We recently politicked with Washington, DC hip hop artist Eezy Money about the DMV Movement, Justin Timberlake, Kid Ink, and more.
Po: Thanks for coming thru politicking with us. For our first question, could you share a little about your background and how you got involved in music?
Eezy: Well I’m from Northeast Washington, DC. Early on I had the average life of a youngin in the inner city part of D.C., I grew a love for music early on. I always received encouragement with it, and I realized that I was talented. Here I am now.
Po: I interviewed many artists from the DMV and there is most certainly a movement popping. As a hip hop artists, what would you say you bringing to the movement?
Eezy: Along with a few other artist I bring the PURE D.C. feel to the movement. Early on in the DMV era I was a part of the building of the “DMV”. So I know what we have and what we can be. Right now I’m just trying to show leadership in focusing on moving to bigger milestones. Just as we were an era in the underground scene here, there have been a couple after us, we have to do what we have to do to assure that the coming generations have the game in their hands.
Po: What are five things you cannot live without?
Eezy: My son, My daughter, My family, My lady and LOUD music lol
