Six months ago the legendary underground duo of Thes One & Double K, better known as People Under The Stairs, made it’s 7 year return to Vancouver, playing a sold out show in Chinatown at Fortune Sound Club. HHVtv teamed up with the homies at Yeti in the Basement to sit down with PUTS in a hotel lobby in downtown Vancouver just hours before the show. We talked about everything from the groups inception to crazy tour stories and the current state of LA hip hop. Check out the ten minute interview and stay tuned to HHVtv.
