Greedhead artist Big Baby Gandhi earned his way into Impose's Best Albums of March list with his No 1 2 Look Up 2 mixtape. It was a mixtape so good and in its own world, we heavily considered giving it top honors. It's in the opening moments of "Long Ass Intro". It's an invitation that begins in a small claustrophic space that takes its time opening up into the celebratory Indian bounce of "Blue Magic". From there you've stepped into Big Baby Land and he's in your ear until he's literally exhausted himself of bars.When I phoned Big Baby Gandhi, he was still in an auditorium for a course at St. John’s University. The class was over, but we postponed the interview for 5-minutes so he could get to a quieter place to talk about juggling his rap life with his pursuit of a degree in pharmacy and the finer points of his recently released No 1 2 Look Up 2 mixtape.Read the interview over at Impose.
