In this clip, legendary journalist Touré talks about his process of interviewing. He spoke about his time at The Source Magazine while also detailing his experience at other networks/platforms such as Rolling Stone and BET.

Touré and DJ Vlad discussed the role of journalism within entertainment and how it walks the fine line between journalism and public relations. To that point, Touré told a story of BET shelving his interview with R Kelly where he asked a series of tough questions but due to Kelly’s relationship with BET the network put the interview on ice after only broadcasting it for one night.
