Hello listeners. Today I'm pleased to share with you the third episode of NFT All-Stars, an original experimental, eye-opening animated series from Coin Desk. In this show, we mix some of the most important names in the emerging world of tokenized ownership with top talent, whose growing involvement will help define it in the years to come. You are listening to the podcast version, where we share extended cuts of our

interviews built just for audio. On today's show, entrepreneur, artist, and co-founder of

Rockefeller Records, Damon Dash digs into the business of art and how NFTs are already changing

it. Today's episode features special guest host Ed Young, who in 1988 co-founded the iconic

hip-hop magazine known as the source, and has done a lot of stuff since then, along of course, with Jason R. Bailey, also known as Art Gnome. Enjoy the show.
