While in-studio, he opens up about his relationship with his family and the realities of "being broke."

thank you Sway and the whole squad for the love. hope y'all peep the album!
Loving the culture but not the bodies ewwww nice
I heard Tony Touch slide "Do The Work" in a mix. I gotta ticket Shazamming while driving home on the 405... I'll be 47 years old next week. Pops was a jazz musician, moms sang with ATL Philharmonic. I've been around music since birth and a hip hop head since 1983 and I STILL listen to everything. Old, new, mainstream, underground, etc. I will most DEFINITELY support your art. Your passion will materialize to more than what you've dreamed and the world will soon recognize. GO, DON'T WAIVER, STAY DAILED IN. YOU ARE SPECIAL! N' I'm out!!!
So proud of you Craft. Been a fan since the craftstyle days, and I have hyped and pushed your album onto everyone I know. You're going to be one of the greats, much love to you.
Yo I just listened to your album and it was amazing I love the jazz infused in it plus the song with dizzy Wright much love from new Zealand
Marlon Craft Dude....you made my morning!!! I’m 42 and you’re a breath of fresh air!! I hope they listen and let you rise Boss!!!💪🏾💪🏾
This kid has been nice for a minute. He was freestyling in his bedroom, dropping shit better than what most people were putting out with finished studio projects. He graciously walks a line that few can.....he doesn't come off as pandering, patronizing, or as suffering from White guilt. He doesn't have a cosign because of who he knows. He is where he is because he's genuine and has genuine ability.
Perfect👌👊
yeah i found him right before gang shit came out then i was sooooo excited for his album
Flawless 🔥
Truly the last mc
Joe you couldn't be more accurate.
Marlon is definitely a "breath of fresh air" in the rap community. Conscious raps continues on, with bars. Came in from the "state of the union" song.
"Dudes say they married to the game but divorce rate high" ...facts!
it is amazing that when someone bring real "hip hop" back to the modern
times, people are sleeping on this dude when there are real messages in
these barz; not candy coded lines that are not thought provoking; wake
up "Marlon Craft" is a upcoming GOAT!!!
Absolutely. Well said
It's because a lot of people are full of s*** and they don't put their money where their mouth is
This is what its about right here. Salute to Sway, Heather, Tracy and Marlon thank you for keeping Authentic, good looking out. Love the instrumentation.
This man deserves everything that will come to him. And I told him this years ago. This your time Marlon. You got this.
It continues to unfold. Been a joy to witness.
A white conscious rapper is a breath of fresh air so fucking true and the fact that it's not sampled jazz music is the actual instrumentation
I never seen Heather fired up like this
I've never heard of Marlon till today, I'm a new fan...
I don't comment on shit. But I need you to be seen and to be heard my boy. Much love
a real lyricist. thank you
Marlon I hear you. I've been hearing you for 4 years. Straight inspiring. Keep it up! You are making a difference in peoples attitudes and mindsets on sensitive topics
And thats what its about, spread your truth and never stop !
It does not surprise me that he is white and can flow like this... he is from New York....this is New York multi-cultural...you absorb all these different cultures...Marlon is like if Stretch Armstrong would be an MC instead of a DJ
That's y I say bring back the cypher the 90s flow all that shit. Need more Nas' , big krits , and j Coles out there no more of the fake shit. If all u can rap about is jewels can't fuk w u.
Mac wasn’t politically “woke” but he was 100percent spiritually woke especially the second half of his career
"My allegiance is to the truth... [Knowing who I am internally] trying to speak truth to whoever needs to hear it" 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Mad respect for honoring your truth and Craft
5:29 This was inspiring to me. “Being comfortable with yourself internally.” Thanks, Marlon!!
Never heard of this dude but I need to listen to this album because that snippet of that intro was super dope
38 white supremacists disliked this vid. MC must be doing something right.
I wanna see Marlon Craft, Locksmith, and ODDISEE do some shit together! Would be such a dope mix up!!
The views might not be the same, but thats how you make a team of leaders .
Craft & Oddisee would be beautiful!
Peep my mashup of Own Appeal and Shook Ones freestyle th-cam.com/video/LKFH7DlJHO4/w-d-xo.html
"Taste the Mic (Mike), but they will never reach, word to King James." 😱🔥🔥🔥🔥
He got that 96'Jay flow, (Highest compliment btw) which means he can probably rhyme over anything. And you can tell it's authentic; slick-talkin' New Yorker who can paint a picture and DEFinitely is thoughtful about what goes from mind, to pen, to pad. I initially skipped past this recommend, sure am glad I came back to it! Just food for thought for the Future; let's get a full album with live instruments. 😯
"I'm trying get this truth to the people and not end up like a Kennedy" Jesus Christ this guy is fire. 🚀🚀
Foreal I thought this cat was a brotha from his voice. NEVER assume is my lesson
Ok , and his lyrical contribution to the real struggle is real to the game to.
Yup yup from Dublin Ireland 🇮🇪
this young man has such a good head on his shoulders! keep up the good work Marlon! keep putting people like this on Sway! i love it
Marlon is a real one. Funhouse Mirror is incredible
Marlon Craft is the future of Hip Hop music. I'm already sharing with my bboys. Can't get enough of it🙈🙌🙌🙌
Im a big fan of Marlon, and I believe gang shit is a lot deeper than just being along cultural lines. Media and society perpetuate ideas (a lot of bad ones) that really aren’t issues, and people grow up believing they are downtrodden or benefitted from their many things when sometimes that isn’t the case. Its a mindset. Keep up the work Marlon and collab with more of the beast coast!
Soundtrack of New York. Beautifully consistent and jazzy album. An honest glimpse into an artist's soul. Thanks for sharing your music with the world.
Great interview. This artist is an intelligent empath but still hood and conscious . Issa shift!

You can tell who was brought up in the culture and TRULY respects it, knows not only the plants, but the seeds from which they grew.
When #Love is taught is flows like a River...
Joe Lucas - Nah. Black culture/music is being gentrified and yt-washed. Rock and roll 2.0.
Joe Lucas - I said what I said-clown.
@@hueykhalidX - The only clown I see is a race baiting try hard. Probably named Dave, from the suburbs.
Joe Lucas - Race baiting? STFU.
I never heard of this kid. I love that intro..I'ma check him out
Damn!!! That Intro IS CRAZY!!! Damn!!! 👍🏾👊🏾✌🏾🇳🇬🇺🇸
I just found out about Craft yesterday. You know what I'm enjoying so much about these interivews? The excellence of Craft's craft, but maybe even more than that, the response he's getting. It's a beautiful thing.

Craft killed that.wordplay and delivery.diddnt stumble once.
Mcraft is truly humble. Lyrics are off the chain. 👍✌🔥
Aye Sway have you ever had Zion I from Oakland Cali on the show? If not, you should bro. Locksmith too. Just have a Bay Area lyricists show ( like that show you did with the Hamiltones and Lupe and all them)....Get Mr Fab, the Hieroglyphics crew...Bruh that joint would be fire...
The intro for the album is wild! This guy is a real futurehead!
Man I need to see Marlon Craft link up with Akala in the UK, You and him could absolutely have some serious conversations on the nature and meaning of Hip Hop
Been following Marlon since seeing him rip up the team backpack cyhpers. Nice as wordplay plus delivery. Salute

My bro showed me Funhouse Mirror yesterday I think I’ve listened to it 500 times already 😂 not that much but it’s on repeat, what a great fuckin album
I just got turned on to Marlon Craft. After just watching the Gang Shit video. I wrote on the comment section that lyric. Why my gang got me in jail and yours got you at home in bed. I went straight to this video and that’s the lyric that you quoted!?.....bro! 🤯
Marlon Craft & Tobe Nwigwe collab, that be good
Well damn!! The flow. The voice. WoW!!!

Damn he's likeable ! Big fan myself.
He too real bruh! Super relatable fucking respect!
It's not too many white rappers who i listen to but Marlon Craft is on the list
Seems to be for the struggle...relatable.
Great video Sway!!! Marlon Craft downloaded for sure!
Saw him in Santa Ana a few days ago damn this guy can rock a crowd !
Now this is rap and inspiring
Anyone who looks past him being white sees the quality of this dudes work and recognizes how great it is
Marlon Craft
Loved this interview. Discovered a dope artist⭐⭐⭐
Marlon Craft is the Truth. Homeboy has been killin it for years. Why people sleep on him, I'll never understand
Marlon Craft a different breed. Top notch MC
"Same country yelling 'raise the roof ' raised Dylan roof. Shit we murdered king and gave that kid burger king" damnnnnn real shit
Cant wait to see him in LA
Sway you are a goat much luv for you bringing great artists to us
I’d love to hear his white voice. Cause you know he has one.
To think I was about to skip this video.....DOPE!!!!!!!!
Same, SMH!
Marlon got vibes! Sounds like jazz to me!
Not mad at the White Dave East. I got Dave East vibes for a few of them jawns!
Fuck yeah. Running NY but Marlon got a message compared to East
Got a new fan!
Luv his mind.
any spur of the moment them boys will pop like they're coaching kawhi .. wow
🖤🖤🖤
Yo Sway, next time you come to castle lite unlocks in South Africa, bring Heather B along with you
freestyle so good, camera man couldnt sit still. :D
I notice
"it's an ongoing thing" mc Craft
This is real freestyle
this dude gets it.
Brooo i neeed that fucking instrumental at 2:47 that shit is so fucking groovy. This guy can spit but whos the band that made that shit? I need a full album of some jazzy hip hop with live instrumentation like that. That shit sound like The Budos Band made a hip-hop beat. 🔥🔥🔥
You're fkkin RINGZ of fire!
He should have that platform, but no instead they want to fill are kids heads with junk hip hop, (if that's what you want to call it) refreshing, this young man.
Marlon Craft is dope! i like his rapping voice, he has an urban rapping voice ....if u know what i mean lololol
That's why I said I don't believe in reincarnation but I believe he was a former black man in his previous life
Mr. Beast raps now?
Dawg is fire....this is NY chance to takeover again...dont sleep
Dude should do a joint with logic!
Lol sway: I'll get it on the back end Pause
this dude creates his rhymes with a dictionary beside
Huge fan!hope you can make it to vancouver bc one day!
bc best weed n Canada
Why have I never heard of this guy before
alex vickrey No clue, he’s a beast
That's on you. Funhouse Mirror, flavors and craftstyles
because they dont want you to hear him.. they want you to hear lil punk or young stupid
Conscious rappers that don’t force pop appeal into their projects don’t usually blow up d:
Thts tht SHT Realrealhiphop 101 tht Head Knock Whr U At NuffSaid
Reminds me of Oddisee
Part 2 a poor white Appalachian maybe from Eastern Tennessee or Kentucky not racist by intent, and a well too upper middle class black man, and a Hispanic politician..BOOOM
K
38 thumbs down... must be mumble rappers.
Waiting for VladTV to ask Lord Jamar if Marlon is a guest in hip hop...
😂🤣
@@meganklobchar7014 like, I have to wonder what Jamars excuse could be. Besides just "he's white". He's about as New York as they come...lyrically insane. A student of the culture. Respects the forefathers of hip hop. What could he possibly say negative about him? 🤦♂️🤷♂️😂
DAMNNN sick!!!
