Highly regarded by many as this generation's Michael Jackson, Chris Brown has without a doubt joined the ranks of many legends, like MJ, but for the “Iffy” singer, he personally admits that he could not do it better than the entertainer who has inspired what he does today, but there is also no one that is doing it like CB.

Speaking with Justin, the Compton-bred rapper has a new outlook on life as he's bounced back from setbacks but also in tunnel vision on his musical journey and finding success. Roddy's current EP couldn't have come at a better time, as he admittedly shares that he feels people often forget about his level of artistry, which is now on a larger scale and he's stepped out of his regional Los Angeles upbringing.

Coming through to the LIFTOFF show, the "Shoot My Shot" emcee details how he's actively working to bridge generations of hip-hop with collaborations with the late MF Doom, Slick Rick, and Jay Electronica. IDK believes that rap continues to be segregated, but he's hoping to show that hip-hop creativity isn't always one-sided, as the genre stands the test of time and has an undeniable impact on the culture. IDK shares a surprise moment that happened while at a nightclub with Evan Ross and Offset, and he goes on to speak on his huge opportunity with a Nike deal, what he's learned about toxic masculinity, and whether or not he needed to change potential insensitive lyrics, and much more.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
