As music fans, sometimes it’s the more candid, behind-the-scenes footage of our favorite artists that catches our attention and entertains us the most. Thanks to the people at Panik Room Productions, we have that type of footage of Kutt Calhoun, Stevie Stone and Cognito. Shot in the tour bus while they were out on the K.O.D. Tour, this clip includes; Cognito showing off a track from his latest album, Automatic, Kutt Calhoun ripping a ”Stevie Stone” freestyle, and of course, some areolas.
We love videos like this, so we figure you do too. This Youtube video chronicles the experience of a fan receiving hisAutomatic pre-order through the mail. We get to be along for the ride as he opens the package, reviews the contents and gets his first taste of the album.
Cognito is featured in this month’s issue of Xplosive Magazine with a cover mention and interview along with west coast Strange Music cohort Brotha Lynch Hung. Along with that we found this audio interview conducted by DJ Pimp with Cognito. The interview is three parts. At the beginning, DJ Pimp spans Cognito’s career and all the people that he has met along the way. It’s a very informative account and the interview spans to a total of three parts. The interview is pre-Automatic so there’s a lot of talk of things that already happened, but none-the-less it’s an informative interview.

During his time in Des Moines, Iowa on the Strange Days tour, Cognito sat down with Dat Muthafucka Steve from EmceeTV for an interview.
