Feel like I should thank Chris for sharing (cuts that you love, but would NEVER be singles, had me yelling, lol) and it just felt so good about them all raising awareness on mental health, as well. That commonality, that honesty really set a warm tone, for some reason. This interview as well as the one with RZA just really, really stuck to the ribs! The way that they described experiencing a WHOLE project by an artist made me commit to dusting off some old CDs and just letting them ride out. I imagine myself speeding down Harlem River Drive at a dangerous speed for a less skilled driver while listening to Slick Rick's "Mona Lisa." The only woman I should've tried to kick it to and try to wife up was from NYC...
