New Interview: A-Plus of Hieroglyphics on SF Weekly
As part of the mighty Souls of Mischief crew, A-Plus ushered in a new style of Bay Area rap with the group's breezy and effortless "'93 'Til Infinity" anthem. Also a mainstay in the Hieroglyphics movement, the rapper and producer has been involved with releases from Del, Pep Love, and Casual, and earlier this year released his own Pepper Spray EP project, which is hooked around giving songs by the Red Hot Chili Peppers a hip-hop make-over.
Here then, A-Plus looks back at five of the most notable musical projects he's been involved in since his early-'90s introduction. It's a set of anecdotes that includes the perils of living with Prince Paul in a house full of spiders, the musical gatekeeper role of George Clinton's pet dog, and the revelation that "'93 'Til Infinity" was originally a Pep Love song.
