    Seeing this interview has given me a the true perspective of Musiq. Only people that are truly introverts will understand where he is coming from.. I hope he finds peace with his childhood. We all need a support system and you can see he had to figure it out on his own. When you are comfortable in the background and you have a talent that puts you out in the front...it will always be hard to take a compliment and be comfortable to getting your flowers. You are coming from a pure place and people try and take advantage of that innocence.

    I haved loved Musiq since the very beginning!! 143 has been my most favorite song for the past 15 yrs!!
    My baby was killed at 10 months in 2015. My husband and I went to his grave for his first birthday. We took some Mickey Mouse balloons bc that is who he loved at the time. We were weeping and so sorrowful and as the wind blew, one of the balloons had 143 taped to it and I lost it! If you don't know, 143 means I love you and I felt like my baby boy was talking to me. I am crying rn as I remember that day.

      He had so many songs that were where I was as a young man. Me and and my now wife, had just started dating and songs that captured the things on first meeting, new love, previous relationship baggage, sustaining love, talking about the real things that you need in a meaningful relationship, Musiq captured it all! And even on songs like Dear John, he captures what it's like when the relationship comes to an end. I call my wife "Baby Girl" from his song of the same name... The way he was taking to the girl, "Pardon me mydarling, but do you have a second... Just so I can tell how you caught my full attention... How is that you look so well put together, flawless as can be it just doesn't get no better.
      Ya bodies picture perfect and there ain't a brick that's missin, you look like ya momma raised you on that grits and chicken..."
      All this was when were really outside having to have conversations and engage with women! Lol, he did it all! Salute to the legend!

    Wow!!! I don’t think I fully appreciated it until this very moment of watching this interview that Musiq Soulchild is truly on a genius level. He was beyond beyond his time; THE time...as most geniuses and deeply and extraordinarily creative beings are. But dang, I believe I’ve...and I definitely know that WE, as a culture, general public, consumers (alike), have taken him for granted. But when I hear these songs over a decade later they hit different...they transcend...they speak to my SOUL (no pun intended). Just WOW!! It’s like people like Tank, Musiq and countless others who have been on the platform speak a foreign language and THIS podcast; this movement, people like “The Valentine” translates it ALL. I’m probably not making sense. I can’t even explain all the things that I felt during this interview. Just thank you 🙏🏾.What a gift.

    Musiq Soulchild is a HUGE part of my childhood. He made me, as a little girl, feel beautiful and loved...helped me to appreciate my differences when others saw them as "flaws". I, as a child, felt seen and important. Not in any wrong way...but he said what my father would say to me, in lyric form. I love his artistry and timeless music 🥺🥺❤❤

    Around the 2:20:00 mark is where I got emotional. Because it's true for so many of us artists. Who don't quite fit the mold and who have been through so much, and don't feel like we'll ever reach those dreams. Falling into the darkness of disappointment. I appreciate Musiq's transparency so much and his willingness to share his trauma and his pain and just being where he is now, the respect and admiration of his peers and the masses. That's a blessing.

His albums never flopped and every single goes #1 EVERYTIME. He's the "nas" of R &B low-key 1 of the greatest neo- soul r&b singers to me. He's with D'Angelo and Raphael saadiq 👑

His childhood, his hustle, his innocence, his humility, his trauma...I get him even more. His 2nd album got me through the death of my mother. She was my world. I was listening to him as she passed away. I will always love and be a fan of his...even more so today. As always, great job Tank and J. V. MANY Blessings to you all and Musiq❤

JV's question About the age 17 record resulting in its own 'funny and f'd up' situation was invaluable and funny. I LOVE laughing along with yall waiting on him to come up with his TOP FIVE singers.
