I was nervous to interview Kwesta because of the amount of respect I have for this guy! But he really is exactly what it says on the box; just a true artist.
We chat about the honesty in his music, about knowing when not to be the smartest guy in the room, about rap battles and about meeting Catherine Grenfell and the impact meeting her had on his career!
