Equal parts confessional and hip-hop history masterclass, the hour-plus chat covers a lot of ground between old friends, who blazed trails (and a ton of tree) in the formative moments of the "conscious rap" era in NYC. Spanning Nat's transition from hustling in Marion, IN to sharpening his incomparable stream-of-consciousness flows in Washington Square Park to finally signing a record deal and, eventually, squandering it, the interview is an intimate portrait of freestyle's golden era from the vantage of one of its great pioneers.
