We had the pleasure of interviewing G. Love over Zoom video.

South of Market Street, south of the Liberty Bell, south of the Walt Whitman Bridge and Pat\u2019s and Geno\u2019s lies an entirely different Philadelphia: Philadelphia, Mississippi. On the surface, these two Phillies couldn\u2019t be any less alike\u2014one, a bustling East Coast metropolis, the other, a small town a thousand miles away in the Deep South\u2014but for G. Love, the connections were undeniable.

Produced by North Mississippi All-Stars\u2019 Luther Dickinson, Philadelphia Mississippi brings together both sides of G. Love\u2019s eclectic career, mixing old school Hill Country and Delta Blues with new school hip-hop and funk to forge a sound that\u2019s both wildly innovative and deeply reverent all at once. The songs are loose and spontaneous here, often penned on the fly in improvisatory fits of inspiration, and the performances are similarly freewheeling, bringing together a slew of special guests from blues torchbearers like Alvin Youngblood Hart and Christone \u201cKingfish\u201d Ingram to rap icons like Schoolly D and Speech from Arrested Development. It would have been easy for G. Love to play it safe coming off his GRAMMY-nominated 2020 release, The Juice, but Philadelphia Mississippi is perhaps his most adventurous, ambitious collection to date, tossing all the rules out the window as it experiments with form and function in an ecstatic celebration of music\u2019s power to connect across genres and generations.

G. Love\u2019s upcoming album Philadelphia Mississippi will be available as a limited edition NFT. After purchasing the initial "Origin" NFT, token holders will be airdropped a second NFT which unlocks both a downloadable and streaming version of the new record, as well as a 180-gram vinyl. A limited number of token holders will be randomly selected to win special edition vinyl pressings, ticket bundles, and more.
