Matt Sonzala Interviews Too $hort - Scion Musicless Conference

It. Went. Down. This wasn't intended to be a podcast. A few years back, Scion held a music conference called the Scion Music(less) Conference, and it was super rad. They basically brought out a lot of my friends in the industry, and we did panels and talks, and really just kicked it by a pool in Los Angeles and chilled on down with some snacks and drinks. This interview happened beside said pool. It was the opening night, and this was an exclusive dinner with some extreme taste makers, all posted up eating good, and chilling. They had interviews with Angelo Moore from Fishbone and Nile Rodgers live on stage, and I was smack dab in the middle interviewing Too $hort. No one recorded these interviews, except me. I brought my little MP3 recorder thang, and decided that I needed to at least record my interview for myself. Welp, I recorded all three interviews, and let me tell you, all three are great. I was sitting with Killer Mike and asked him to make sure it kept recording, and since we all went back to back, it was easy. I got it all. You can hear Killer Mike laughing throughout the interview. Too $hort was a huge influence on him, and man, this was such a special night. Shout out to Jeri Yoshizu at Scion! I was thinking about cool things I could post up on this here Pushermania Podcast Network thing, and I remembered that I had this audio. I hit up Jeri to see if it would be ok to post it and she said yes and I said YAY and welp, here it goes. Big ups Jeri Yoshizu, Scion and Beyond Marketing. It is my opinion that you should do another Scion Music(less) Conference, because they are fun, and I like to have fun. Holler. Lets do this. Please repost and send this to your peoples. People love Too $hort mayne, don't be selfish. And there's a lot of real talk on this podcast. We talk about his earliest days and how his promotion and sales in the streets relate to the internet age. Too $hort is insightful, I mean, honestly, he is brilliant. You want to know how to make it in rap? Ask Too $hort. He is the King of independence, even though he was on Jive. Anyway. It's pretty real. Tune in. Pushermania Podcast Network is about to get really real. (PS That's not me in the picture with Too $hort. That's a picture I took of $hort and Angelo from Fishbone. I don't dress like that, though I am not against it. Anyhoo LISTEN!)
