Israel Idonije interview with Gowhere Hip Hop

In quite possibly the first ever tongue twister involving words that start with ‘I’, it’s the Israel Idonije interview with Gowhere Hip Hop. I had the pleasure of talking with the humble Chicago Bears defensive lineman at the Enclave red carpet the other night. We first discussed the charitable contributions of Dwyane Wade’s World Foundation before proceeding to discuss Israel Idonije’s own foundation: the… wait for it… Israel Idonije Foundation. In all seriousness, Israel Idonije’s foundation assists families around Chicago and globally who have suffered from the decline in the economy. With school already in session, Idonije details some plans his foundation has to get involved with the Chicagoland schools.

Of course, we also had to ask about the pigskin as Israel talks about what he has been doing individually to improve and help fill the void created by the departure of Alex Brown. And finally, we wrapped up on a fun question where Israel shares what artist he listens to to pump himself up before a game. Hint: He was the first black artist to have his video air on MTV. I’m sure then that Idonije will have a little “Jam” session before tonight’s preseason home opener as DA BEARS host the Oakland Raiders tonight at 7:30. No pre-game moonwalking though, it seems. Enjoy!
