Check out our exclusive interview with producer Brutal Caesar.
I2G is here with Brutal Caesar, how’s it going?
It’s going well man, thanks for the taking the time today!
Tell me a little bit about how you got your start in music and who are some of your musical influences out there coming up.
Oh man, I started years ago, just messing around with the idea of making music but not pushing it – started pushing it maybe 2017, with the ‘Sea Monster’ release with Tha Soloist. Influence wise, as a producer – gotta be Apollo Brown, 9th Wonder, Jake One, Marco Polo, Stoupe but then as a whole… Wu Tang, Non Phixion, Jedi Mind Tricks, Little Brother
You just recently dropped your new single featuring Reks entitled Dominate. Very dope single Tell me a little bit about how the single came together for you.
So Reks had been on the Caes Kalpurnia project with the ‘I Hope’ joint. I like to keep some familiar faces on projects whilst not solely relying on returning emcees. I had the beat for Dominate and asked if he’d be interested.. Thankfully he said yes!
Do you have any other Mixtapes or albums set to drop?
So, the project that this single comes from, ‘XII’ drops in March. Then I’m looking at another producer project featuring emcees from this side of the pond – which I’m hoping to drop in September. Some other bits bouncing about, but not where there are dates planned
Do you have any more upcoming videos or singles from the album?
No. This will be the only single. The video will drop on 7th Feb on my YouTube
What are your current thoughts on the music industry?
Aha. It’s way too commercial nowadays, but I like to try and keep up to date with Underground Hip Hop – Tone Spliff keeps killing it as do many more.
What is currently playing on your playlist musically?
At the minute, I’ve been listening to a variety. Ill Bill, Wu Tang but then also Tuxedo
Do you have any shows or tour dates?
No, none planned either.
What is your website information?
For music etc – brutalcaesar.bandcamp.com
Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/brutalcaesarmusic/
Appreciate the interview, any last words or shout outs?
I want to say thanks to all the artists involved with XII and everyone who listens to it. I wanna single out Elijah [J. Hexx Project] who has put the finishing touches to this project, but also Tone Spliff who has single handedly taken care of all the cuts.
Also, thank you again for taking the time to speak with me!
