.

And what's the absolute worst?

– Finishing the new Dilated LP.

Finally… What are your plans for the nearest future?

Spreading the word about our new Dilated LP Directors of Photography, finishing up and releasing my LP Duck Season 4, and a bunch of awesome stuff happening with the Beatjunkies that you'll be hearing about soon.
