The Song:

Oxnard, CA native and frequent Madlib collaborator Dudley Perkins is back again with an hour-long documentary, Interplanetary Peace Talks 2012 A.U., detailing his career, the man behind the music, spirituality and much more.

Produced by Xylophone Films, during the documentary Dudley explains the confusion behind his Declaime moniker, and how his real name, Dudley Perkins, actually became his alter ego. "The name Declaime stuck to the point where a lot of people thought that was my real name," explains Dudley. "So when I told them my name was Dudley they thought I was playing a joke on them, so it turns out Dudley Perkins became the alter ego!"

But it wasn't always the case that his name was well known or known at all; it took tremendous faith in what seemed to be a never-ending struggle to succeed, and dedication was of the utmost importance. "We figured we'd just grind it out, we'd do the music," says Dudley of him and his crew. "Some of us had jobs every once in a while, but we couldn't think straight when we were doing a 9 to 5. We'd end up cutting our finger or something in the conveyor belt, trying to work a 9 to 5 with music and lyrics going through our heads all day."

Complete with tons of video footage from Dudley Perkins recording in the studio, performing at live shows, and even cooking his secret family recipe, Spaghetti a La Dudley, Interplanetary Peace Talks 2012 A.U. shines a light on the uniqueness of the man known as Dudley Perkins and gets inside the mind of an out of this world human being.

The Background:


In a world obsessed with immature desires a man in his rarest form must rise and stir against the tide of conformity. Heeding the call is Declaime, an incredible artist talent hailing from Oxnard, California. The visionary poet first amazed his family with his musical aptitude at age two, and with no father figure in sight, started a lifelong fascination with superheroes at an early age. Experiences with gang life left Declaime disillusioned, and he emerged a transformed man ready to begin a mission of enlightenment through the power of sound. The producer/emcee/visual artist began his journey on a track with Tha Alkaholiks, and he went on to work on with Lootpack, Oh No and KanKick to name a few. Declaime has been prolific in bringing metaphysical hip-hop into being for the masses, previously releasing Illmindmusik, Andsoitissaid, Mad Men On Arrival, A Lil' Light, Conversations With Dudley, The Dank And Jammy Show, Expressions 2012 A. U., Beautiful Minds, The Message Uni Versa, Holy Smokes, and SomeOthaShip. His latest album FONK is available now via Declaime's own label imprint SomeOthaShip Connect.
