Drinking Partners #198 – BBGuns

“You can’t pause me for a physical reaction that you had,” Ed informs Day as the latest Drinking Partners podcast starts. Promising to be wild, they welcome Barz Blackman and JP from indie rock/hip hip band BBGuns who open the interview by discussing their unique style that crosses genres and combines varying influences. From the importance of a beat and hook to the process of song writing, Barz and JP open up about how the BBGuns sound and spirit developed, which leads to a larger discussion on the music industry, albeit with a Drinking Partners spin (be ready to laugh). Keep listening as Ed admits how he will celebrate “making it,” after he prods Barz and JP to have crazier goals, despite their practical inclinations. Toward the end of the interview, the group talks about social media and manufactured moments and how to connect the personal and professional. To close the podcast, Ed, Day, Barz, and JP fulfill the promise to be wild as they examine cheap labor in an indescribable, wacky, and at times loud manner.
