it bad and what lesson did it
teach you.
Granddad Woolly: I’ve done
quite a few live shows. More
than I can count. I had took
a hiatus from performing for
about 2 years to focus on my
film work but I’m back at it
now and love every second
of it. The best performance I
think I’ve had was probably
one of my most recent shows.
It was my first show since my
hiatus and I got the chance to
perform all new material and
the crowd loved every second
of it. The energy and love I
got was amazing and was a
great way to get back into the
live performance game. My
worst performance was probably an open mic I did a few
years back. I live in Atlanta
so my style of music isn’t
always accepted with open
arms and I got sort of a mixed
crowd. So half the room was
feeling the music and the
other half wasn’t and they
made it known. But from that
I learned how to read a crowd,
see how they respond to certain types of music and know
what songs are good live and
which aren’t. It was a truly
humbling experience that I
learned a lot from.
Misfit Tunes: What’s next for
you?
Granddad Woolly: I’m currently working on new music.
A slew of new singles that I
will periodically release over
www.MisfitTunes.com
the next few months. After
that I’m aiming to drop my
next full length album hopefully around spring or summer
of next year.
Misfit Tunes: Where do you
see yourself this time next
year?
Granddad Woolly: I see myself doing what I’m doing
now on a more frequent and
larger scale. More shows,
more music, more fans, more
grinding. And if so happens
the right situation pres ents
itself to partner up with a
bigger entity then so be it. But
the focus is to keep putting
out great content and getting it
to the masses anyway I can.
Misfit Tunes: What is your
most recent project?
Granddad Woolly: My most
recent project is “The Vanilla
Tape”. It’s a free record and
sort of a blend between an
projects I’ve ever created. I
think that’s because it served
as a self-reflection record. Just
me on there and all the songs
have something to do with
me personally. It’s a timeless
project that I has the potential
the reach classic status in the
future.
Misfit Tunes: What accomplishments and /or awards
have you received?
Granddad Woolly: No awards,
yet. But I my 2009 MF
DOOM cover album “MF
Woolly-Chrome & Ivory” was
listed on several best of 2009
Hip Hop albums list as well as
cosigns from
producer
!llmind and Editor-In-Cheif of
KevinNottingham.com Justin
Ivey and I have a good feeling
that “The Vanilla Tape” will
be showing up on a few best
of 2014 lists this year as well.

album and mixtape. I don’t
call it either though. I see it as
a musical presentation piece.
It’s art. I released it this past
April and it’s received a ton of
positive response and praise.
It’s all produced by the very
talented UK producer Vanilla (hence the title) and it’s
literally one of my favorite
