Sick Jacken is a veteran in the game. After being co-signed
by B-Real he dropped the debut Psycho Realm album in 1997. Tragedy struck soon
after when his brother and partner in rhyme Big Duke was shot and left
paralysed. Since then Jacken has emerged as one of the illest and most well
respected MC’s working today. I recently had the opportunity to speak with
Jacken and put some questions to him. We touched on a lot of different points
of his career so far, from discussing his classic project with DJ Muggs at
length to his work with Cynic and the possibility of a true solo album.
