"Ground Up" Interview for ABC 2 News
I interviewed Ground Up, a rap group based out of Philadelphia.
They perform at a lot of different places here on the east coast.
They're made up of Malcolm (Malakai), Alex (Azar), and Bijan (Bij Lincs).
Bij Lincs is their producer and I found out about his background in music and how he creates it now.
Malcolm and Alex were great also. I learned about how they work off of each other to keep their rapping on the same page.
Be on the lookout for them.
