Hip-Hop visionary Fab 5 Freddy joins Questlove to trace his path from Bed-Stuy Hancock Street to painting whole-car subway masterpieces, exhibiting in Rome, and helping bring Rap to the mainstream through Yo! MTV Raps. While discussing his new memoir, Everybody's Fly, Fred shares vivid memories of Brooklyn riots, preserving Malcolm X&rsquo;s final speech on reel-to-reel tape, and even cold-calling Thelonious Monk as a kid. Freddy unpacks Brooklyn&rsquo;s mobile disco scene, the origins of sound system culture, and how graffiti crews transformed subway cars into rolling art galleries. Along the way, he and Questlove swap stories about boomboxes, gritty &rsquo;70s New York, and the tapes, block parties, and community networks that laid the groundwork for Hip-Hop culture.See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.
