🎙 “Do it ‘til you don’t love it… and if you still love it, don’t give up.” — evidence This week on Offstage with Okayplayer, we sat with Venice, CA’s own Evidence — the marksman lyricist, soulful beat architect, and photographer who’s built a decades-deep legacy rooted in craft, not hype. From shaping eras with Dilated Peoples and Step Brothers (with Alchemist) to lacing classics for Kanye, Roc Marciano, Blu, Theravada and more, Ev’s work carries that rare weight — every word precise, every beat drenched in soul. 🎧 In this episode, he talks: 🧠 How “unlearning” fuels growth 🌟 Staying inspired while surrounded by greats 💰 Why artists should be proud to earn from their art Because if you’ve ever scribbled a rhyme on a napkin or built a beat just to breathe… you’ve already proven it’s for the love. Now own it. 📲 Tap in for the full convo — only on Offstage with Okayplayer, where the stories go deeper and the culture talks back. #Evidence #offstagewithokp
