4:40 Why Saxon started wearing his signature suit "Old man stereotype need to be celebrated"
6:09 Adam is not impressed by any new young rapper with firearms in music videos sent from A&R
6:40 Saxon says the young rapper stereotype will eventually play out, all the best rappers are grown men like Jay-Z
7:32 Saxon references the X-Raided interview "We idolize these kids but they will grow up"
8:43 Adam explains why these new rappers are "disposable toy soldiers for the label"
10:21 Adam explains the parallel of how some 90s hip hop codes wouldn't fly today at all
12:10 The financial and cultural aspect of sampling
13:35 Saxon was a music professor right before Rhythm & Flow and just came out of being a homeless
14:37 How did Saxon ended up being homeless? + Working as a video game tester is THE WORST job ever!
16:30 Saxon on living in his car for 13 months!
19:44 How did Saxon finally find a place to stay + Not telling anyone he was homeless and find ways to hook up when you're homeless
24:04 "Rhythm & Flow came at the perfect time in my life" + The audition process was hush hush, they wanted rappers already doing their thing, who could perform, no brand new up and comers!
27:38 Saxon's mindset going into this experience + Being prepared for that moment
30:02 Adam points out the lyrical content and how it was clearly geared away from violence by any means "They clearly told us to NOT sound like Drake, they made it clear that contestants must be RAPPERS"
35:31 "DSmoke represents how great hip hop can be!"
35:50 Does DSmoke nepotism leave any room for a regular person to win the competition moving forward?
39:09 Judges feedback: Chance not hiding his religious preferences and veto anyone having any dark lyrics + Cardi not being objective enough and not making much sense
42:10 Did the show open a lot of doors for Saxon? "It helped social media wise but not so much about the actual music"
45:15 Losing to DSmoke + DSmoke telling Saxon he looks like Steve Harvey + Adam being a huge Steve Harvey fan now
47:34 Why Adam loves Steve Harvey
48:54 How is Saxon's life now? Prices went up for shows + Kicking addiction and relating to Juice Wrld's passing
49:54 The duality of being on TV and possibly not translating into hard ticket sales
53:53 How long did it take to film? + How is it to be on set with Cardi, Chance and T.I?
55:56 Reality shows age terribly like The White Rapper Show
58:11 Saxon asks Adam who is most likely to blow up from the show + Adam suggests R&F should be treated like the XXL class + Saxon says the aftermath of being on the show is where the competition starts, who will test the time and prosper
1:00:46 Saxon describes his music style and influences + Writing his EP 'The Perils' entirely while being homeless
No Jumper do a gaming channel I liked the video you did with mystic
Saxon ain’t doing enough youtuber shit. How does he not know how to convert his fame to stans??? Just make good music and stay smart.
Old Man Saxon was dope on the show and seems like a humble person in life.
i was just gonna type that he seems genuinely humble and down to earth.
Im really happy with the way the channel is heading. Much Love
Old Man Saxon is hands down one of my favorite artist on the scene. He is always him, and never fake. He is endlessly inspiring as an artist and a person. I have never heard a song I didn't like, or heard and an interview from him that didn't make me respect him more. I love that I come from the same city as him.
Bruh is talented and his branding idea is genius.. I think this shit got a chance to work.. Good luck G!!
Saxon cool asl. I loved him on the show. He's such a calm dude. :)

Old Man Saxon was a contestant on Netflix’s show titled Rhythm and Flow. The show is like “X-Factor” but for rappers and no strings attached win. He has a dope track titled “Perils” you need to look up 😏🔥
hey, you. i make alien music
Dude was wack D smoke was by far the best contestant from the beginning
Rafael Martinez how about you watch the interview and realize that Saxon is very obviously an intelligent person and this interview is very entertaining and educational, if you like his music or not. Dork
You're almost right, except flawless was alot better then dsmoke, infact flawless went to the final and threw the challenge just to put out a family track, facts, flawless on another level never had a hiccup
