Video Premiere: Danny Brown x Scion AV "Grown Up" Interview

Okayplayer is proud to premiere this Scion AV interview with rap star and refreshingly honest dude Danny Brown.going into the source material of his hit-in-the-making "Grown Up." In fact, judging by the Philly skyline in the back and D. Brown's mad familiar looking ensemble, I am pretty sure this candid conversation was shot between sets at this summer's Roots Picnic--so I like to think OKP was even responsible in some small way for making this joint possible. Danny goes in on his actual growing-up in Detroit, the positive effects of boredom and the auto industry, what it takes to portray a 9-year old Danny Brown in the song's official video and how to stay in touch with your inner pre-teen. Watch below to absorb the energy.
