EVENT: Coffeecompany x Son Little instore session


Meet Son Little, the Former Roots and RJD2 Collaborator Who Is Setting Out on His Own

“I think all the music that really connects, that I connect to the most, have at least two messages at once. There’s always a connection to something bigger. If it’s about the girl that left you or whatever, there’s always something bigger that really connects to the larger human struggle or whatever it is. I grew up listening to great artists, and am still growing up listening to great artists, that made great albums. I probably will never be out of the mindset that that’s what defines a great artist: someone who can make a record that’s 30 minutes, 45 minutes, 60 minutes that holds your attention. Illmatic, What’s Going On, all five records Stevie made in the 70s, Nevermind, In Utero... I could go on forever with it. I would like to create something for people to remember. Something that they put on and not have to do anything else. You know that listening to an album or a collection of music is an activity? You don’t have to email someone while you’re doing it. You don’t have to throw it on while you clean your room, while you wash the dishes. You can actually just sit there and listen to it, you know? Part of that is, I think, allowing your giddy love song to be next to a song about the military industrial complex which is next to the break up song. I’d like to do something that speaks to all that stuff and whatever is on my mind, rather than playing it safe. I don’t know if that was the answer to your question.”
