My Lady sent me this video. It’s Andrew Matson (music columnist for the Seattle Times) interviewing the rapper Grynch. Matson asks him about the critics who complain that Grynch does a whole lot of “rapping about rapping,” a similar critique I made in my review of his latest release, the Chemistry EP.

Grynch says that he raps about stuff he knows. It’s a nice honest answer and really the only thing we, as fans, can hope for from our favorite artists. Here’s hoping Grynch continues to blow up the spot in Seattle and beyond and that his growth as an emcee results in even better, more interesting rhymes.
