Want the shoes for yourself???? Check El-P's IG for more info! instagram.com/p/CkQ6daGpK4R/?hl=en
El-P is Deadass right about EPMD influencing G Funk. I heard Erick Sermons funk production on Redman's first album then I eve heard some of the same samples on The Chronic 2 years later.
She really thought he had a tramp-stamp back tattoo lol
El-P is the man. So glad he got all the notoriety he deserves.
He is indeed the man! He's amazing in this interview!
Agreed. Been a fan since the Company Flow days. His rhyme style, content, and beats have always been dope. Happy to see him and Mike get their overdue acclaim.

Amen brother
You could run all the jewels in those shoes. Sick as fuuuuuuck.
Yessssss
El-P has been one of my favorite rappers since 1997.
Same!
So glad to see EL-P getting his flowers. That dude is one of the best producers in hiphop and doesn't get mentioned nearly enough. That is said without even mentioning his bars which are on another level.
❤
This was such an awesome video, I love hearing El-P talk about music, producing, artwork, he's so thoughtful with his choices.
Gotta say, this is my favorite episode so far. There is something about 2 master producers talking.
They were waaaaaay down to geek out together!
Thank you!! ✊🏽
Agreed, love what they had to say about taking elements away as opposed to adding things
This by FAR the best sneaker show. It is the only show that truly respects the culture and history.
I agree
Say that shit with your chest!
These customs are on point! Salute to Just and Katty for properly honoring El-Producto.
I agree
Legends get legendary kicks! Do you have favorites this season?
El-P is a visionary. This show has amazing guests and the interviews are fantastic.
Thanks so so much!
That Cannibal Ox album GOES HARD. Might be one of the most underrated groups ever, so ahead of their time.
EL-P is dope AF and hip hop to the bone
🔥
You speak facts.
El Producto found a spot in my top 5 when Little Johnny from the Hospitul dropped, and not much has changed since.
Pure legend status for El-P!
let's go E-l P dang with the og 90s to.
🔥
Been following El P since his company flow days, and now run the jewels. Glad he’s getting the love he deserves. Keep doing your thing my man.
Appreciate that
El-P is one of the dopest, nicest dudes in hip-hop!! I love been listening to El-P since he was doing the Company Flow music!!
Full agreement
😊
Love seeing El-P & Just Blaze together. Both NYC hip hop legends in their own right.
They need to make a beat in put Killer Mike on it.
2 of my personal top 5 favorite producers. El-P and Just Blaze. And the icing they mention and pay homage to another in my top five Eric Sermon. Plus the sneakers were DOPE
💥
🎯
El-P is legit my favorite human on the planet and I would kill to get a pair of El Nikes.
You don't have to kill -- check his IG -- you can buy them for $1800 with all profits to a food bank!
🔥
Love that they had El P on. Deserves all accolades!
🔥
The sneakers as cool as hell, she did such an amazing job on them 👍👍
El-P and DOOM are my favourite rapper/producers. A nice touch that wasn't touched on (I think) was the colour of the shoe. It is the same colour as The Cold Vein album cover. Very cool. The Blade Runner thing had me going; "OH SHIT!" Love the EPMD reference too. Wonderful.
thank you!
Cold Vein and Fantastic Damage were crazy
Cannibal Ox is by far one of my favorite hip hop groups. El P's production is on another level. All of Def Jux is the shit.
That's a Sick pair of Trainers!
Fair Play El-P is a Ledge.
Peace 😁
These turned out SO 🔥🔥
Yes! AF-1 lows are pure classic.
🔥
Amazing work on this pair of custom El-Producto AF1s! I've only seen two episodes of Fresh Pair but I already know to expect, amazing work from Katty and knowledge and insight from Just Blaze.!
I've been holding on to a CD of Fantastic Voyage for a hot minute (10+ years)! I found it at a pawnshop and I just knew it was that good shit. I found it with 2 Non-Phyxion cds, "Bazooka Tooth" by Aesop Rock and Atmosphere's Lucy Ford EP (which El-P produced tracks on). I didn't quite know what I found but one of my childhood homies spent some time in New York City, dodging the law, doing graf and hanging with his homies Ill-Bill and Necro - he did put me up on the undergroundNYC rap scene in the mid 2000s. Some great artists out there and El-P is one of the sharpest lyricists, I've ever heard (with all due respect to those that have come before...not saying anyone else is shit, El-P is just The Shit) out of the bunch.
it's great seeing legends be legends.
The best ones so far
Appreciate you! Rank em???
Yay
The shoes that she's wearing are slick as well!!
Oh man, to have the opportunity to honor El-P after all these years...This episode brought me so much joy. 👉🤛
Cool 😎
Yesssssss
Fantastic interview and the shoe was dope
Love that energy? Share it with your friends! Help us spread the community!
🙏🏽
🙏🏾
Fat Boys - Fat Boys was the first tape I bought with my birthday card money. Still got it too.
classic
I like the part when E is given credit for that style of sampling; start-stop, half bar loop. Very unique.
They should do a Fresh Pair Episode with hip hop music producer 9th wonder
We most definitely should!
Congratulations. Peace Be With You
I never thought id see Just blaze and El-p share a conversation like this. Crazy dope.
The quality is insane. Doesnt look like their custom made at all.
Love love love that.
That’s the goal!
Exactly 💯
@@justblaze JUST BLAZE IN THE CHAT -- love to see it!
It does, what are you talkin about? These stickers just stick out.
That blue really hits on that gray. Dope color choices.
El-P is a legend man. This was dope
Sneaker check is on the money!!!!
🎯
Always!
Just keeps those kicks in the 5-50K range!
Both amazing producers
Niiiiiccccceee Katty!🔥🔥🔥
🔥
💥💥💥
Shoes are pretty dope I like customs but most are just for the art of but these I could definitely rock
I'm making two comments ok. EL-P grew up in NY. I think in places such as those, there is greater access to a variety of culture and counter culture, which is why, being about the same age, I came upon the culture a bit later with the advent of the internet which somewhat leveled the playing field where I grew up, providing access to these things where it was harder to obtain before.
Love the kicks and the show always watch. I also love hearing my son Jarret laugh.
His laugh is classic!
🔥
So much meaning behind these beautiful shoes 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Appreciate the recognition -- Just and Katty dove deep on these!
I agree 🎯
Personal favorite shoe so far! Nice to know everyone knows what they’re talking about culture/hiphop wise, respect!
Just blaze one of the best producers ever
facts!
Happy to see El Producto get his kicks. Those are sick and extremely well thought out. True Art.

👟👟👟👟👟 I’d rock the hell out of those!

I Fkn love his interviews. He just lived it and lives it. INDEPENDENT AS FUCK
Can we buy these or did yall make these just for him. Just curious. Some of the dopest looking shoes I've seen in years.
YOU CAN BUY THESE! FOR CHARITY! News coming soon -- make sure you follow El-P on IG!
🔥
DEF JUX. MISS THAT LABEL
I was hoping for a weathermen symbol somewhere
Ahhhhh would have been brilliant
I was hoping for a cat somewhere honestly 😄
"I'm awesome, I'm great " -EL-P the GR8
🏆🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💪❤️
Same!
🔥
the best
🎯
How are they gonna skip past any convo around Meow The Jewels?!
Glow in the dark soles some how neon colored wouldve set this tf off, tho. With the reflective swooshes and the other symbols wouldve definitely added another layer.
19:24 (Thank you) My name is El-P, I produce and I rap, too.
Along with Kool G Rap, Wu-Tang, Nas, Hieroglyphics, Mobb Deep, Onyx, Rakim, Big Daddy Kane and many more MCs shaped my youth, funny thing is I grew up, born and Raised in Northern Cali, but I always gravitated towards East Coast hip-hop!!! Don't get me wrong I love lots of West Coast hip-hop, especially Hiero, E-40, Yukmouth etc. But East Coast always had my ear!!
crazy they just leaked the rtj x nike sb recently. Hope I can get a pair but didn't know EL was into sneakers. Mike showed up on an episode of full size run on sole collector channel though.
He definitely dug these and I'm glad they did the RTJ pair -- those are sick!
2:45 fly custom pair FRFR
🔥
El-P > Eminem in production and rapping. Love Just Blaze too.
All greats no doubt
What does Eminem have to do with EL-P? Lmao
@@dmitriantonov2611 Both white rappers / producers just stating El-P better.
El-P cool but them air force some cutt? myyyyyy Adidas
#DEFJUXXIES FOR FKN LIFE #COFLOW ALL FKN DAY BRUH FRFR 🤐🐐🇵🇷
3:18 signed to rawkus? There's some bad things el p would rather happen than that ever again
No pork on the fork 🍴 or feet 🦶!
GRIMEY!!!
