My guest this week is New Jersey rapper/producer/vocalist/director Topaz Jones, a fellow native of Montclair, NJ. We talked about being from the 973, what movies he’s been watching during quarantine, being inspired by Kanye West’s ‘Runaway’ movie, finding the courage to be vulnerable on record, how sampling music has inspired his approach to filmmaking, and the creative process behind his latest album Don’t Go Tellin Your Momma and its accompanying Sundance Award-winning short film of the same name.
