  • ENCORE: Mediopicky
    2024/10/18
    This week, we’re re-running a conversation we had with a very special guest: Dominican rapper, producer, and podcast fave Mediopicky. We talked back in 2021 (¡en español!) about his latest releases, collaborations, growing up in a household of four women, and the wide range of music that shaped his sound. He just put out a new album, "el precio de la yuca" earlier this fall — highly recommend — and we thought it was a great time to revisit our chat.
