Evidence (of Dilated Peoples) Interview

With a new solo album and a new label (Rhymesayers), rapper Evidence will be the first person to tell you he is prepared to put in nothing less than hard work. We caught up with him before his show right as he received the news his DJ (Fresh) couldn’t fly to the show due bad weather conditions. But obstacles be damned, not only did his improvisational  DJ deliver, Evidence also brought a female fan onstage and began to do a flawless rhyming duet and fearlessly rocked the spot without any “evidence” of hesitation.

“In 2011 putting out a successful album is a mirror of your effort.  If you’re working hard at it and you deserve it, you’re getting paid.” …MORE

Evidence, Cats & Dogs (Review)

Evidence

Cats & Dogs

Released by Rhymesayers


Evidence is that dude. Many heads point to 2007's Weatherman as one of hip-hop's recent treasures. That first solo project, with production from Sid Roams, The Alchemist, Jake One, Babu & Ev (all of whom are back on this one, save Jake One), had a refreshingly crisp sonic blueprint, heavy on the spacy synths and brimming with soul. Having now made a switch from the lost-at-sea ABB to Rhymesayers with a Layover (EP) in between, everything is back in order for the dilated one to drop another top-drawer record.

Evidence x The Beatles Project Leaked (MP3)

The latest chapter in rap’s continuing love affair with the Beatles comes via Evidence’s I Don’t Need Love. Although the project was not initially intended to leak, the Dilated emcee has embraced it and spread the free download for public consumption. Following in the footsteps of Danger Mouse’s The Grey Album, Evidence’s record is a unique mash-up of two very disparate styles highlighted by the soulful opener “Because.” The production on the nine song outing employs the Beatles’ vocals as instruments unto themselves. Guest shots on I Don’t Need Love include Rakaa, Oh No, Fashawn and a hilarious cameo from Dirt Nasty on the hidden track. Look out for Evidence’s Rhymesayers debut Cats & Dogs in 2011.
