Musiq Soulchild Interview With Gowhere Hip Hop

Last Saturday, I had the opportunity to interview Musiq Soulchild, who was in downtown Chicago to celebrate black music month. We were at the Kristol Blake Salon & Spa, and were treated to some tasty food and gift certificates while waiting for Musiq. :) Anyway, not going to lie – at first I was intimidated to interview such a legend, but he ended up being a really nice guy. Musiq first talked about his contribution to the Frankie Beverly all-star tribute CD,Silky Soul Music. He also felt blessed to honor Marvin Gaye in the song, who was one of a few influencers he let us know about as well. I really loved the “Silky Soul” video so I wanted to talk about the creative process behind it; Musiq not only touched on that, but also some early details about his upcoming sixth album, which Soulchild intends to release by September! This interview was definitely a great experience in a different environment that I was not used to. Hope you guys like the interview!
