Planet Asia should need no introduction…but he certainly deserves one. With 2018 marking the twenty year anniversary of his self-titled debut EP, it’s the perfect time to look back on his body of work and appreciate just how integral he has been in keeping hardcore Hip-Hop alive through the trap years. King Medallions and his Gold Chain Military have managed to carry on tradition, while moving the culture forward at the same time. That’s no easy task!

PA’s 2017 collab with Apollo Brown, Anchovies, is considered a classic by heads worldwide, but only his stalwart supporters know that he dropped a mixtape on his born day last year titled Dirty Planet with DirtyDiggs and it was just as banging. In 2018 the Fresno emcee has already graced ears with two more high grade projects, The Golden Buddha and Mansa Musa. However, the GCM general is never one to rest on his laurels and has more in store before the year is out, including a second helping from the Mansa Musa sessions titled The Lost and Found Treasures of Mansa Musa! We got a chance to politic with one of this generation’s greatest warrior poets, and below is what transpired.

Planet Asia應該不用多介紹了…但當然他得值得被介紹。2018年是他首張EP的二十週年紀念日,這是個回顧他的作品的最佳時機,並欣賞他這麼多年一直在Hip Hop方面不可或缺的努力。 King Medallions和他的Gold Chain Military成功地繼承了傳統,同時推動了文化的發展。 這不是一件容易的事!

2017年PA和Apollo Brown, Anchovies的合作被世界各地的人們認為是經典之作。但只有他最忠實的支持者才知道他去年生日時發放了一個名為Dirty Planet with DirtyDiggs的混音帶吧!2018年的時候,Fresno emcee已經有了兩個更高級的項目 – The Golden Buddha 和 Mansa Musa。然而GCM永遠對自已的成就不滿足,並且將會有更多的「儲貨」在年底推出,包括第二次幫助 Mansa Musa的he Lost and Found Treasures of Mansa Musa!我們有機會訪問這代最偉大的「戰土詩人」,下面是當日發生的事情:
