An original member of the legendary San Francisco group Bored Stiff, Big Shawn is equally respected for both his rapping and his production. With an extensive discography including 5 Bored Stiff albums, a plethora of solo albums and instrumental albums, and a variety of different side group projects, not to mention production scattered across other albums, chances are that if it’s hip-hop and it’s from San Francisco, it’s somehow been influenced by Big Shawn. Em Dub of Thizzler On The Roof got a chance to chop it up with Big Shawn about how he got into hip-hop, the origins of Bored Stiff, his group Sound Earth, what’s coming up, his advice for independent artists and more. He also spit an off the dome freestyle in part 2, stay tuned!
