Remarkable!

He amazes me with every bar… well I don’t consider myself a true fan of hip-hop. This makes me want to go back and listen to his boundless work.

Wow

From the onset, it captivates with a terrific tone that strikes the perfect balance between insight and warmth. It's humbling to hear the gratitude and mindset of someone so accomplished, making it an exceptionally motivating listen. The anecdotes and lessons shared evoke an overwhelming sense of appreciation, not just for the craft but for the journey and the person behind it. This is a must-listen… but even beyond that, it's a narrative that resonates with anyone aiming to better their introspective skills and understand the power of words and stories. Highly recommended!
