    The fact 21 Savage was willing to ask what a word means in the middle of a convo that’s going to be seen my millions of people is a sign of humility so many people lack, can’t ever stop being willing to learn

    21 was trying to fight back tears, you could hear it in his voice . Real talk, the convos about his dad triggered him deep and I'm glad Shannon was able to allow him to be vulnerable and guide him through the conversation from an elder's perspective and still allow him to feel through it. THIS is community and this is BEAUTIFUL. Big up Shannon and 21 Savage.

This interview stripped away the stardom, fame, and celebrity of 21 and left us with a humble and very vulnerable relatable man that I didn't know existed. IMO these interviews will do more to grow an artist's fanbase than any record they drop. 21 gained me as a fan today. To Shannon aka Unc, Bro your platform is golden.

    Shannon, this is beautiful. As a current psychology major, I admire your interviewing skills bc they create a safe space for your guests. In my opinion, it resembles therapy as well. Amazing interview! 🖐🏾⭐️’s

    This really made me look at 21 differently. I’m older and officially apart of the ‘this is not rap/hip hop’ crew. But honestly just hearing him say he’s talking about life more and at first he was just saying anything … makes me want to listen to the album. Also… I felt he was so open here and I love hearing men be vulnerable. ❤

    This is powerful. I commend 21 Savage for being open in his truth and Shannon for making the platform a place for truth ❤

    One thing the haters cant say about Mr Sharpe is that he isn't super prepared for his interviews. He also brings a sense of comfortability. The culture appreciates you Shannon and salute to my UK brudda 21. Great conversation 💪🏿.

    21 Savage seems like a very self aware, thoughtful young man. All the best to him.
