9th Wonder Talks Label, The Wonder Year Doc

HoodHype recently caught up with vet underground producer 9th Wonder while attending October "s A3C Festival in Atlanta, GA. 9th talked about his upcoming projects with his own imprint Jamla Records. 9th said that he "s going to focus on promoting his line-up of artists and ensuring that they achieve a greater level of success.

"It "s all about my label [Jamla Records] now," he stated. "I want to be promoting them and [helping] them mak[e] it - whatever you call "making it. " [I want them to] be successful, at least to be paid out here, and that "s what "s important, man. That "s what I want for them."

9th also talked about the documentary that one University of North Carolina student earning his Master "s degree made about him, titled The Wonder Year. He explained that the filming took a year to complete and that the film is more than just twelve months in his shoes.

"The movie [The Wonder Year] is directed by my brother Kenneth Price, my brother from another mother and color," he said. "He was getting his Master "s at UNC Greensboro, and for his Master "s thesis, he wanted to do a year-long documentary on me. When I watched [the first cut of it], I told him I hope you "re ready for what you have created because this is bigger than just you getting your piece of paper saying that you got your Master "s...it "s bigger than Hip Hop."
