Interview with Hype Williams



Who are you and when did you start making music together?
2008, it got given to Roy by me and my papi Ronnie. Those guys gotta pass on again by 2011.
What they do with it is up to them really.


What are your musical backgrounds? Roy, you've earlier played bass in Graffiti Island?
Yeah, I started it with Pete and Cherise. We had a baby together, just wanted different things for it.


What is the difference between Paradise Sisters and Hype Williams?
Paradise Sisters is Roy and 18 of our friends playing in complete darkness. I have no fucking idea how those kids do it.


Roy, you've earlier said that there's no reason to see you play live. Why is that?
Don't believe everything I say. Trust me.


Tell us about Fruit Bats Forevr. What does it sound like if you play it backwards?
It sounds like a monologue an actor has to him/herself in the mirror after a meeting where the producers of the soap opera he/she acts in decide to make his/her character skip 10 years and be 18 all of a sudden. Hence he/she has to find another job. Unemployment at 8 sucks.


Does drugs affect your music? If so, in what way? What is your relation to drugs?
Talk to Frank.


What’s your description of good music?
The Devil (the band not the guy).


What inspires you?
Problem Chalwa 4.


What does the word innocence mean to you?
Inscense.


What makes you sad?
Lack of inscense.
