Tell us about Warchyld and how you got your name?
My name comes from the streets of Philadelphia. Philly is a tough city growing up I felt like children in third world counties who face casualties of WAR often, from close friends shot and kidnapped to the 80’s error of drug wars.Thats were the name Warchyld comes from and if you ever been to Philly im sure you can understand!
How the music scene is in Philadelphia?
It’s tough like everywhere else right now. We now have more indie artist than ever and its a lot of dope artist in my city so the temperatures rising with pressure on who will make it to the top I call it survival of the fit!
Not to long ago you released “The Streets Is Back” With DJ Kay Slay, how do you feel about the project as a whole?
This mixtape is like my baby! It’s my first real release to show the world that I mean business and im playing for keeps! I love everything about the album and I hope the fans will to. I have been very fortunate to blessed with features from Jacki 0, Capone of CNN, Mistah F.A.B, Billy Danze of M.0.P, Slim of 112 and a rare feature with Roscoe P. Coldchain who is incarcerated for a double life sentence that alone makes this mixtape/street album the most special thing I have ever done.

Last but not least, We want to know…What’s your CRAZIEST “Where they do that at?!” moment…
Awww Man!!!! [Laughs] I remember I went to a club in Live 0ak, Florida and when we walked in the club it had dirt on the floor like a dirt road. I remember it like it was yesterday I had a fresh pair of Nike air’s on “all white” and I just remember being really mad and saying where they do that at [laughs].
