Send us Fan MailEpisode 7 of Kartalk with Krutch pulls up heavy with Nu Jerzey Devil and Kelly G (The Drill Fairy) for a real, unfiltered conversation rooted in hip-hop, hustle, and New York culture.The episode kicks off with Nu Jerzey Devil— artist, producer, actor, and the King of Newark — hopping in the car. Born in the Bronx, raised between the Bronx, New Jersey, and Las Vegas, Jerez breaks down his early life, survival stories, and how a near-death experience in Vegas sent him back east and changed his trajectory.He talks about being sent back to the Bronx, proving academics weren’t the issue by making honor roll at Fordham High School, while still hustling — flipping bud from the city to Jersey for dimes during the chocolate tie era. His brother and cousins eventually pushed him to take music seriously, leading to him trading machinery to get his first turntable.Inspired by DJ Kool Herc and Havoc, Nu Jerzey Devil started throwing house parties, creating his own flyers, and building his sound. That grind led to getting signed by Rodney Jerkins at just 20 years old, working on the Honey movie soundtrack with Amerie, and becoming The Game’s DJ.One of the wildest stories comes from touring Africa (Angola) with The Game — where they were pressured to perform another show, surrounded by armed men, and had their manager temporarily taken hostage. Jerez shares how the manager escaped through a bathroom window and made a straight run for the airport — a trip they never repeated.He also reflects on:•His early rap identity as Anthology•A key track with Fats from Harlem that got his sound noticed•A feature with Lil Wayne while both were living in Miami•A backstage Big Tymers concert story involving Wayne, Nivea, and a whole lot of confusionJerz and Frankie also tap into:•48 Blocks, his Canna brand and lifestyle movement rooted in Atlantic City•Livelihood Films, including the upcoming film Bonnie & Clyde•His acting debut in King of Newark Part 3 (streaming on Tubi)After the interview, Frankie reflects on his own history with Nu Jerzey Devil, including:•Tracks like “I Ride with C4”•“Homies With an Attitude”•Their Backpack Boys collaboration•How New Jersey Devil inspired him to build his own studioThen Frankie slides on Kelly G, aka The Drill Fairy.Kelly G breaks down her journey from Canarsie Bayview to Flossie Babies and The Drill Kids, how she earned the name The Drill Fairy, and her transition from producer platforms like Turn Up Your Producers to stepping fully into her identity as Kelly G.She talks about:•Her viral skits (New York Girl, Old School Dudes, Drinking Henny)•Weird energy in her DMs (from men and women)•Judgments placed on New York women•Why she proudly calls herself the voice for the voicelessKelly G also announces her upcoming work with DJ Self on iHeartRadio, and closes out the episode laughing with Frankie about constantly being told she looks like Faith Evans — which she proudly agrees with.This episode is raw, funny, informative, and rooted in real hip-hop history.Support the show@kartalkwithkrutch on all Platforms!
