On this episode of Hye Jams: Between the Notes, Paisan Kapitan welcomes Armenian hip-hop heavyweight Big E Mastermindz and international singer/guitarist Hicham Touhami for one of the most entertaining and unpredictable episodes yet.

Big E opens up about his unbelievable 130+ pound transformation, working alongside Krayzie Bone from Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, the evolution of Armenian hip-hop, and the new music he’s preparing to unleash. From street anthems to real-life struggles, Big E keeps it raw, honest, and inspiring.

Then things go international when Morocco’s own Hicham Touhami joins the show with his incredible multilingual sound, blending Arabic, Spanish, English, French, and Armenian influences into one unforgettable performance. What starts as a casual interview quickly turns into a spontaneous live jam session that completely takes over the studio.

And yes… Paisan finally learns how to make fresh Armenian GATA at Grandridge Market — proving once and for all that “GATA” is actually short for “GATA HAVIT.”
