MC HAMMERSMITH – ‘G.I. JOE’ + Exclusive Interview

1. Thank you very much for your time! Before we introduce your new release to our readers – what kind of drink would you recommend to sip on while they listen to your new music?

Something highly caffeinated. I want people to rave to my music. Even the really slow tracks. Headbang so hard your eyes fall out. One trip to A&E please!

2. Please give us an update about – new single, new album, tour dates, new videos?!

New album: Mother’s Fettuccine, releasing October 6th 2023!

Tour dates: All across the UK, March and April 2024!

New videos: When you’ve earned them!

3. We live in times of many conspiracy theories. Which, harmless, theory would you wish were true? (For example Dinos living inside Earth or E.T. living in a home in California)

Birds aren’t real, they’re all government drones. I have pigeons nesting on my roof right now, so it’d be great to know they’re listening to my traditional morning screams.

4. What fashion style or brand would best describe your music?

People say I look like an accountant who just cashed in a twenty pound gift voucher from Next. So, Next.

5. Tell us more about your songs! Topics! Message!?

Topics: how I’m the greatest rapper alive, I pack heat, I smoke vast quantities of marijana, my car is bigger than yours, I’ll murder every other rapper on the planet, et cetera.

Message: just be kind.

6. Beside music, do you have any special talents?

Bare-knuckle boxing, lovemaking, management consultancy.

7. Name 5 things we all should know about you as an artist?!

– I’m a serious rapper
– You should take me seriously
– All of my lyrics are extremely serious
– Please take me seriously
– I’ve got a bloody gun

8. How did you learn to sing/ to write/ to play??

I like to tell people I was born with innate rap talent. That I always knew I could rhyme. That God granted me the gifts of wordplay, rhythm, and barsmithery. But the truth is, I had a lot of spare time in prison.

9. A question you’d like to answer, but never been asked in an interview before?! + Answer pls

Question: What precisely are you working with?

Answer: Eight and a half, on the flop.
