The On-Air Idiots chop it up with Apathy & Big Boi (separately). Above Big Boi talks about a new Outkast album, film projects, the Source Awards in 1995, his dog kennel business and Rihanna’s latest interview. Then after the jump Apathy talks about his new album (Wanna Snuggle), how he linked up with B-Real, why he wants to bumrush an Asher Roth show and why Charles Hamilton is garbage.

Apathy sits down with Van Stylez at UGHH to discuss his “gritty” CT roots, upcoming projects with Demigodz and the Get Busy Committee, plus singing old Jodeci style.

The homie Ap sent this to me last night and asked if I held off posting until today. Leave it to me having google problems and not being able to get it up until now. Dah well… this is the first leak from Apathy’s upcoming album, Wanna Snuggle?, which drops October 6th. Fans of Ap are gonna be pleased to hear that the shit I’ve heard from his upcoming projects (solo album, Get Busy Committee, Demigodz, etc) have all been (2)dope! What’s a Apathy you ask? And I’m sorry, but the artwork is too sweet not to post in full above. Shouts to Open Mic.

Connecticut’s world famous rhyme wrecker returns with a warm hug and a deadly snakebite on his sophomore full length album, “Wanna Snuggle?” Apathy, known as lead MC of the indie fan favorite Demigodz clique as well as a member of Jedi Mind Tricks’ Army of the Pharaohs crew, follows up 2006’s well-received Babygrande Records “Eastern Philosophy” debut with a brand new masterpiece of 21 songs. Painstaking lyricism, strangleholding mic presence, high caliber rap flows and upper echelon neck-snapping production round out this release in true Demigodzilla fashion. Some of the highlights include the uptempo “Shoot First”, which is a Mike Shinoda produced track featuring the legendary B-Real (of Cypress Hill) and Celph Titled, as well as a collaboration with J-Live called “This Is The Formula”. Little Brother’s own Phonte makes a cameo on “True Love”, and some soulful hooks are laced across the album courtesy of Chip-Fu (of Fu-Schnickens) and Wu-Tang vocalist Blue Raspberry. Also contributing a major factor to the album is singer Holly Brook, best known for Fort Minor’s chart topping “Where’d You Go” single and video. Fort Minor, Get Busy Committee, Demigodz and AOTP family are definitely in full effect throughout the project, including Ryu (of Styles of Beyond), Motive, Emilio Lopez, King Magnetic, Veze Skante and more. The bulk of production is handled by Apathy himself, who has been building up a production resume producing for Tiye Phoenix, Styles of Beyond, 7L & Esoteric, Eternia, and upcoming albums from Cypress Hill and Edo G.
