My guest this week is Brooklyn-based rapper AKAI SOLO. We talked about childhood trips to Barnes & Noble that turned into trips to the theater, our mutual appreciation for the movie Drive, how a soundtrack can change your opinion of a movie, rappers who rap really well about one subject, the similarities between Black Dynamite and Deadpool, and the creative process behind his latest album True Sky, produced entirely by Navy Blue.

True Sky is available everywhere music is sold, streamed, or stolen. Consider buying directly from AKAI via Bandcamp
