Talib Kweli is joined by trilingual MC, songwriter, rapper, and Javotti Media signee Niko Is who talks about growing up in Orlando, and takes us behind the scenes of the Florida hip-hop scene. The Chillest Rapper In Showbiz also breaks down the process of tightening up his bars by rapping in the streets of LA, and talks about the importance of travel on artistry, as well as the massive influence Tupac has had on him.

Later in the episode, Niko Is and Kweli discuss some of the rappers' greatest collaborations, including their recent "Live From The Blue Note." If you like bars that make you laugh as much as they make you think, you’re not going to want to skip this interview.
