Nardwuar vs. Steve Lacy

[@sepiaknight47]

Every Nardwuar interview that starts with a really guarded guest who slowly gets surprised and gets their walls broken down is my favorite. The moment where Steve goes from being cool to being impressed, he starts opening up a little more and being a little more honest... Nard is life!

I mean...he HAS to be aware of Nardwuar and his most famous quote.

Following this, Lacy was featured alongside Frank Ocean on the song "911 / Mr. Lonely" by Tyler, the Creator; and co-wrote songs for artists such as Solange Knowles, Chloe x Halle, and Kendrick Lamar, the latter of whom he worked with on the song "Pride".
