    On June 8, 2023, IDEA GENERATION and Tres Generaciones Tequila hosted a listening party with Grammy award-winning rapper Killer Mike in celebration of his latest album, 'Michael.'
    Killer Mike and IDEA GENERATION Founder Noah Callahan-Bever sat down together in Atlanta in front of a live audience to listen to the album, discuss Mike's career, and hear stories about how the legendary rapper constantly persevered throughout his entire career. The room was packed with fans sipping on Tres Generaciones Tequila, and the after party was popping as Mike once again performed records from the album.
    Special thanks to our partners at Tres Generaciones for bringing this experience to life. More about Tres: www.tresgenera...

    I can't overstate what a pleasure it was talking to Killer Mike. Beyond being an absolute beast behind the mic, dude is such a dynamic thinker and his heterodox approach to music, politics and life is both refreshing and challenging. No sounds or ideas go untested, and whether you love his work, or agree with his beliefs, you have to respect the coherence of his POV and his commitment to constant elevation.
    MICHAEL is easily my favorite album of 2023 (so far, of course) and it's inspiring to see a man of 48 years-old who continues to push himself to new depths of emotional candor, and his craft to new levels of technical innovation in the name of art, of greatness, and of personal growth.

    Man these type interviews are a blessing. The people other than artists they are. I definitely be downloading the album. Thank Yas for real. Communication is key. Some hear this and become a fan of this man, now if them same people heard Killer Mike, they don't even attempt...Even me as a fan for years just thought maybe the name come from the fact that he be killing the mic and his name Michael...yea... Perspective and the effort to attempt multiple before setting shit in stone...another 🗝️. bYOUtiful... Grateful always💜🙏🏽

    i was just thinking about if he has been compromised or not cause I love his message. and then he did a freudian slip instead of saying musicians he said magicians :)

    • @marcustrotter1858
      @marcustrotter1858 Год назад +1

      "freudian slip" is an interesting word choice. Especially when compared to "magician". The origins of those words translate very differently across cultures. The Universe always displays the Truth.

      @01MM23 Again no evidence or receipts. What income is he gaining and not putting a portion of it back into his community? Have you been to his business area and seen the growth? Better yet, what "Southern Hospitality" is it when one publicly speaks about his mother drug addiction, (responsible) 2nd amendment rights, econimic empowerment avenues, drug selling, adolescent sex and the potential of being a young parent with little to no tools be succeed? Yep and another one.

      To The People Commenting To This Particular Comment. I Met Killer Mike In Person About A Day Or The Night Or So Before STANKONIA Was Released Before The Whole World And Monster. AND HE WAS A REAL STRAIGHTFORWARD GENTLEMAN BUT NOT TO BE FKD WIT OR APPROACHED WITH THE BS He And A Few More Brothers From The Dungeon Treated Me Like A Grown Man And A Human Like They Had Knew Me For Years He Nor They Knew Me We Don't Know Each Other It Was A Brotherly Embrace And I Gained A Brother That Night Because Killer Mike Was A Real One. I Wish I Had'A Rhymed For Them That Night But I Didn't Want To Come Off As Being MisUnderstood
