DJ Drama always has the dopest, longest, natural sounding interviews with a lot of MCs. He is an OG in the game and knows just about everyone in it so that probably helps with the relaxed feeling of his interviews. It always just seems like him and some friends talking about life; except those friends are usually some of the best rappers in the game. This time it’s with MTV’s #1 ranked hottest MC and 2013 XXL Freshmen ScHoolboy Q.
