Say Less Classics: Dreamville President Ib Hamad

The crew is taking a much deserved break this week, so in the meantime for the newbies or the loyal followers, enjoy this classic episode of Say Less featuring president of Dreamville Records, Ib Hamad. On this episode, the crew talks about J. Cole's #1 album, The Off Season, and the years it took to make the project. Ib talks about J. Cole playing pro basketball in Africa and the focus he took to maximize his potential as an artist and an athlete. We also talk about why J. Cole took so long to work with other producers and features for a solo album, internet hate, the Off Season documentary, the deep connection with Dreamville fans, Ari Lennox's rise, his incredibly talented family, and so much more. 03:00 - Ibrahim of Dreamville Joins Say Less 04:00 - Jermaine In Africa 10:00 - Hoarding Music & Last Minute Entries 17:00 - Haters On The Web 24:40 - Features On The Album 39:00 - Reading The Comments 53:00 - Catching The Vibes 1:06:00 - Deep Diving On The Doc & Lyrics 1:12:00 - Cole Being Seen In Public 1:22:30 - Lockdown To Now 1:32:00 - Rosy's Girls TRIP 1:47:40 - As An Athlete REDUX 1:59:00 - KNICKS TO THE PLAYOFFS -- Follow Say Less:  Watch the full video of the podcast on YouTube.com/Kazeem.
