Description

Hip-hop icon Colin Wolfe delivers casual, humble, and unassuming vocals in this interview episode of #SDnR. His down-to-earth manner is both refreshing and surprising, especially considering he’s worked with some of the biggest names in music—Madonna, Michael Jackson, Tupac, and Dr. Dre, just to name a few. Being a major contributor to The Chronic alone earns him lifelong bragging rights, but Colin didn’t stop there.

Within the first five minutes of the interview, it becomes clear that we’re speaking with someone who has been instrumental on the ground floor of a cultural shift in music. Wolfe’s fascinating stories and anecdotes place him right in the middle of a musical gumbo, shoulder-to-shoulder with some of the industry’s greatest talents. You can genuinely feel how deeply respected he is among these legends.

Colin Wolfe has become a hip-hop legend in his own right, even though he’s well-versed in a wide range of musical styles and genres. It’s that musical diversity that strengthened his artistry and helped shape his genius as one of hip-hop’s greatest composers. This multifaceted musician—producer, composer, and songwriter—has plenty to say about his industry, which honestly made me wonder if a Colin Wolfe TED Talk should be next.
