Sometimes the most powerful conversations aren’t the polished ones—they’re the ones that almost didn’t make it.

In this exclusive, unfiltered episode of The Disconnect Podcast, host J No the Sun King & Eyebee Knowing sits down with Mistah Dred to dive deep into one of the hardest questions of our time: Is Pan-Africanism dead in America—or just waiting to rise again?

This is the lost episode—the one where the cameras ran out of data mid-shoot, forcing a full reshoot. What you’re about to see is the raw, original version—real energy, real emotion, no filters.

Together, they explore the legacy, the decline, and the possible rebirth of Pan-Africanism through culture, economics, and everyday consciousness. It’s a conversation that’s messy, honest, and necessary.

🎧 Exclusive. Uncut. Real.
Welcome to The Disconnect.
