We’ll remember 2021 as a year of triumphs and tragedies, wins and losses, and unifying optimism and aggravated division. In THIS INTERVIEW we revisit the last 12 months from the perspective of Hip Hop artist and film maker Mic Hunter D.
A member of acclaimed group The Fist Coalition, Mic’s stern visionary outlook is felt both in front of and behind the camera. While their fans await his visual masterwork for their current single “Non Fiction”, Mic’s been applauded for his direction of “Filthy” – the video for Sixman’s gritty single that features The Fist Coalition.
