Exclusive Interview With XL Middleton & Young Sau - By : Rud - August 19, 2010



Last month we informed you that the project we've been updating on since March, XL Middleton & Young Sau's album "There Goes The Neighborhood" was finally in stores and online. In a world where West Coast artists are slowly declining on the radio as well as in retail outlets in recent years, independent artists like XL and Sau have taken the opportunity to fill this void with their distinctive styles and infectious sound.

Conjuring up memories of better times for the coast, this dynamic duo bring to the table a full length album with introspective street narratives and party records that appeal to listeners across the globe.

J-Double, a new and welcome contributor to Dubcnn, recently sat down with both XL Middleton and Young Sau to discuss their new album, find out how it came to be, as well as what fans can expect if they havent got hold of it yet.

Dubcnn: XL, your recently dropped the Middle Class Blues album, how has the reception been overall and are there any plans for another solo record?

I’m working on my next album right now. For now I’m calling it “The Hedonistic Album”. It’s gonna be a hella musical, party record. I’m talking live instruments, breakdowns, bridges, all that shit. It’s gonna be real opposite of “Middle Class Blues”, a real upbeat feel good type of album, because I feel like the West Coast is really missing that element. We too damn serious now, it’s like nobody’s allowed to have fun anymore.

Interesting Looking froward to this!
Props for the interview folks!!
Xl and YoungSau, did a good job on this project!
Been a FAN OF xL!
