Customer Reviews
Insightful
I just love the mix of the minds and fantastic banter. The conversations are smart and poignant. The music is FIRE 🔥. Sometimes it’s hard to understand Mos Def. I think it’s because he is so passionate. I’m a proud member of the podcast.
Great show
Enjoy the music, the flow, and the conversations. Hope there will be more episodes and longer! 😎
