Hip-hop artist and producer Bishop Nehru spoke with Far Out following the release of his recent LP “Nehruvia: My Disregarded Thoughts.”
Bishop’s interview with Far Out explores his creative and career goals, his artistic influences, and his confidence in the sound he’s developed, remarking: ““That’s why I’m confident doing as many sounds as I do. I listen to my own energy; I know that shit sounds good! I don’t want to be content with where I’m at. I want to be moving constantly. There’s a whole different world where I wanna take the music. I know my end goal and I know I’ll get there.”
Speaking about his musical ambitions, he added: “Like I said, I want to be the best as well. If you’re not trying to be the best at what you do, then why do it? Michael Jordan felt the same way about playing basketball, he wanted to be better than Will Chamberlain, Kobe Bryant wanted to be better than Michael Jordan. It’s just what it is. You’re supposed to aim for whoever’s at the top, try and be better than them.”

“My sound is not defined. You can’t say ‘This is Bishop’s sound.’ I feel people don’t like that I can do so many different things. Some people tell me I need to put out more bangers, others say they want the lyrical music and I’m like, I don’t know. I may put out a project that’s just one or the other, but I’m never gonna stop expanding.”
