  • @Mclarenboy100
    @Mclarenboy100 Год назад +27

    What makes Nardwuar such a GOOD interviewer & journalist is around 44:03, in the way he says "You're J Cole, we have to know" after the bomb of a revelation that J. Cole told Dre about Kendrick. Most of the time he says that line, it's in the context of being a fun interview, bringing up a random tidbit, and often playing coy to both hide his sources and get into his character.
    But THIS time, he says it with such honesty, sincerity, and *respect*. When Nardwuar _knows_ the topic will get serious or big, especially to the person being interviewed, Nardwuar let's the silence take in as his interviewee will need the time to think about the answer, and treats them with such sincerity so that they know they're in a safe space to answer. He does this too when he realized Doja Cat didn't know her dad produced music or when he gave Snoop a copy of his first film. It's still the goofball we love, but he knows its a big topic for the person they're interviewing.

    I don’t really know much about modern rap artists. For years, I’ve heard the name J Cole but I don’t think I’ve ever heard a song by him. That said, I have BIG, BIG respect for him based on this interview alone. Nowhere do you see an hour long interview with anyone and you rarely get insights into a person’s life the way he’s providing. It seems like he has all his shit together, pays homage to the past and gives of himself to the future. This interview sincerely amazing. It’s like watching Pippen and Jordan.

    Notice how Cole plugged multiple people & showed mad love to his Dreamville artist cuz he knows the power of dropping a name/brand during a interview. He’s the goat for so many reason.

    Man, Cole is such an awesome guy.
    I remember meeting him during a meet n greet on his "What Dreams May Come" tour!
    I was the ONLY person in line to give him something and not ask him to sign something.
    I gave him my mixtape btw. I'm jus happy that he said he'd check it out sometime on the tour bus.
    Whether he did or not, idk. Lol 🤷🏾‍♂️
    I'm jus glad to have the interaction wit him!
    Dope music, Chill dude.
    He's goated fr! 🐐 💯
