Hi, this is your Host, Primate King, welcoming you to the 8th Episode of our try to be but not so weekly rotating jam session . . . Accidental Practice!This episode has been a long time coming and believe you me, we didn’t pull any punches when it comes to bringing you the finest independent musicians our beloved Smokeland California has to offer. Actually, we’re bringing together artists from all corners of the globe. Yeah, we had to step it up a little bit…it helped get you tuned in though, didn’t it?
We’ll hear from Smokeland California’s very own resident guitarist Dennis Wong who will actually be playing keys for a short while in this episode…also, we will hear some recent guerrilla-styled performances from Nice Guys Finish Last and Fill (that’s F – I – L – L) from Southern California that took place at our good friend Rose’s 24th birthday party. Another treat we have to offer on this episode of the Accidental Practice Podcast is a collaboration between Swiss producer Patrick Kiener aka One Man Krass and NYC rapper/producer Sir Darkseid aka Johnny Freaking Awesome. We also have a brand new remix of a song by Milwaukee, Wisconsin’s very own Living Dred. If that doesn’t quench your thirst, perhaps a couple exclusive prim8king remixes + mashups will dump the proverbial cooler of Gatorade over your head while you’re not looking…either way you crack it – it’s going down!
Now we bring you . . . Accidental Practice!
Born in Trinidad and Tobago. . .The name's Jonathan Quamina a.k.a Johnny 5.1 a.k.a Johnny Freaking Awesome a.k.a Sir Dark$eid. I reside in BROOKLYN N.Y! I was raised in Harlem, Brooklyn and Oakland. Sound complicated? It's not! I'm an east coast kid at heart. Music, among a list of other things, is one of my deepest passions. Hip Hop is my religion and it's how I get my mind right and force the negative energy out of my spirit. Some of my role models in Hip Hop right now are MF DOOM, Mad Lib, Jedi Mind Tricks, Apathy, Aesop Rock, Eminem, Ludacris, and Busta Ryhmes. . .just to name a few. Danger Doom is probably my biggest idol combos. When they came out with the Mouse and the Mask album it was just mad stoopid. Every song on that album is pure gold. Like I tend not to rap about guns, drugs, and cars. I mean I've lived the street life but your not gonna hear me glorifying killing nigga's on the block. People listen to your stuff, especially the youth and one should really wanna set a good example and send a decent if not good message. Now not to say my lyrics are on that Will Smith level, but I hope you'll notice that when I rhyme I rhyme about silly stuff but keep in real. The fact is I rap for the people plain and simple. I Like to have fun with rap. People like Busta, Kanye, Common, Mos Def. . .these are guys who are having fun with rap. It don't always have to be about killing and drugs. I love music and I would be lost and dead without it. Hands down, palms up!
