Summary

This week on A Waste of Time with ItsTheReal, we welcome the amazingly unique style icon, musician, producer, and lightening rod Theophilus London to the Upper West Side for what is certainly his longest, most in-depth and honest interview ever. In this winding and fascinating episode, we discuss where he's been musically for the past few years, how he first met Kanye, what their collaborative process is like, his involvement in Ye's "All Day," his run-ins with Ian Connor, how Bobby Valentino almost ended his career, how he got signed to Asylum Records, and much, much more!
