Interview with UK Rapper Jovel Walker
Hailed by listeners as “The only UK rapper I’d spend money on,” Jovel Walker, also known as Random Impulse just released his newest independent album “Full Metal Alchemist”.
Ucombo: We’ve had the pleasure listening to the tracks on your newest release “Full Metal Alchemist”. I’m very much impressed by your clear sense of descriptiveness shown in the songs and your unique rapping style.
Ucombo: Could you tell us about the inspiration and story behind making this wonderful new project?
Jovel: you want the truth? anime! i’m a super nerd and i watch Japanese religously. The concept behind the album is based on a theory i took from the anime “full metal alchemist” (hence the album tittle) which is alchemy is understanding matter, breaking it down, then reconstructing it as somthing else, so what i did is take all my musical influences break them down, then take all the bits that i found amazing and used it to make something completely different. Nerdy as hell right?
