On the fourth episode of The Talks With TE Podcast TE. P & B. Jones chop it up with a historian in every sense of the word. John Morrison (@John_Liberator) is a writer, musician, and teller of OUR stories from Philadelphia, PA. He has bylines in many publications, he just recently released a book that deep dives into the making of The Roots' critically acclaimed album, Do You Want More?!!??! , with the same title. In a conversation that felt more like a reunion with distant cousins, the fellas talk about John's upbringing in Philly (4:15), why Black writers MUST tell Black stories (40:41), how one night on Twitter turned a love for The Roots' Do You Want More?!!??! album into a book paying homage to an incredible moment in Hip-Hop and Philly history (1:06:03), and much more.
