Summary: In this episode, I’m talking to rapper, comedian, filmmaker, and Magic player, Billy the Fridge. Billy started with local rap battles in the Seattle area and making his own films on a budget. Soon, his creativity made it to the front page of Reddit and where his thoughtful lyrics and edgy visual style caught the attention of millions. Billy is true Magic player at heart, writing and performing Cardboard Crack, an ode the game we love. Since then, Billy has completed his latest album “ill!” which is out now. Billy met up with me last summer 2017 to talk about music, his creative process, and of course Magic: The Gathering. I hope you enjoy my conversation with rapper, Billy the Fridge.
