BLP Kosher Interview | Growing up in Florida, Skateboarding, Inspirations, Cole Bennett & More!

#OGM #OurGenerationMusic #BLPKosher
“Don’t let anybody tell you it’s unrealistic to follow your dreams,” BLP Kosher says, admittedly fighting through allergies in his first-ever sit down interview. His skater swag seethes through his black, block-letter “HOCKEY” beanie, blue flannel and trademark wicks that hang right over his ears. His look may incite double takes and endless meme posts, but the 22-year-old Florida rapper means all business - clad with a clear vision for success a decade down the line. “Never judge a book by its cover,” he said. “Everybody is here for a reason, and I know the reason of why I’m here, where I’m supposed to go and the stepping stones I’ll use to get there.”
The Broward County-adjacent, Deerfield Beach native is perhaps the most misunderstood artist in rap’s current landscape. From the pages’ worth of haters flooding his comments, “helping out my algorithm” in the process, to channeling his Jewish background on tracks like "Mazel Tron," "Jew in a Canoe" and "Dreidel Twinz," this isn’t a gimmick for Kosher, who knows his purpose well enough to embrace those who love and hate him. Genuine to his core, the final five minutes of his conversation with OGM’s Hakeem Rowe offers greater insight to his intentions. It’s as if the cameras are turned off, offering real advice for our generation and calculated intent towards the next steps of his career. He is far from the “finesse game” the music industry so frequently presents. “I want to do this our way. I don’t want handouts,” he said. “I don’t want to feel like I made it in music just because someone made a call or somebody put money behind me.”
With his new album, ‘Bars-Mitzvah,’ on the way, BLP Kosher chopped it up with OGM host Hakeem Rowe in his inaugral on-camera interview, speaking on his forthcoming album, "Mazel Tron" with Cole Bennett and BabyTron, his come-up in Broward County, the importance of spirituality in his life, his musical inspirations and more in this Our Generation Music exclusive.

Just started listening to him like 2-3 months ago & told everybody that would listen that he was going to blow soon bc he’s just too good and unique. And sure enough he just put out the song with Babytron & then Cole shot the music for Lyrical Lemonade. Now he has his first interview & it’s all just going to go up from here. Can’t wait to see his his future projects.
