Mike Hammer: Sage Francis

MIKE HAMMER: Sage Francis

Sage Francis tears holes in hypocrisy and mainstream hip-hop with his thoughtful stories of the human condition. The wordsmith spits rhymes that make you think, make you smile, and flow beautifully over high-tempo beats. His new album, Human the Death Dance, was released May 8 on Epitaph Records and has charted well on Billboard’s “Top Independent Albums” list. The album is a hip-hop work of art that mixes cutting edge beats from indie rap producers like Alias and Reanimator and Ant, as well as Sage’s...

WERS was great - Emerson radio station - I hope it's still broadcasting. Nice interview, Mike

WERS is still up and running....and Jolie Holland is one that gives you spinal chills; i want to marry her

I used to like Sage for awhile. His music is still good, but his utter disrespect for some of his fans turns me off.

looking forward to finally seeing this guy on tour. i've heard only great things....

Nice, Ive been hooked on sage ever since I heard Makeshit Patriot a few years ago.

Nice interview. He trimmed the fuck out of hid beard since I last saw him though

I love sage francis, enjoyed the interview. Can't wait to see him at rock the bells!

One day he will bear my children, and he'll do it with a smile on his face.

The combination of El-P and Mr. Francis is a one-two-combo that you just can't beat. Clarity, and grit in the same place.

slow down gandhi your killing them

Sage is my number one lyrical inspiration... I bear the LI(f)E tattoo with pride! "Life is just a lie with an 'f' in it... and death is definite"
