SumKid Majere is a self-described scientist and “black nerd.” He’s also been obsessed with writing ever since he first learned how to. “I just feel like writing the way I talk,” he explains, “stories, little novellas, poems and rhyming.” The rhyming aspect of his work is what’s on the verge of taking him to new heights. His first official release was in 2002 with his crew, The VJC (Vinyl Junkies Crew), and since then SumKid has appeared on numerous compilations and mixtapes. At the start of 2006 The VJC released their first LP, Strange Arrangement, and last month SumKid dropped The Lil Folk, which is already getting rave reviews. Today he sits down with me to talk about his work and what aspects of music drew him to the craft.
