Artist Interviews Ric Wilson Interview

This week Features Co-Director Mick R spoke with Chicago hip hop artist Ric Wilson about his new collaborative EP with Terrance Martin, They Call Me Disco, and got Ric's thoughts on the recent BLM organized protests and why he doesn't let a lack of social progress in this country get him down. It's a fun, energetic, and poignant conversation with one of Chicago's true up-start icons.

You can get a copy of They Call Me Disco on BandCamp.
