LISTENING BOOTH is where I look through the lens of underground hip hop at life and the world and offer writing about—and around—music that inspires me. Free from industry timelines and pandering, it isn’t about advertising or ranking artists. It’s about seeing them at work. It’s about contextualization and limitless possibility. Tracks become paragraphs. Deep listening leads me to new depths of understanding and a type of renewal. This is where I’ll work out my perception of what I hear in a particular track, voice, effect, phrase, cadence, hook, theme, technique, or production style. This is where a track instructs.
