This is the full conversation.

Independent hip-hop artist Julian Argo sits down with WorldWide Entertainment TV for a wide-ranging conversation on music, independence, politics, and the future of the culture.

In this full interview, Julian explains how he unexpectedly filmed “Skin Freestyle” during an ICE protest, why he believes we may be living in the “last little bit of freedoms,” and what independence really looks like in 2026.

We also discuss:

• Direct-to-consumer vs streaming
• The “1,000 true fans” rule
• Whether gatekeepers still matter
• AI in music — helpful tool or dangerous territory?
• Why hip-hop no longer needs to prove legitimacy
• Tupac’s All Eyez On Me entering the Grammy Hall of Fame
• The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame debate
• Black History Month and hip-hop’s roots

Julian also opens up about vulnerability in his music, his influences (Public Enemy, LL Cool J, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, The Score), and what legacy means to him.
