"As a fan of martial art and old Japanese Samurai movies, I have always wanted to be a part of such creativity and to have my own spice added is even better. Many hip-hop artists and musicians from the late '80s to now have been inspired by this form of entertainment, and today's animators have been stimulated by hip-hop. But, usually these two forms of expression never meet in the same realm of artistry."
"'Afro Samurai' offers me the opportunity to mix the innovational world of hip-hop with the visual imagination of Japanese animation. The vibe of 'Afro Samurai' is so soulful and cool, that when I was asked to compose the series my creative juices immediately reacted. I felt it was something meant for me to do; in many ways Afro and myself share the same spirit."
Le 1er épisode de cette série sera difusé le 4 janvier sur Spike TV
La soundtrack sortira le 16 janvier via Koch Records
