Maestro Fresh Wes recently was interviewed by HipHopCanada.
HipHopCanada: How did you end up collaborating with Saukrates on here, and how did he end up deciding to play the violin for the track? Maestro Fresh Wes: Soxx pulled out his violin just to lay a reference for a violinist. But I’m glad he kept it… he’s dope. I was like, “We’re gonna keep that track! You smashed it!” He said he was inspired by some Al Green tunes.
HipHopCanada: You’ve been fortunate enough to be involved in the representing Canadian athletes – as a Canadian musician – for a few years now. What’s that experience been like for you? Maestro Fresh Wes: With these songs I get the opportunity to put myself in the mind of an athlete: What are they aspiring to achieve ? That’s why a lot of these songs have a triumphant feel to them.
