I know I say this roughly every other interview, but the unexpurgated transcript of my conversation with Quik and Kurupt ranks among my all-time favorites, with the pair waxing eloquent about everything from Quik is the Name, to Dilla and Pac, to the virtues of Italian beer. Expect it Monday or sooner.
In the interim, my piece on the BlaQKout duo is up at Pop and Hiss in advance of their show tomorrow night at the House of Blues–Sunset. Avoiding the Strip on weekends is one of the secrets to navigating Los Angeles with a modicum of sanity intact. These are two of the only people for whom I’m willing to make an exception. Well, them and Pauly Shore.
