This was a REAL interview, they actually knew what they were talking about

[@pololee-james8347]

THANK YOU Sobering Podcast for getting Vic to really talk.
16min in I've learnt more about the backstory to his bars than his Breakfast Club conversations where Charlamagne always has an angle.

[@samuelharry5266]

These might be the best hip hop podcast weve been hear from day one keep on giving us the education my Gs South African digital media is moving on a different frequency right now from Mac G podcast Sobering, Slikour on life and how informed yall niggas are with it we peeping the game through your lenses and we learning so much dont know where and how to start but u definetley inspire South African kids. We appreciate it doing for hip hop not watering it down for numbers especially now with the Amapiano fever hip hop needs a voice shoutout to you for staying consistent you really bring the intelligents to the movement liberating.Im a big fan and I just wanted to give you your flowers.

[@jay_Mus]

A lesson south africans should learn ,producers are important as artists just look how many times he shout outed the producers

[@simonmoyo9120]

Lol who didn't shout you out when they were supposed to?

[@jay_Mus]

@@simonmoyo9120 lol didnt you read what i just said in depth , its not about when are they supposed to or not , its about being conscious on how the music industry works ,that every one plays a role in it equally and mentioning producers shouldnt be a thought process .lol im 100% sure youre one of them leggards who suddently have a opinion about hip hop since its fashion, you
