Bleubird: The real good shit comes from the struggle

"Lauderdale" od Bleubirda je jedna z nejvíc SVOBODNEJCH desek letošního roku. Je to učebnicový "fuck you" album, ale zároveň je tam cejtit upřímnost a syrovost. Bleubird je ve světě "alternativního rapu" (blablabla) těžko zařaditelnej - není to profesionální depkař jako Sadistik, není to profesionální politik jako Sole, není to ani profesionální intelektuál jako Aesop Rock. Kdyby byl Bleubird kapela, byl by nejspíš jako Cows. I proto bude vždycky na okraji - kde to je nakonec vždycky nejzábavnější. A jedna osobní vsuvka - spolupracovat na turné s lidma jako Bleubird je čistá krása. Do všeho po hlavě, nula zábran, punk (tak, jak ho vnímám já; nikomu to necpu!), nějak to dopadne, Earth - Atomizer - Let's Go! Není důvod dělat s Bleubirdem normální interview, tohle je pár výkřiků - nechal jsem to v angličtině.

LAUDERDALE is your best album so far, because....?
...because I am the best me that I have ever been!!! ...so far. Who knows what kind of "me" I'll be a year from now. When I made my last album I was too comfortable... it's easy to make art when you're comfortable. The real good shit comes from the struggle... from the fire. I have no idea how much longer I'll be able to keep this up, the intertwined mess of my passion/career is forever fleeting. Which makes it beautiful like LIFE! So this album is very IN the moment. Maybe I'm caught up and lost in the sticky swamp lands of Florida and the lifestyle that comes along with it?? Or maybe this is just another adventure... either way ALL WILL BE REPRESENTED HONESTLY.

In all fairness - do you expect people to "get it"? It seems to me SO FAR AWAY from the world of "alternative rap"... am I wrong?
The dividing lines between "alternative" and "mainstream" have been crumbling for years. Styles and tastes shift and rotate like the planet and the stars. I'm fascinated with things I once considered ignorant and the things I loved now make my skin crawl. I never expect people to get it. All I can hope is that they are open to take it in and experience it. HOW it makes them feel is not my concern. No matter the sound my heart is still there.

You started rapping because...
...it was the ONLY thing that ever made sense to me.
