I sit at our new LA location, The PentagonLA, waiting for Evidence. For this interview. Iām nervous. I start to think about all the years Iāve heard him deliver consistent, high quality work. Iām nervous. Dilated Peoples. The Weather Man Series. Countless features. God tier production. Iām nervous. Itās sunny outside. He walks in. Evidence is wearing a fur collared jacket and a florescent orange beanie. Iām not nervous anymore. Firm handshake. We get started. Evidence is a pro. From the beginning he was in control of the interview. You can almost see the talent radiating from Evidence so it gives me high hopes that āWeather Or Notā will be no less amazing than anything heās done. From The Wake Up Show days to future projects, we talk about it all. Evidence is dope. He signed my cd.
