He’s a tall white kid shaggy hair and a goatee. He looks more like he belongs in an issue of Thrasher than The Source, but Ivan Ives has more flow than most of the MCs you probably listen to. With an unorthodox background and an indie hip-hop style, Ives is poised to take his unique brand of hip-hop to a global level with his latest offering "Newspeak". Outside a recent show in Los Angeles, Ives hooked up with RefinedHype's Jose Ho-Guanipa to talk with us his unique appearance, being an indie artist and his plans to take over 2010.
Nice! It's great to see Ivan getting continued exposure! The most recent mixtape Eat Pork And Cry has been on repeat in my car for the last month.Ivan is such a dynamic recording and performing artist. Big ups to you fellas for supporting one of my favourite indie artists out there!
