We talked with painter, muralist, hip hop artist, and alchemist Cedric Umoja about honest conversations, his three-artist household, and the difference between a condo and a community.

And a bonus segment with an Artists U tool: artist mission statements.

This podcast is supported by the South Carolina Arts Commission. Special thanks for 701 Center for Contemporary Art and Artists U.

Music by Sheldon Wright and Jamil Byrom.
