Before the Bling: A-Plus Reflects

06/11/07
. (PR) In the latest edition of the Hierocast (Hiero Imperium's official podcast), Bay Area hip-hop authority ID sits down with rap legend A-Plus to discuss his "long and illustrious career." Going all the way back to his first rhyme in 1982 at the age of 8, A-Plus gives you the inside scoop on his elementary schools days with Del the Funky Homosapien, Tajai, and Casual; Souls of Mischief's successful but frustrating time as a major-label artist; the evolution of Hieroglyphics; and the ups and downs of running your own label.

In addition to his new album My Last Good Deed, A-Plus lets you in on the large number of upcoming projects he's involved in. These include a new line of Hiero Jeans, recording and producing a full length LP with Del, working on a Hiero album in the studio, and finishing a Souls of Mischief album (with a yet-be-announced super-producer). With all of this in the works and more, A-Plus jokes that right now he has "enough to keep me busy." For those truly interested in the Golden Age of Hip-Hop and the struggle that A-Plus and Souls of Mischief underwent during their time at Jive Records, this Hierocast provides never-before-heard stories straight from the man who lived it.
