Watch Stephen Colbert’s Great Killer Mike Interview
Killer Mike has been on the Late Show With Stephen Colbert before, as a performer with Run The Jewels. But last night, in a very cool twist, he appeared on the show as something else: As a speaker who needs to be heard. Mike is, of course, one of the great interviews in all of music, and he’s gotten some well-earned attention lately by interviewing and endorsing Bernie Sanders. On last night’s episode of Colbert, Colbert and Mike had a great, albeit short, conversation that touched on Sanders, on race relations in America, and on why white people should get their haircuts at black barbershops. Watch the interview below.
Still holding my breath for Run The Jewels 3 over here. Also, Colbert had a completely different musical guest last night: Foals.
