Venus Dialogues | War Paint

you may remember a post on Planet Venus of Chip Fu's song, "Endless Search". the reggae love ballad, from a previous project, illustrates Chip's vocal ability and range as an artist. another weapon in the arsenal of an artist best known for his machine gun lyrical delivery.

i had the pleasure of interviewing Chip Fu about his latest project, "War Paint", scheduled for release on the indie label, Blaq Ink. Chip shared with me his motivation for making the album as well as some exciting collaborations from the project. the depth of talent on the album is sure to result in a release that real heads have been thirsting for.

AbsoluteVenus: when will War Paint be released? 

ChipFu: in october but, i will be releasing three singles before then.

AbsoluteVenus: what was your inspiration for the album?

ChipFu: my inspiration comes from understanding that it's time for a change on all levels. it's more so about connecting with one's self. if you ask someone what they represent, they can't answer you. i feel it's time for war...cause in some cases with war comes peace.

AbsoluteVenus: what song(s) will be the first release(s)? 

ChipFu: the first songs are the Vitamin D produced "Tear Gas" and "Flowenometry" produced by Ill Mind.

AbsoluteVenus: any other collabs u wanna mention?

ChipFu: collabs i got > Vinne Paz - "Do It All", Prince Po - "Apathy", Khalil (Bush Babies), T3 (Slum Village) and Del the Funky Homosapien on a song called "Spaceship".
