I talked to J Prince about his relationship with Drake, leaving the streets, rap beef, and almost signing Tupac

I recently started a podcast called “Not Another Industry Podcast” as an excuse to talk to inspiring people around the industry. But years ago, I started a different podcast that I didn’t really put out or promote. This conversation with J Prince is from that podcast

If you want to listen to just the J Prince interview (and skip me explaining the context and what was going on around the time of the interview, like Pusha T’s media tour after the Drake diss records), you can skip to about the middle.

Although this interview is from a while back, there are a lot of things that are relevant to today, like the connection between music and the streets, etc. Also, it’s kind of eerie because I ask some questions about staying safe when you’re in shady places, and my question and his response are so similar to the exact situation that would eventually happen with Takeoff.

I’m about six weeks into this new podcast, and would love it if you rated / subscribed etc. on Apple and Spotify btw.
