Dallas and Pharrell drink from the same fountain of youth 😆
I know right, they are both so handsome

So called Indian.
Not African.
Many black Americans are.

Made Drumline, created the ATL movie industry, worked w/ Texas. Damn. That's dope.
Dr Luv is always lovin' what Dr Love brings to the table consistently. These guests, this magical musical panel is so appreciated.

The audio is terrible. I have my phone on full volume and can barely hear the conversation...😬🤷🏾♂️
I love these but the audio is way too low. Phone is on max

Damn. What a story. Should make it a movie.
Can't wait until part 2!
I'm a huge Dallas Austin fan, he is one of my top 5 producers. I love hearing him talk, not only is he handsome but he is a great story teller. I wish I could be apart of Questlove Supreme I have questions I would love to ask each guest and I know my music too.
I wish I binged his bc now I’m thirsty for the rest!
So hyped when I saw that there is a Dallas Austin episode. Thank you thank you thank you!!!
Looking forward to part 2!
It was an old classmate of mine by the name of Vaughn Newton, aka " HotDog", who choreographed all the skate scenes from the movie, " ATL". Props to you Vaughn!

Super talented and a lot of history/Playboy
Incredible and insightful interview. My takeaway from this conversation is that you can’t do anything of significance if you don’t have our Jewish brothers and sisters involved. Don’t know how I feel about that but great episode nonetheless. Respect to QLS. Fresh Two Deaf Podcast🟥⬛️🟩

In the Midwest PFunk was a big influence
Wasn’t the movie Fled filmed in Atlanta in 1996
That Girl Taking the Creep Song and putting Her Spin on it, Dallas said , " Why Sue Her, when I can Pursue Her" ?
I just found out that my family’s real last name on my mom’s side is Austin!
Back in da day....Rose Royce's seco
