Verbal Intercourse: Trademark Da Skydiver & Young Roddy [Video]



From Shabazz:

Just like the fixed-winged aircraft the posse name takes after, New Orleans' young bred, Trademark Da Skydriver and Young Roddy, are propelled with high-powered raps with equipped majestic instrumentation, noted to best enhance a listener indulging herbal dosage to sky altitude. They were introduced to the game by the head pilot, Curren$y, and his Jets International imprint, but after quickly showing that they can steer their own plane, the two generals did just that - complimenting each other’s solo personalities on tracks.

Though they're solo acts in their own rights, the duo make their lasting impression on the Curren$y-featured track, 'Roasted'. However, the trio can be traced back to the Young Money days, along with Trademark's 'Super Villain' mixtape series. Their official collaborative effort, 'Jet Life To The Next Life' debuted with Spanish production crew Cookin' Soul, and the two youngsters continued to showcase their glow on this year's 35-city 'Smoker's Club Tour' with Method Man, Curren$y, Big K.R.I.T., and more.

I got the pleasure to join the boys fresh after the release concert of their most recent Jet Life family compilation effort, 'Jet World Order'. Trademark and Roddy took time out to chat about the basic background origin of The Jet Set and the distinctive class of beats the crew rhymes on. They even recall the time a classic New Orleans' Soulja Slim record came out. Of course the two indulged in my randomness, and I even struck a cord and got Trademark to talk about his love for comic books.
