This one’s special. I’m tapped in with one of the coldest pens in the game, CyHi the Prynce. Grammy-nominated, critically acclaimed, and a lyrical giant who’s contributed to some of the most iconic albums in hip hop.
We chop it up about his upcoming masterpiece, “The Story of Mr. EGOT”—a genre-bending, four-part album inspired by his dream of winning an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony. We talk creativity, the politics of the music business, and what it means to be a writer who’s still waiting on the flowers he deserves.
This convo is packed with gems. From BET freestyle stories and Watch the Throne sessions with Jay and Ye, to what AI means for the future of music and how to really make a living in the game without losing yourself in the streets. CyHi kept it 💯 from start to finish.
Tap in now—don’t miss this one.
