For this episode of the Mental Threads Podcast I have a special guest Liberian alternative rock artist Gucci Ron. me and Ron have been connected through social media for a while finally meeting each other’s acquaintance at Trey Rhodes Charlotte Spark event this past October. we delve into his interests from everything of Scott Pilgrim to Lil Uzi Vert's songs and how it impacted him. We discussed matters revolving around him growing up in Minnesota and then relocating to Charlotte and just the difference between those 2 cities. We talk about matters of him excepting himself as an individual from his love of rock music and just expressing that love through his own art. We also discussed matters of the Liberian community as a whole from Minnesota to Charlotte and so on. We speak on a whole lot of different topics.
