I won’t bullsh*t you, this is my favourite episode of season 3. DC-based artist/producer Bartees Strange made me feel seen with his debut album, Live Forever, an album that continuously asks “why not?” Why can't a black dude not love 50 Cent as much as he loves Bat For Lashes? In a lot of ways, this is the most vulnerable I’ve ever been on a podcast, largely due to how much Bartees and I were able to relate despite leading completely different lives. Together we delve into the complexities of being a black dude in America, along with geeking out about the music that we love and why eclectic is such a beautiful word. Like James Vincent McMorrow said back in season 1 “fuck these boxes”
