With Africa on My Sleeve
The last time I challenged myself to reinterpret one of Yoshi’s playlist concepts, I summed up the whole process to a conversation with the homie and a few consultations here and there. What I left understated was the amount of time and persistence that are needed to see it through — I’m still surprised, myself. In this case, I took up the challenge just a few days before ‘Haze and Phases‘ got published. Back then, I had the first and last songs in mind already. Everything in between took time to build because, for one, the whole “no fancy idea to this” thing was a smokescreen, and also, the logic was (pardon the pun) definitely hazy. Let’s take flight!
