Yo OG | S4 Episode 17
Description
My guest this week is rapper and one-fifth of the collective No Label, Yo OG. We spoke about Buddhism and spirituality, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, Belly, Dope, the ritual of going to the movies, juggling different projects, coming up listening to And1 mixtapes and Joey Bada$$, how he came to make music and help form No Label, and the creative process behind his projects Burgundy—produced entirely by Buddy—and this year’s This Too Shall Pass. Come fuck with us.
This Too Shall Pass is available now wherever music is sold, streamed, or stolen. Consider copping the album on Bandcamp, where it comes with a handful of exclusive bonus tracks. Follow OG on Instagram (@supreme47g) and keep up with No Label on IG and TikTok: @nolabelent
