A Conversation with Mavi | Music, Morality, Learning, Pain, Love.

[@Volksgeist]

Thank you Mavi for sitting and talking with me. One of the greatest pieces of content I've ever put out, I hope.

[@twentymonologues]

no doubt

[@Tsutsu5]

Easily, is there a longer version of this interview?

[@DatDaDatty]

Mavi is the future

[@Risu_Raps]

You are so fucking based.

[@CJBSwelloh]

“Only people who have no intimate relationship with violence embrace it as casually as they do” this man is a poet

[@stompingrabbit]

I remember hearing Let The Sun Talk for the first time and automatically being blown away by it - can't wait to see this!

[@CalhanPthalo]

Just met MAVI after his show in Detroit, he made sure to hang back after performing and stay and talk to all the fans. Much respect for his craft and artistry, dude is very humble and a huge inspiration

[@jacobw7360]

Dude is so intelligent and well reflected. Every insight about the underlying systems of value in the rap game and society as a whole were so well elaborated and articulated.

[@eeryskies]

as a fan of both your work and mavi, this is so dope. keep killing it bro!

[@Volksgeist]

Thank YOU! Always an inspiration with your work

[@swnk.]

wow as a fan of all 3 of your guys' work i just wanna say you are all some of my biggest inspirations musically and visually, much love

[@treezmatt]

IM THANKFUK TO BE ALIVE DURING THESE TIMES WHEREUNDERGROUND RAP IS RIGHT NOW. POETS LIKE MAVI, EARL, MIKE, MEDHANE, NAVY BLUE, LOJI, MAXO, AND EVEN DA$H STILL DOING IT. MUCH LOVE TO THEM.

[@VP02496]

Yo thats all fucking facts tho. Dont forget sideshow

[@treezmatt]

@@VP02496 CANT FORGE SIDESHOW AND BILLY WOODS

[@MichaelClemons00]

Started listening to Earl, which introduced me to Maxo, than to Mavi, and finally Navy Blue. Swear these 4 artists have their own genre of hip-hop/rap. Very therapeutic music and helps me through tough times. TLDR: Mavi is next up to the throne

[@shivambhatt7503]

so heartbroken to hear he lost his child. Forever hoping for your peace ❤

[@appelsap8219]

just listened to MAVI for the first time a couple days ago, i must say im very excited to see this in my recommended

[@khadimthiam9890]

Amazingly insightful conversation, especially the dive into black death voyeurism within hip hop media culture. Already highly regarded Mavi’s artistry but to know how well structured and culturally/socially aware he is makes me rate him even more. Eager to see him live in Paris in a few days :)

[@HatttTrick3x]

Heard about Mavi from BruceDropEmoff , heard my hood ghosts and it gave me crazy chills , which I rarely ever get. Mavi is him fr

[@FACES918]

I’ve been listening to, talking to, and watching Mavi since about 2017. He was super young at the time. I know only because I was too, if I’m not mistaken he’s 23 now and I’m 20, so I was about 15 at the time when I first heard let the sun talk. Last i seen and spoke to him was back in February(22nd) In Chicago after a free concert he did with Zeloopers. He’s a great guy, even remembered me from the last show (2 months ago). Don’t sleep on Mavi he’s blowing up and only getting smarter, and if you really take a moment to listen to his music you’ll see it’s virtually impossible to hate🤝🏽💯

[@blacklakex9394]

What a great conversation! Mavi really had something to say and seems to be a very clever, compassionate and humble human being. Thanks to both of you❤

[@daniel_nunezc]

mavi is a poet, i hope he gets to taht big stage

[@ByDobson]

Been watching since like 2017 and I think this is my favourite thing you've put out being a HUGE Mavi fan, it was structured perfectly, great questions asked, and Mavi seems like a really down to earth guy

[@Volksgeist]

Thank you!!

[@AceQ777]

MAVI is a poet, let the sun talk is therapeutic and I hope he knows that his words are beautiful and meaningful and will live long

[@Fridgesock]

He sounds so smart and aware, wise beyond his years for sure.

[@Whodnl]

I love Mavi and love Volksgeist so this is definitely a match made in heaven

[@scorpichella]

Very knowledgable, articulate and talented. Happy to see what’s next for Mavi.

[@paulmerino7734]

Not even halfway through and this is awesome. Few things in life are more satisfying than a simple conversation between two Smart and Open people. I knew Mavi had a complicated inner self from his lyrics but damn, he can also convey complex ideas from the dome. Super cool shit

[@bigcheese2128]

I needed this fucking interview. Both in concept and in substance this is brilliant

[@logoknight]

The spectrum of emotions his music sends me through. Much love.

[@KeeksRL]

Mavi just gets it man.

[@rexnwerem1494]

amazing interview, Mavi is a deeper soul than i could even imagine. The community needs more minds like his

[@oscarruiz455]

i loved laughing so hard it hurts. top 5 albums of the year in my opinion

[@sebastiananderson4535]
