Solo, Elliott\u2019s built a discography as one of the most versatile producer-rappers of all time. They\u2019ve never signed the paperwork, so the books are written differently; nevertheless, the Architect\u2019s paving his own waves no matter what. On this episode, Erick chats with Michael about the moments that brought Erick from label marketing rep to underground legend to festival act. The two also reminisce on 2010s blog rap, and decode the concepts behind Future Proof, Erick\u2019s new EP and album and a framework for survival and self-improvement.
