The erratic trio that go by the name of Pilot Episode are coming back for a third instalment at Sub Rosa this Wednesday. This time they’ve brought pals from Craigie Cartel. In true Pilot Episode style, here’s their early noughties RnB to get to know…
A thousand welcomes to their friends Pilot Episode and Craigie Cartel, streaming from a live skype feed, we have finally managed to get a strong signal and are catching up. We say friends, however it’s a bond, which is more similar to a family friend, whereby you refer to your mum’s best friend as ‘auntie’ and thus her son/daughter becomes your ‘cousin’, which can often come in handy, especially if they happen to be tough as nails.
So Pilot Episode and Craigie Cartel, here is your…50 Cent 21 – Questions
