Artist Spotlight: Interview with Bam Militi

New York based rapper, Bam Militi, is true and unapologetic towards his style and approach to the Hip-Hop foundation. Being a writer at heart, Bam wishes to restore balance within Hip-Hop and create music that can both resonate and inspire those who listen. 

I.AM.Unsigned recently caught up with the rapper to discuss his his start in music, relocating to New York, and the inspiration behind his new mixtape!

What was your first rapping/music experience like? 

Well, I was kind of young when I had my first rapping experience, you know? I was just always freestyling to myself here and there. After a while I started writing and in Junior High school I tried to form a group with my homeboys, and we did some demo tapes at the time. 

Who were some of your influences at the time that inspired you to start rapping? 

Well, I used to look up to Run DMC and LL Cool J a lot. Growing up in East Elmhurst at the time, I was around a lot of rappers that I used to see all the time. I would see Kool G & Polo, Sweet T, Kwame, you know, rappers like that. I’m actually seeing these dudes on TV, then seeing them around the neighborhood and its a big inspiration to me. 

So when did you begin to take music seriously, outside of looking to create these groups and record demos for leisure? 

I would have to say it was like when I was in Florida. I had a group called Third Degree and we were really trying to make things happen when I was out there. DJ Prostyle used to actually be my DJ, before he became “Prostyle”. He lived in our neighborhood in Florida and we used to go to his crib to record tracks and get things moving from there. 

After that, I had moved to New York we all had kind of lost contact, so that was the end of that. I had later met some dudes from from the projects that I was living in and we had a nice little organization going on, doing shows and stuff like that. 

So it wasn’t too hard having to readjust in a different environment, after creating something in Florida?

Nah, the only difference was that in New York you really had to show your raps skills, nobody was just accepting anything, you really had to come hard with your raps for people to appreciate you. I was coming from Florida and people were expecting me to have a Florida type flow or something like that, but I was a writer and I always wrote my own joints. [Writing] is what people knew me for and they started appreciating me as [a writer], as my name started to get around a bit.

When did you really begin to record your own music, if you haven’t already? 

I actually have never really put out a project on my own, but I’ve been in the studio making joints with other people. I had this homeboy who had this corporation called Next Mill Entertainment and he was trying to push us forward a lot. He actually had us in nice studios and recording with high quality equipment. 

Was being more group oriented, in terms of making music, helpful for you or something you preferred, as opposed to being a solo artist? 

Yeah definitely, I loved doing music as a group. I enjoyed making music by myself, but I rather be with a group of people with the same mindset. 

I’d assume then that it was this mindset that led you to working with the Power Circle, or at least meeting the guys? 

I had already knew about the Power Circle, but didn’t know anyone personally expect for GreyCloud and Ciph (Roundz). They were real close friends of mine. Through them I used to hear about the Power Circle and its movement, but didn’t really get too involved because I didn’t fully know what it was about. I knew that it was a movement, because listening to their music, I found what I was looking for. I would always say that Hip-Hop needed this balance because there’s no balance out there. Once I started listening to the Power Cirlcle, I was like “wow this is the balance I was looking for”. 

I had always appreciated their movement, but I really got involved with them through my cousin at Kix Mag who wanted to to a Cypher and he told me to check out the dudes from Power Circle. He had been a fan of theirs for a while and had wanted to do something with them for his magazine. From there I started talking to OneSun and the rest of the guys, and that’s how we started the Kix Mag Cypher. Once I started getting to know everyone individually, we started moving forward from there. 

Can you tell us about anything you may be working on now? What are you doing musically at the moment (solo or collaborations)? 

Riht now I’m working on a mixtape with OneSun and it should be coming out around March. I’m definitely back in the studio and just did about three joints and I;m about to lay some more down. I’m just trying to bring back that old Hip-Hop feel man. This mixtape is called Back to the Basics, and I’m basically taking it back to the real format of Hip-Hop and how it used to sound, you know what I’m saying? 

Since you mention the older format of Hip-Hop, what are your thoughts about the current state of Hip-Hop and artists in the industry? 

Hip-Hop to me right now might be in a sad state, you can play a lot of party music and all that, but Hip-Hop is a culture and a means to express yourself through music. For me, I feel like people aren’t expressing themselves and are just going off of what the last person said. If there was more music with reason behind it, it wouldn’t look like Hip-Hop is in a sad state right now. There isn’t too much that inspirational to the kids and everything is negative. Hip-Hop was never like that, there was always this balance of positivity & negativity. . 

Do you think that you and OneSun or whoever else, would be able to help fill that void or contribute to the balance of Hip-Hop? 

Yeah definitely, because that’s the type of music they make [OneSun/ The Power Circle], you know what I’m saying? I appreciate the music they make and there are other artists out there that make great music that isn’t heard yet either. Once you keep putting a certain type of energy out there, people will start to gravitate towards it. The emcees that are doing it will hopefully get heard and if it’s pushed the correct way, more people will hear it. 

When did you teach yourself how to write then, or how to at least write songs? 

I definitely had to teach myself how to [write songs], but with writing in general it came natural to me and I always used to read Dictionaries and different little books. The stuff that I used to read in my books and magazines, I would write them out, highlight them or jot stuff down on a piece of paper and then just formulate a rhyme out of it. I always used to try and challenge myself with my writing technique and I had loved it, so it was never really a problem for me. Ever since I could remember I was always writing something down. I had ended up just writing so much that my scraps became a journal, but a journal for my raps. 

Where do you see your self within the next few years, especially after taking a break from music for bit? 

Yeah I had taken a little break from the music and was trying to be more behind the scenes with everything I was starting to do. I was trying to create my own video team for music videos and try to push Kix Mag on the U.S. side a little further. I’ll be doing that and pushing this mixtape [Back to The Basics]. 

As far as the future goes, I see myself being successful on a larger scale or even in the underground scene. I believe I can do it, and get some positive music out there.
