S2 Episode 15: Sadistik

My guest this week is Seattle rapper Sadistik. We spoke about Everything Everywhere All At Once, The Batman, the films of Gaspar Noe and Lars von Trier, how The Blob and Quentin Tarantino kickstarted his fascination with film, Stephen King adaptations, the benefits of pushing the boundaries of art, his love for New York and Southern rap, the pros and cons of being honest in your music, his creative process, and working with rapper-producer Kno on their latest collab Bring Me Back When The World Is Cured.

Bring Me Back When The World Is Cured is available wherever music is sold, streamed, or stolen. Consider copping directly from Bandcamp. Follow Sadistik on Instagram (@sadistik) and Twitter (@TheRealSadistik)
