What is Poetic Society?
Poetic Society is a group full of musicians that I want to hopefully turn into an entertainment company in the
future. It originally started during the second semester of my junior year of high school when my homies
Mike C, Captain SaveEmAll, and Abstrac came to me about being a collective group of individual
MC’s that work together. Our chemistry in the studio had been so crazy that I wanted to do nothing
but that. It started off with just me, Mike C, Captain, and Abstrac, shortly after we added 2 more
artist to the group, who are, Black Paint and Flying Bird.
You also call yourself and your group, the “New Outkast”,
how has OutKast influenced you?
Outkast has influenced me greatly. As a child during the times
of moving back and forth to and from South Carolina, my mom
would listen to the Love Below side of their last album. That got
me hooked to different styles and sounds of music. The first
song I remember hearing by them was Elevators, it was the first
song by them where I knew every word because I had seen my
mom rap the whole song, so I had to learn it. Favorite quote by
them was by Andre 3000 on “Babylon” when he says “...and why
y’all hollerin’ wavin’ yall gats, n*gga they made them gats, they got
some sh*t that’ll blow out our backs from where they stay.”
With a song like “Stanky wash”, I can only imagine what you
have planned for your next project “L to the O”, what are some
things we can expect?
I wouldn’t say to expect anything. I can say this tape wont be like my last
complete tape (BLACK BEiNG). This tape is gonna relate to my generation in
the way they want to hear it, but not with the words they wanna hear.
What is a quote/phrase you go by:
In the words of the great Dave Chappelle
“Stop thinkin’ and start
makin’ moves!”
