DJ King Flow interviews Classical The Great for Mixtape Addict 71.

French DJ and producer DJ King Flow returns with another edition of Mixtape Addict, delivering an expertly curated blend of underground hip hop alongside an exclusive interview with Classical The Great. Broadcast via Scientific Sound Asia, the Vietnam-based international radio station and DJ agency, the show continues to represent lyrical skill, authentic DJ artistry, and the true essence of hip hop culture.

DJ King Flow began his career at just 14, developing a style deeply rooted in Boom Bap yet modernised with a sharp, contemporary edge. His sets pay tribute to hip hop’s golden era while shining a spotlight on emerging underground voices, earning him respect from artists and fans worldwide.

Throughout his journey, he has collaborated with legends such as Ras Kass, Tragedy Khadafi, O.C., Juicy J, and Khujo Goodie, bridging generations and keeping the foundations of hip hop alive. Since launching Mixtape Addict in 2015, he has grown it into a global platform supporting independent hip hop through interviews, mixtape releases, and continuous promotion of real talent.

As a producer, DJ King Flow continues to evolve creatively. His instrumental album The Adventures of F.J. Parker fuses smooth jazz elements, deep house grooves, gritty hip hop rhythms, and soulful R&B undertones. His 2025 singles Money and Give the Town Some Hope highlight his musical range and progression as an artist.

This week’s guest, Classical The Great, joins the show to share his journey as an independent artist and label founder. With a catalogue that includes projects such as Young OG and The Lost Ones, and standout singles like Minor Issues and Numb To It All, he has built a reputation for lyrical intensity and honest storytelling. Together, DJ King Flow and Classical The Great deliver an episode that celebrates authenticity, perseverance, and the continued evolution of real hip hop.

Interview Guest: Classical The Great.

Classical The Great is an American hip-hop artist whose work blends rugged boom bap foundations with raw narrative lyricism. His catalogue features albums like Young OG and The Lost Ones, along with recent singles such as Minor Issues (feat. Dom Savant) and Numb To It All (For The OGs Remix), showcasing his commitment to evolving the sound while staying rooted in true-school hip hop energy.

His style is characterised by dense wordplay, weathered street insight, and a deep respect for the craft of hip hop. He operates from an independent mindset, weaving his life experiences into strength-driven stories that resonate with listeners seeking authentic lyricism. His recent releases emphasise raw beats, reflective themes, and a persistence of purpose.

As an interview guest on the Mixtape Addict show, Classical The Great brings insight into his creative process, his journey as an independent artist, and his dedication to the lineage of boom bap culture. He offers candid commentary on the challenges of staying real in hip hop, his philosophy of artist growth, and how he continues to shape his sound while honouring the roots of the genre.

Mixtape Addict Episode 71 opens with a strong trilogy from Classical The Great (Lakers vs Jazz, Moving Mountains, Rain Man), each track bridging classic Boom Bap with modern lyricism. Their poise and delivery capture the Golden Era ethos while bringing fresh energy to the scene. DJ King Flow builds from that foundation into gritty East Coast territory with E Ness & Peedi Crakk’s Jingling Baby and Big L & Nas’s U Ain’t Gotta Chance, an instant reminder of Hip Hop’s authentic roots.

The mix then moves through lyrical precision with Wais P & Lord Jamar’s Logic and Big Daddy Kane & RZA’s Open Ya Eyes, each showing veteran prowess over dense instrumentation. Tracks like M Dot & Method Man – Shine On and Recognize Ali – Bringing The Rawkus keep the energy high and the message raw. DJ King Flow’s programming cements this hour as a clinic in East Coast craftsmanship and pure Boom Bap authenticity.

Midway, the set finds its depth with Honey Dinero & Team Demo’s Bronx SVU and G Dep & Agallah’s Chicken Feed, reflecting street realities through introspective bars and sample-heavy beats. Meanwhile, Monk.E & Dimeh’s Game Time, and Obleak, Mr Hyde & Tone Spliff’s Ermac Remix inject underground textures with scratched hooks and old-school production flair.

The show closes on a personal note as DJ King Flow interviews Classical The Great, delving into his creative process and vision for reviving Boom Bap in the modern era. Together, they bridge past and present, honouring Hip Hop’s legacy while pushing it forward, a fitting chapter for the Mixtape Addict series, where the beats stay real and the bars cut deep.

The live broadcast is scheduled for Wednesday, October 28th, 2025, from 8 PM to 10 PM Indochina Time (ICT), with a replay planned for Saturday from 8 AM to 10 AM (ICT).
