The Arrow Of Parow is super stoked to be one of the
supporting acts for rapper Eminem's first tour of South Africa. The Beat had a
"dop" (drink) with Jack Parow while he was still trying to pinch himself
that he is actually gonna open for Eminem, and he also talked to us about his
latest killer double CD, 'Nag Van Die Lang Pette'.

Awesome release Jack!
Why did you decide on doing a double CD? With the state of album sales and
obviously the economy I wanted to give everyone something that really was worth
spending money on. I think I hopefully did that.
The electro CD is
just brilliant! Why going electro with CD 1? Like all things in life I'm
zero to 100 from the get go and only think about the consequences afterwards,so
that's why you listen to the electric side first and then when you're hungover
you listen to the acoustic and try and puzzle all the shit you caused together.
Dans Met My ft
Klipwerk Orkes is one of my favourite tracks. Never new boeremusiek and electro
could go so well together. How did you manage to get the Klipwerf Orkes
involved with the CD and what did they make of the final production of the song?
I actually originally did it for a show called jam sandwich that Deon Maas set
up, and it came out so lekker and they are such amazing and cool musicians that
I decided it has to be on my album so that everyone that knows me can hear it.
They loved the final product, so I'm happy!
I found the radio
raps hilarious and so you. Who is the voice behind the radio raps and who wrote
the verses for those radio raps? It's a friend of mine, he is nextlevel,
check him out,he is all over the internet and jou ma se agterplaas. He wrote it
all himself, or actually probably just winged it, he makes me cry.
CD 2 is more chilled
than CD 1. Did you find it harder to record the acoustic versions of the songs,
or was it a natural flow for you? It was actually a pretty easy vibe
because I was lucky enough to be working with amazing musicians such as Loki
Rothman and Justin de Nobrega...so it really was just a shit load of fun
