What goes through your mind before you get on stage to help keep the excitement flowing? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Before going on stage, I always get shit nervous \u2013 and it feels like all my teeth are about to fall out. But I think about the audience. I think about wanting to entertain them, and that I want to get as close to them as possible, so we can exchange energies. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Where did you experience your best audience?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The best audience was at Roskilde Festival in Denmark, this summer \u2013 my first full-set concert ever. It was a mind-blowing experience with a dedicated and jumping crowd. They were so many. I felt small. And l felt loved beyond what my brain could grasp. <\/p>\n<p><strong>What made you decide to become a rapper?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I love the challenge. And I love the aggression. And I had a drawer full of poetry that no one cared to read. So I figured, why not add beats and invite people to listen instead.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Your music is almost a new form genre of dirty urban pop, what would you describe it as?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I think \u2018dirty urban grime-pop\u2019 is the perfect description. <\/p>\n<p><strong>What artists did you grow up listening to?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I didn\u2019t listen to music growing up. Seldomly my mom would put on Vietnamese love songs about miserable soldiers at war. Back then I was a pretty paranoid kid alone in a big house, so I had to keep it silent to hear if a burglar came.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is your motto?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Aspire to those smarter than you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I read on a blog that you illegally performed in China, because you were banned at the last minute by local authorities. What happened? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I was invited to do a show at a festival in Beijing, but a few days before leaving, I was told that most of my material got declined by the Ministry of Culture in China. The festival didn\u2019t want me due to the censorship, but the team and I decided to go anyway and performed our show at smaller venues. <\/p>\n<p><strong>If you weren\u2019t doing music, where do you think you would be now?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Probably at home fantasizing about doing music.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Since a lot of your music is upbeat, so do you prefer going out to party or staying in with a cup of tea?<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>All my shows come with a party. So, I obviously love partying. But I do cherish my evenings at home eating a filthy amount of home-cooked food\u2026 A showgirl\u2019s got to recuperate too, you know.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What do you have coming up next? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>My debut album will be out early next year. And hopefully, I\u2019ll get to do a lot of touring around the world in 2013.<\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"http:\/\/facebook.com\/linkoban\">facebook.com\/linkoban<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Words: Tracy Kiryango<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;ve been super into part-Danish, part-Chinese rap star Linkoban ever since we saw her demented, Japanese horror-inspired video for Super Into On It, and now we&#8217;ve got the UK premiere of her new video, One Trick Pony.
