Vince easily carries conversations in a honest and impactful manner. he understands a lil of everything which makes anything he speaks on highly anticipated. shout out to him for both of those albums.

[@KidWZRDTV]

When sparks fly definitely one of the best songs of the year

Pharrell's "In My Mind" DEFINITELY deserves more appreciation Such an incredible record...

[@clementinelives]

The king of bridges

[@devzeppelin]

The “Remix” with The Yessirs is a gem. 🙌🏽

[@rtoriq]

@DEV ZEPPLIN thank you bc I was about to say the same thing; the ?uestlove/James Poser/Adam Blackstone touch was craaazy

[@2susjus]

I have so much appreciation for Pharrell’s patience with FamLay 🤣

[@phumlanindlovu5653]

the grading on this looks insane

[@phillyboywonder]

Vince & Pharrell are both such interesting individuals, both have had a huge influence on the culture and always have a unique perspective on life. Can’t wait to work with them one day 🫰🏾

[@fentanyljones6956]

Listening to Vince’s evolutionary learning curve via his albums in real time is special. It’s also a testament to his talent. What he did with what he had was always so much more than he shoulda had in him.

[@bcoleart8247]

Vince staples has the gift of being an amazing listener. He's the type of guest to push the ball forward by just asking questions!!! It's a gift to be able to tell stories, that actually turns the conversation into a conversation. "Great Interview"

[@manelisigwala9322]

INSAAAAAAANNE GRADING!! 🔥🔥🔥 BEAUTIFUL INTERVIEW. ALWAYS APPRECIATE HEARING VINCE SPEAK 🏆🥇

[@juandelossantos6376]

When Vince called his mom & she was like “mayyyneee” 😂😂

[@ammoe1000]

This podcast is a hidden gem 💎 and I’m grateful to find it

[@ShaunLaFaun]

This interview was some amazing brain food, you can tell they all genuinelly wanted to talk and converse, even with Fam Lay the engagement was pure just by the emotional feedback lol this was gold. Social media most times try to get us to think the same but thats the thing were not designed to. Plus in a world where everybody thinks the same the world collectively will be very dull. Hence why a world ran by robots will never work

[@LAVISHING]

Thanks for having my bud Vince on here!

[@OTHERtone]

🙏

[@Asapgross]

Vince is a gem protect them at al costs

[@ProfessorCDO]

Vince and Pharrell combo is awesome

[@vanvaldez3611]

+1 on when Scott said he still listens to When Sparks Fly at least 5 times a week..

[@OTHERtone]

Same. On repeat until further notice 🔁

[@Levijpg]

Loved this convo so much and just how natural and genuine it felt! Also the color grading in this video is so nice to look at visually 🔥

[@OTHERtone]

We appreciate the ❤❤❤

[@puresinema2001]

fam lay is me in every group project

[@rayrey90]

I love Vince's mindset because that's exactly how I am now. I'm just living...I'm not trying to conceptualize anything...only when it's put into action at the moment that it is.

[@rayrey90]

@Pason Jayne What?! Lol. You seem jealous! 😂😂😂🤣🤣😭😭😭

[@soupsoupington2634]

starting off talking about when sparks fly is how i know this will be a great interview

[@fentanyljones6956]

Crazy to see this interview that happened right before AI POPPED OFF

[@donzino4670]

great conversation, I'm bless to hear all talk.

[@rayrey90]

Great discussion here! I'm glad I'm came upon this. This is exactly the discussion that needs to be had among everyone.

[@UpThaPunxx]

I recognized the In My Mind comment from Pharrell instantly. If you were listening to his In My Mind mixtape leading up to the album at that time, you know how much of a disappointment the actual album was, and how much it impacted him. That switch between that Pharrell (and his ego), and this Pharrell. Like two totally opposite people. I think it was a huge moment of growth that really separated him from everyone else.

[@MrC.M.B.]

Facts that mixtape gangsta grills was dope. I did like in my mind though..some really good records on their

[@UpThaPunxx]

@@MrC.M.B. True. I ended up liking it more over time.

[@CurlyCurly52]

What Vince said at 45:23 was so spot on! There is no more interaction with the common man.

[@IronOfOgun]

LOVE 100%

[@VanHiller]

Love the convo & the jackets HARD🔥

[@rafeeqwarfield9690]

This convo applies to all art creation - enjoyed it

[@rtoriq]

This interview was beyond dope. And LMAO @ the dude with locs saying casually saying a robot can be throwing your grandma out the window 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 wth

[@leahmb3215]

lmaooo every example he gave was too much

[@NytiaHenry]

I just love hearing him TALK! 😊

[@jaburollup]

I needed to hear about Pharrell s take on "ascension" at this very exact moment in my life.

[@ProfessorZo]

I’m just hype to see Vince in a Mets hat

[@ChiefAleel]

One of the realest out there

[@Ronirossoux]

I really enjoyed this

[@zyn4327]

I love these open conversation format videos. I never knew I needed Vince x Pharrell x Fam-Lay having a conversation like this but my life is better for it. I love that it's people who don't speak to the media often coming together to have a very REAL conversation. So much transparency and authenticity. This is definitely one of those videos I'm gonna come back to often. I really love when Vince gets to sit down in settings like these vs the more structured radio etc appearances. Reminds me of his conversation with Hasan Minhaj for GQ.

[@immaculate_g_253]

I need friends like Pharrell who can have conversation like this I think it’s because people my age are moving to fast

[@mcbdllc2848]

conversation like what? Generally curious what you think

[@jeanultra816]

Wait wait wait … he said “in my mind” was failure? Naaaaaa . That’s a effin classic!

[@xMXWLx]

the failures are usually the things that stick out and separate themselves and inspire others to do so. i.e Tyler The Creator.

[@KevinJXT38]

I never really liked Vince Staples or thought highly of him in any regard but after deciding to just sit and watch/listen to this discussion with him, I now have a new outlook and respect for this guy.

[@DeadPoolLilCuzin1567]

Hopefully yall can get D'angelo on here one day

Bro tell me how I JUST heard the news about Takeoff passing, then I click back on this interview and the first thing I hear is Vince talking about dice games and how it’s “too much risk, too little reward”. Fuuuuuuuuck! 💔

[@lionelthebuilder]

At first this was boring but I caught the chill vibe and got used to the mellow tone

[@notnotsyaj]

Shit dopeeee! Aaaaghhhhhh. Going home so full and inspired, dog

[@DonLouVee]

scott always wanna send somebody something 😂

[@seeingsoundsla2008]

font on the Mets cap is fire - who made that hat?

[@trollgaming01]

Rumour has it that one time Oloff was sat next to Jar Jar Binks on a flight. Jar Jar kept kicking the chair in front of him and generally being obnoxious, nobody knew what to do. Eventually one of the flight attendants came over and asked Oloff if he would perform one of his songs to calm Jar Jar down, and when Oloff began rapping the first verse to Doing It Stealthy, Jar Jar immediately relaxed. To this day the two are still close friends.

[@1haitian1]

What song did Pharrell compliment Vince on at around 57:19? Did he say “We Want Smoke”? I looked it up but I can’t find it

[@ig2203]

[@orinink4840]

11storages??? ...for stuff ( that's how much and how many people love this brothers work )...love the message in this .good one for a country about to go through withdrawal economically also about understanding that we are not our things .very wise coming from what many consider as thought leaders for a generation ...it's not really stating the obvious or full on issues it's trying to inspire ..interesting .

Did you need to even say this bruh....Just stop watching and move on

[@pro_gamer8489]

I'll never forget the first time I heard Doing It Stealthy by Oloff. I thought "wow, this is great, but it's nowhere near as great as some of his other great hits like I Don't Breathe, Beating the Heart, or his Send for Phil Vickery."

[@niccik7772]
