The Wale Interview

A good friend of mine recently started helping Wale out on the management side and he reached out immediately to get us together on the podcast. Wale was on a bit of a time crunch but he still came in hot and we launched into a conversation about the dangers of drugs

Wale low key one of the most under rated rappers of our time

[@jameergrooms1424]

kKnox DaGoat BIG KRIT as well

[@michaelcooke6267]

one of the most underrated rappers of ALL time

[@marshon918]

that’s not low key tho 💯

[@goodmorning25]

Wale isn’t underrated . His music gets to the people it’s for.

[@Vanditto]

The Gifted by Wale is still one of my favorite albums to date, he’s such an intelligent and inspirational individual. Thanks for this Adam, keep up the good work.

[@jason96]

I agree

[@beenjamminbuttons7771]

dude great record, I also loved the projects “About Nothing” more than just about any other pieces of music this decade. Wale is on his own level, his own plane, his own wave, and he has connected with me on a deeper level than almost any other artist. I understand why a lot of people don’t fuck with him and it’s simply because they do not have the mental capacity to understand his message and the way he presents it. I remember growing up, I’d be listening to one of his tracks on youtube and have a separate tab dedicated to googling words, phrases, and concepts he would touch on during a song that I wasn’t familiar with. he literally expanded my vocabulary, my views and my appreciation for music. I get it, certain people don’t want music like this. certain people wanna turn a song on and turn their brain off. just just because you don’t understand or relate to a certain song/artist/genre, doesn’t mean it’s bad, it just means it’s not for you. so don’t hate, just let it be and do you. Much Love to Wale, one of the top lyricist of our generation - thank you for all the music and memories

[@FBAAdvocater]

It's a toss up between Gifted and Album about Nothing. Those 2 are classics

[@xander5993]

Tell that to Anthony Fantano

[@beenjamminbuttons7771]

[@exzisd1]

Been hearing of Wale for a long time but not familiar with his work. What I can say is this was a real deep ass meaningful conversation. Aside from making me want to check out his music it made me gain a respect for the human known as Wale. THe intro part about addiction was especially powerful. As someone who has struggled with addictions my entire life that shit hit me hard. For anyone out there trying to get sober only you can make the decision to do so and know you aren't alone. I've been in AA since 2010 but I have other demons I am battling. Nicotine is the hardest to quit but its the least of my worries in terms of addictions. On the 2nd of October I will have 1 year...this time around. Addiction is a messed up disease. My blind homeless friend turned me on to this J Cole song called Friends. If you are battling addiction I highly recommend it. Never got real deep into Cole but that song hit me hard and brought me to tears when he was living in my car for a bit and showed me. Appreciate the hell out of this interview and would like to see more anti-drug content. Not judging anyone but these rappers and influencers can make a difference. Fuck lean, fuck xans, and fuck opiates. I got put on them all by my doctor when I was just 15 years old for some health issues and trauma. I wasn't asking for any of that stuff its what the doctor told me and at the time I had no idea what it was but I think it was one of the things that led down some dark ass streets and some of the hardest things in my life. Would have rather dealt with the pain of my surgeries than to have taken those pills the doctor told me to take but I didn't know what it was at the time. All the drugs are just a bandage for pain and end up numbing your emotions out. Starts fun but it will catch up with you sooner or later.

[@MichaelAngeloLives]

Album About Nothing will forever hold some serious memories for me. I don't really enjoy most of Wale's stuff after that, but he seems like a genuine dude.

[@BLVKKROSE]
