I was interviewed for Jack Silverstein's "People With Passion" series →

kingdrake1:

We talked for quite awhile so there’s some stuff that didn’t make the final transcript which is cool, I think our conversation tended to be very footnotes on footnotes of footnotes if I remember right, just going off on tangents on occasion, so he did a good job of bringing this stuff together. Of course, shouts to Jordan Sargent who did the piece on Gucci with me—I shouted out him & a few other writers in a part that didn’t make the final cut.

Also, should probably mention that I think the field is considerably more competitive now for rap writers than it was when I first starting blogging or even when I first started getting published in Pitchfork. So some of what I say about it being an open lane is less true today.

Mad respect for this.
