Taylor Bennett on New Music, Being Chance the Rapper's Brother, Coming Out as Bisexual (Full)

In this full-length interview, Taylor Bennett gets the discussion started by openly admitting that he didn’t know exactly where he was, was until he recognized the background from a Calboy interview with VladTV from last week. From there the Chicago native talks about growing up in the West Chatham neighborhood of the city, the role that systemic racism plays in the area, and the influence that his father had on Barack Obama’s presidential run.

As the interview moves along, the “Broad Shoulders” rapper shares his take on the ripple effects of slavery, the impact of south-side rappers such as Lil Durk and Cheif Keef, and the moment when he first began to take his rap career seriously. Bennett cites artists like Lenny Kravitz, Queen, and Diana Ross as influences but names Twista as his main inspiration as a musician. Lastly, the 26-year-old talks about growing up with his older brother, Chance the Rapper, and coming out as bisexual before sharing his thoughts on the infamous sex tape involving Isaiah Rashad.
