[@devanteporter6981]

this nigga is so smart and politically conscious and aware of the world around big ups to him hes a genius

[@JCLmusicsiteLV]

When he was like, "There's gonna be a day when somebody says my name for the last time..." BOY, THAT GOT ME!

[@Chargers9999]

yeh ikkkkkkk

[@Eros-xz7sm]

JCLmusic fr that shit really hit me like damn....

[@moonlightkarma9838]

I give him props for what he said about crying, nicki minaj, and his passion for film.

[@jjkk9747]

Moonlight Karma stfu

[@jordanarellano455]

Logic is my dude! He makes some bomb ass music, is a fan of film, nerd with games & anime. I'd love to kick it with this dude, he's so positive and just a true ass dude.

[@TheYunqGamer]

I got to meet him to take a picture for VIP at his concert, It was for a quick second as the picture taking was going by fast. Such an amazing dude and I've been a huge huge fan of his for over two years now, I would love to just have a conversation with him to talk about whatever man, such a cool dude and a role model for me, i'm 15 btw and I look up to him through his music

[@alet1490]

[@Syntember]

fuck outta here with your pessimistic ass, let him talk about his artist lmao

[@antdog775]

[@THEKINGTONY]

logic is the type of guy who can keep the interview going without you asking too much question lol

[@toomuchinfo1989]

When logic talked about crying to things that make you emotional I was thinking of "welcome to forever" by logic

[@re7anthealchemist595]

the intro to under pressure always gets me

[@ScorpnXL26]

Fr people say logic is corny because he didn't conform to the mainstream like every other underground artist when they get big. Like G-Eazy. Nobody calls his ass corny because he started rapping about the fame and shit. Logic is only considered corny because he's still the same person.

[@krazyangulo]

g eazy is good af. his new album is deep. he talks about the ego and how he got so full of him self and realized so much when he became famous.

[@ScorpnXL26]

+Luis Angulo boy the only reason you say that is because me, myself, and I. His album sounds like a generic piece boasting about himself. He explains the album in an interview but the explanation isn't the album at all.

[@krazyangulo]

+Nzime im guessing you havent heard sad boy? and the songs that he talks about wanting things and wanting that life is him being reall about how he used to see the life. i will admit theres some songs that give it a bit of a mainstream feel but if you think about it being in his perspective of life you gotta really realize what goes throught their minds. were all humans and he trys his best to be creative and i totally see him being himself in his music, spilling out his feelings and trying but living in his footsteps all you get is criticized. he's a little bigger than logic. so when logic gets on that level its gunna get harder for him to be himself in his music. thats why logic trys his best to stay away from all the bs . you gotta really see where these artists are coming from. naw i havent seen g eazys interview ill look into that though.

[@ScorpnXL26]

+Luis Angulo pretty sure logic is at the same level. I'm not a huge fan of either but logic was up there before G was. G just has the mainstream fan base because he switched to that sound. All these white girls swarmed after these things happen and he blew up. Logic did over 100k sales first week. Pretty sure he's on that level just without the followers on his social media.

[@krazyangulo]

+Nzime yea i think G got up their quicker cause of features too.

[@joelcamacho1420]

I need logics mentality

[@krazyangulo]

everyone does

[@souncivilized8577]

develop your own With his influence.

[@samsworld1770]

Understand he's psychology who is about being oppened and ready to anyone for anyone and just...be yourself that's exactly what he said in some of he's music and interviews and you know what, i tried he's psychology and it works ! Right now i'm as positive as him all day everyday even in the shitty/bad moments ! Try it you won't regret it ! :) ;)

[@jakerose7288]

Joel Camacho personal development bro

[@jt-ru8yb]

if your human, you have it already- look at things from a "down to earth" "honest with yourself" point of view.

[@maleriemaxine4974]

logic is so fucking cool, he's smart, makes some bomb ass music, he's kinda nerdy too...like my ideal man right here damn

[@MLGadizzle]

Really incredible interview, logic always takes a great approach to everything.

[@realdreamerschangetheworld7470]

The Incredible True Interview

[@fox114624]

Logic is the realist most down to earth rapper.

[@VigilantCitizenChannel]

Logic, one of my favourite artists out now

[@juliacameron6657]

I could listen to him talk all day

[@TASHKAY]

Yo im rewatching these interviews for like the 20th time and still enjoy them a lot! Its like a Logic in your pocket you can always refer to when you need some advice on life and shit. Just as the albums! I can listen to all of his mixtapes and albums multiple times a day and not get bored by them

[@hardknocktv]

🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@18AnthonyC]

He really is a physical embodiment of someone just living without the care of others. I aspire to share his mindset

[@daisybelle2336]

The problem is that he does care. I feel like he tries to hard to act like he doesn’t - he contradicts himself in SO many interviews! It’s actually frustrating. I do like him a lot, he just goes on super manic seeming rants where he’s ALL over the place. It just does not age well, to be so grandiose or overly excited to proclaim a certain belief. Then, contradict yourself. A LOT.

[@griffindempster4983]

this might be my favorite interview

[@Snowzeyy]

absolutely

[@isharize]

Yep

[@gxulet]

T.I.T.S is dope, but i hope to see Young Sinatra back!! #BringBackYoungSinatra

[@EmeraldaKasim]

He said he's done with Young Sinatra. But imagine a Young Sinatra IV

[@gxulet]

Fox 20XX M8 Yeah I know, I watched the interview. But I really hope he brings it back! He could make a Young Sinatra EP or something like that. it'll be dope :)

[@whoismanny]

+Fox 20XX M8 what interview does he say that in? I want to watch it.

[@EmeraldaKasim]

+Manny Medina He said it in his Reddit AMA.

[@EmeraldaKasim]

+Manny Medina That's where I saw him say it but he's said it on other occasions

[@_MartinDahlin]

Fade Away is my jam!

[@RbZ_tcg]

I respect Logic in All ways for how passionate of a human being he is! An amazing emcee an artist, don't know him personally, but just from his music and interviews I've heard an watched over the years, his message is Always inspiring! I'm 23 going on 24, Em has been my favorite artist since I was a little kid. Its weird how much I can relate to Logic, knowing I felt the same way as a kid growing up All the way til now, still feeling the same way about Em. An having that same feeling about Logic and the message he's spreading. Not saying Em and Logics messages as artists are the same. I'm just saying I Love everything Em does. All his talents that he let's us have the opportunity to enjoy. An it's like that for the homie Logic too!! Much love man, keep doing Exactly what you're doing! Peace, Love, & Positivity!

[@Smokeyy777]

give this man a million dollar budget for a film and i guarantee it will be a classic, probably win an oscar too. Period.

[@Creddz69]

a million isn't very much at all for a movie

[@Smokeyy777]

doesnt need alot of money to be great

[@trent132]

indigo_child go educate yourself please, it would be the shittiest movie ever

[@rokch1ck]

Creddz Christopher Nolan first movie was done with 7000 dollars. Napoleon dynamite was half a mil. You don't need a lot of money to achieve greatness. you need an imagination, work ethic and a team that is on the same page

[@SpeedyyFXofficial]

indigo_child a million is pretty small for a movie dude

[@JJ.Picasso]

Logic still amazes me with his entendre and his punchlines over all his word play is top tier i always find something new

[@ListenJus]

what he spit in the beginning was dope as fuck

[@plumpyninja9397]

thats Fade Away for ya.

[@fetavlogs100]

"I believe everyone's name is gonna fade, eventually. No matter what you do man. Look at Steve jobs, my man changed the world. Bill gates, these people fuckin changed the world. Like THE WORLD, computers and everything. Their names will be forgotten man, you know what I mean? I know it's debatable but I believe it, you know, like who really Invented the light bulb? I'm just accepting the fact that one day it's gonna be the last time someone says my name. Or the last book with my name on the page and it's gonna get burned down or something. So no matter what I do for this world, and I do everything for it, I'm making sure I do something for me, before I die. That's all, give and help others throughout your life, but make sure you do something for yourself. Something for you." Man logic is so well spoken, I aspire to have a perspective like him one day. This KZbin channel is gonna be what I do for myself.

[@muempire]

Ugh can't wait to see him preform!

[@likenem]

That's kind of one think I don't like about YMCB, Drake Nikki and Wayne are lyrical but rarely do you hear a song like Georgia Bush. I'm glad Logic is finding success with out having to be commercial.

[@LuisMontoyawfgwsb]

I can totally relate to your Twitter story! Thanks for the inspiration and for reminding me of my mission in life! Keep up the great work!

[@MrEmmanuel678]

That's why I love Logic, I go to different places with this new album. It's amazing.

[@DailYxDosE]

1:34 LMFAO shits too funny when he says "goddamn" and flicks his wrist. His face too xD

[@ChildOfLegend007BOPBOP]

yo why the fuck is he so underrated there isn't a lot of artist out here not begging them selves and the only ones i can think of at the moment that i can relate to and learn something from is Logic and Kanye like im soo happy for this guy that his fame keeps getting bigger each day

[@thefirst512]

he isng underrated anymore

[@felicianosegundojr.4062]

I was worried this would be the last part until I saw the end card. I could watch like four more parts of this interview

[@danp1471]

Wow, never knew his game plan was to get into acting. He's an amazing lyricist which is why I'm surprised that it wasn't even what he's trying to leave his mark as. Good luck with your future endeavors I hope to see you on the big screen sometime, but please don't stop making music man, you are too good with it not to.

[@imVampy]

Deserves way more recognition.

[@__unmastered]

#LogicForPresident.

[@TheScottGillies]

I was just practicing some songs and verses, and right before I came here, I was going through "Lord Willin'" and "Fade Away" for the first time in a minute and just ridiculously KILLING IT on my ability to flow like never before! So needless to say, when this video started, I found myself rapping along with, "Tell me what I wouldn't wanna give for a life like this. Fuck around wanna fight like this. Take a hike like this. So I might just -- might just..."

[@TheScottGillies]

It's only a million years later that I'm seeing this for the first time! lol

[@Larolex3]

Man his philosophy on life is so beautiful

[@dummyboy5708]

shout out to hardknocktv

[@f8c3themusic]

I'm a fan of Logic. I have both of his albums and the Sinatra mixtape on my iPhone. Just cracks me up when he says things he does and what other people do/did is "totally different" lol. Like the Deltron thing with his latest album or his comparisons to Kendrick, Cole, and Drake. It's obvious lol. But that's okay...accept that and make it better. Writers, actors, artists (especially actual painters etc) take clear inspiration from others but make it better and make it their own. But they don't deny their influence and direction that they received from others. It's not shameful to admit that. Logic should.

[@kaizenFPS]

Did you even listen to the interview? He said he heard it after the script and concept was already written. And in almost every interview he does where people bring up influences he doesn't deny any of that. Clearly not a true fan my dude.

[@grant-nagy]

+r0mediddy He says that he hadn't even heard the Deltron thing until after the script was written, in this video you commented on. And if you watch his latest interview with Charlamagne he says that he was inspired by Kanye and others and he says exactly what you said that he isn't afraid to deny their influence and isn't afraid to be inspired by it. Almost word to word to what you said he doesn't do. Should check it out, maybe it'll change your mind.

[@f8c3themusic]

+Scobafy Yes I heard that part. But once they acknowledged it, he said it was "totally different" when it's not. Again, nothing wrong with emulating a style or project. Logic is dope in his own right.

[@f8c3themusic]

+Deviate I got ya. But specifically, the Drake, Kendrick, and Cole references. He kind of glossed over it when Char for example said that he basically sounded like Kendrick. When in fact that's the truth. Again, I'm definitely a fan. But it's like if Jay-Z were to say he was influenced by Jaz-O but is "totally different". Back then, he was almost a carbon copy of him until after Reasonable Doubt when he slowed his flow down etc.

[@BrOwNiE0307]

+r0mediddy the only thing that matters is that the music is good and the message is GOLDEN ! Let's just enjoy music maaaaan :F

[@RbZ_tcg]

The show in Royal Oak Michigan the other day was dope as fuck!! Dizzy killed it his set. Your set was insane though, interacting with the crowd like you do, an how you talk to everybody, an your 100% yourself at all times, just makes it that much doper!! Can't wait til next time!! Go to the Fillmore in the D or St. Andrews Hall lol that'd be dope!!!

[@chrisperez1548]

That made me tear for a second

[@aaron815]

got me up in the feels out here with fade away damn so true

[@enriquecarrizoza3000]

I appreciate his music way more after watching this

[@derronyu]

Favorite interview ever.

[@johnshow92]

dude is too real for most people man. what you see is what get with logic.

[@claudiamolina690]

Interstellar was a good movie, i cry everytime 😢

[@kenderick100]

interstellar was great movie and I see why that movie inspire him to write this album. the concept of space.

[@neonconfection]

Thing is, Logic's intelligence and casual use of logic in his way of thinking shouldn't be impressive. This is the level I wish everyone was on already ffs. Props to him for setting a good example cause lord knows we need it. This is why I wanna support this dude.

[@mangoexpress8523]

Bruh I actually enjoy watching this guy lol

[@ThaFamzz]

[@ohhjayyee7093]

idk why but I cried when he was talking about one day his name will fade away 😭

[@fabo36]

I have such a strong love for film that if I was forced to get rid of music or film forever I'd pick music....yep.

[@albertorodriguez2750]

I like this guy. I put my boy on to T.I.T.S. and he liked. Keep it up Logic.

[@SteelersLakersFan]

The album was alright but Under Pressure and the Welcome to Forever mixtape were much much better. Hope his next project is better. I'll still be at that D.C show tho. #DMV

[@danameslb]

Agree. Hes the fam thoo

[@MBHSimRacing]

+SteelersLakersFan Under Pressure was a masterpiece though, will be pretty hard to beat it

[@ItsZenith]

His thoughts on Charlemagne have clearly changed since this interview haha

[@Beingtherain]

Goat

[@Flipper35]

What about part 5 though Nick?

[@krazyangulo]

everyone just listens to what he sounds like and never pay attention to his words or his place in life. he's trying to tell his point of view of life unlike every other rapper just trying to be cool and sound dope and you know say stuff that doesnt make people connect with music, all they do is use a good flow and good beats. but there is really no meaning to their lyrics. logic has so much meaning which is what a real artist would do.

[@thefirst512]

A bit weird to watch this after watching Charlemagne give logic donkey of the day over his clickbait song. In other words Charlemagne was being a bitch about logic calling him out in a song. I never watched his actual interview with the breakfast club so I guess now is as good of a time as any.

It's officially a goal of mine to hang out with Logic one day.

[@Domino762]

Logic looks like he's 15 years older than he actually is.

[@itsblanko]

Really? I thought the opposite when I found out his age, I always thought he was younger. The weird thing is that I have been listening to him for years and I never expected for him to be the age he is xD

[@Natedawg713]

lmao paint ... swim

[@MrHawkman102]

Look how tired he looks

[@TheUnderratedOrange]

Mrhawkman102 He is human, after all.

[@Don7star]

He's exceedingly corny, but he's a very good rapper.

[@Folukaka]

can you give me an example? not hating btw

[@DeluxeTubing]

+Manny Because he's not your typical rapper? I'd figure.

[@EmeraldaKasim]

What do you think is corny about him? His personality? Just curious

[@BeyondEntertainment_]

+Manny He's just a nice guy. How's that corny? Better than fronting like you're the shit or tough.

[@hitdoctor24]

+Manny Logic once said we live in a world where peace love and positivity are considered corny. It's sad but it's true and that's pretty much what your comment proves.
