Alexander Mack: Retro Flair, Modern Flow, Timeless Soul** Alexander Mack joins the Randy Wilson Podcast for his first ever long form interview, and the timing could not be better. Born in Blackstone, Virginia and sharpened in Richmond, Alex is one of the most unique voices rising out of the state, blending retro soul, smooth rap, jazz influence and modern rhythm in a way that feels both nostalgic and brand new. In this conversation Alex opens up about his creative journey, from post graduation struggle and self taught production to festival stages, On The Radar, the success of Cucumber Cool and the new full length album he is preparing to release. He talks about how jazz and gospel shaped his musical DNA, how he separates himself from his influences and what it really means to be a Young Man of High Value. We dive into craft, work ethic, Virginia culture and the mindset it takes to build a sound that is soulful, stylish and forward pushing. Alex shares the stories behind his growth, his vision and the discipline that has carried him from Blackstone to the forefront of the new Virginia wave. If you care about music, artistry and the evolution of Virginia culture, this is a conversation you do not want to miss.
