South Korean Sensation Keith Ape Interviewed by Prince Paul
Keith Ape may be the guest who has travelled the farthest to be on the Scion AV All-Purpose Show. The South Korean rapper, along with his friend Ben on translation duty, sits in with hosts Prince Paul and DJ PForREAL to discuss his journey so far.
Ape details how he first got into rap music, but then explains that he likes to think of his style as regionally agnostic—influenced by different hip-hop scenes throughout the US. In doing so, he’s come up his own distinct approach, but that didn’t stop he from getting nervous and feeling like he needed to represent for his entire country when he played at SXSW this past year.
You may have already heard Ape’s hit “It G Ma” and it’s accompanying remix, but be sure to download his new song “Camo,” featuring Bryan Cha$e, the lead track on Shellfish or Better, the EP that Eddie Huang recently curated for Scion AV.
