My Interview with Flying Lotus

I was lucky enough to do an in-person interview with Flying Lotus about a month ago. He was gearing up for the release of his new album (which comes out today) and I have been wanting to get him up on Nu-Soul for a while. I am really proud of this piece. I think I found out some things about Flying Lotus beyond just his music and it was a great, laid back experience for both of us.
