Back in October of 2022 DJ Clark Kent joined the Questlove Supreme podcast to discuss performing with Dana Dane, his incredible work with JAY-Z and Biggie Smalls, and signing Das EFX. The esteemed veteran also spoke about his fantastic sneaker collection and turning his passion into meaningful brand partnerships. Sadly, Clark passed two years after this interview, leaving behind one of the greatest and most far-reaching legacies behind the turntables, behind the executive desk, and behind the boards. We miss you Clark.

This segment from the Questlove Show was so powerful, we had to share it on its own.

Georgia Anne Muldrow breaks down the deeply personal origins of her “Stay Woke” lyric from Erykah Badu’s “Master Teacher Medley" over 18 years ago, and reflects on how its meaning has evolved—and been distorted—over time.

Questlove and special guest Open Mike Eagle share their reactions to her story. Please make sure you've heard the nearly two hour conversation between Georgia and Ahmir that published earlier this week.
