Interviewing Strange Fruit Project



Just after the release of The Healing, we catch up with Waco, Texas, hip-hop trio Strange Fruit Project to discuss their third album, working with Erykah Badu, and how the three emcees' desperation for a hometown hip-hop scene inspired them to jump-start a movement of their own. The chuckle-filled conversation turns a little harrowing when they recount the story of of Mortimer, a mostly-blind cab driver from Virginia who nearly ends their young careers for a basic nature call.
