Ep.2 - Music Twitter, Ari Lennox & Nas

On Ep,2 of ISOS: How Twitter has affected the music fan, the artist and the relationship between the two, Ari Lennox's fascinating backstory & Nas' maturity.
On Ep.2 of ISOS: Ryan presents a piece on "Music Twitter", how it has changed music consumption, day-to-day conversations about music and how it has changed fans & artists alike.

Brandon makes his official ISOS debut, presenting a profile on Ari Lennox & how the piece is built on humanising the artist. The trio also discusses the journalist's job to be objective, whether it is a profile or review.

Brian, also making his official ISOS debut, presents a profile on Nas. Recently, publications have taken the profile in question and zeroed in on one specific paragraph where Nas says he doesn't want to celebrate "Illmatic" anymore. The trio tries to look past the 'Clickbaity' quote and get into the rest of the profile which shows Nas to be incredibly mature and seeking to smell the flowers while he still can.
