Come As You Are, with Christian Archer

Podcast von Christian Archer

Come As You Are is about creating a safe space where musicians and recording artists can come to reflect on the lifestyle of making music and being radically self reliant. Its a place for artists to share their origin stories, their darkest moments, brightest days and everything in between. I hope that these conversations can shed light on what it takes to become a success in the music industry, as well as connect you just a bit more with your favorite artists.

In Conversation: Fresh Daily

Fresh Daily is an Oakland based Hip-Hip recording artist & graphic designer hailing from Brooklyn's legendary Bed-Stuy neighborhood. Over the course of Fresh Daily's long career in Hip-Hop he has been responsible for the creation of what are, in my opinion, two of the most iconic musical releases of hip-hop's mythic blog era. Those projects, Mothership/Land and The Quiet Life, were formative and world expanding soundscapes that found me at the right time of my youth, grabbed me, and never let go. In our conversation we touched upon everything from how he navigated COVID with his community to NYC streetwear, Afro-centricity, and of course, Hip-Hop. We caught up shortly after the release of his highly-anticipated project, The Quiet Life 2, Needless to say, sitting down with Fresh was one of the coolest moments of my life so far and I hope you all enjoy the conversation as much as I did.
