What Would You Ask Elephant Man? Seeking Questions 4 Interview
-
Artist:
-
Album:
I've always liked Elephant Man. His style is bold and totally unique while his music is upbeat and fun. He is part gangsta rapper and part dancehall raver. His roots in the dancehall community run deep and as such, his music is full of commentary on the current situation in Jamaica and the Jamaican community living in NYC. Ele is also a big promoter of the different dancehall dances, the moves associated with each riddim, and he always sports the latest moves at his concerts and videos. Have you learned the Gully Creeper yet?At the same time, he has strong ties to the hip hop community. He hangs out with other rappers, makes music with Swizz Beatz Young Joc and Busta Rhymes, and was recently signed to Diddy's label Bad Boy Records. He's done smoldering duets with Rihanna and Kat DeLuna for his new album, as well as both of their albums.To me, Elephant Man is a living mash-up of cultures. He is the common ground between hip hop and reggae. He represents the universal struggle in modern urban society combined with the desire to stay upbeat, to keep fighting and to keep celebrating life and love.Are there any other Elephant Man fans here? Or, anyone who finds him absolutely offensive? What would you say to him if you had the chance?I was fortunate enuff to secure an interview with the "Energy God" himself this week (Tuesday) and I'm looking for suggestions on what to ask him about. I have plenty of ideas of course, but I'd love to include questions from you!Any question will be considered, but I'm supposed to keep it somewhat related to current affairs and his new album which drops next week. Sorry about the last-minute notice, I just got the final confirmation for the interview.Hip hop fans and dancehall fans UNITE and tell me your burning questions for Elephant Man!
