BANG! @southernvangard #radio presents the PJ KATZ interview session! As you all very well know, upstate NY basically has the whole rap game in a choke hold at the moment - and no, we’re not talking about that silly rabbit type sh*t ya’ll - we talking about REAL RAP. So it’s no mistake we’re back there this week for an insightful chat with Albany-based producer, composer & writer, PJ Katz. This gentleman has a lot to be happy about in 2020, as he was the man behind the boards alongside J57 for a majority of the standout joints the brand new JAMO GANG album, “Walking With Lions”. If that ain’t enough he launched MORDELLA MUSIC LIBRARY at the top of this year, which provides authentic samples and compositions for the producer community. We got PJ on the horn as well as the homie J57 to talk about the making of the new Jamo Gang LP, why they owe EL GANT & DEEJAY ELEMENT everything for connecting the two of them and what it means to PJ to be a part of an album that includes the likes of RAS KASS, DJ PREMIER, SLUG of ATMOSPHERE, SID WILSON from SLIPKNOT, SICK JACKEN of PSYCHO REALM & SLAINE from LA COKA NOSTRA. We also get into some history goodness as PJ breaks down how his father’s penchant for jazz influenced him growing up, making pause tapes after he caught the hip-hop bug and how both of those things led him down the road of getting into production. For those that are interested in publishing, the business of original samples, compositions and the like - there are a ton of jewels inside - but you gotta press play to get ‘em. So hurry up little buddy, it’s on you - press play, lock in and listen up ‘cause you know it’s ALWAYS that #SmithsonianGrade #TwiceAWeek #WeAreTheGard // southernvangard.com // @southernvangard on #applepodcasts #stitcherradio #soundcloud #mixcloud #youtube // #hiphop #rap #undergroundhiphop #boombap #DJ #mix #interview #podcast #ATL #WORLDWIDE #RIPCOMBATJACK Recorded live May 11, 2020 @ Dirty Blanket Studios, Marietta, GA southernvangard.com @southernvangard on #applepodcasts #soundcloud #youtube #spotifypodcast #googlepodcasts #stitcherradio #mixcloud #SmithsonianGrade #TwiceAWeek #WeAreTheGard twitter/IG: @southernvangard @jondoeatl @cappuccinomeeks
