FUNKINEVEN 1956 - THE ACID TAPE



Check this VCR footage of my homeboy FunkinEven 1956 discussing his origins in Hip-Hop & the Barbershop out in West London. It was shot by fly girl Grace Ladoja for Acyde's TMI. The dope title card contains a photo by Vent Fury.

The ish comes across like an old school music documentary that you'd watch in school, on acid with a futuristic house soundtrack. Funkineven has put out music on Eglo Records, collaborating with artists such as Fatima, a funky soulful vocalist.

Quotables

"I dress, eat, shit, hi top, fades, lines everything hip hop."

"The future is the past, the past is the future, every thing's been done already."

"Technology all that, this is ancient stuff."
