- Mr. Beck Hanson was interviewed on NPR the other day. He states that he really doesn't rap, because "it doesn't come from hip-hop." He goes on "I used to hang out with a lot of poets and people who did spoken word. So I think I thought my rap — quote 'rap' — songs were coming from that." Listen/Read... here.
