Part 2: Special Ed on 2 Friends Catching Drug Kingpin Charges, Keeping a Gun as a Teen

--------

Brooklyn rapper Special Ed reminisces about a significant interview that took place 21 years ago when Vlad was first starting out. The interview, which took place in Special Ed's home, didn’t get published as the book it was intended for didn’t make it to publication. The chat, though, had a profound impact on Vlad's career, and he thanked Special Ed for the opportunity. Special Ed responded that it was a pleasure and also a unique experience, as he was normally private about letting people into his home. The rapper also mentioned his Jamaican heritage, describing how his family migrated to the US. Ending the discussion on a rather thoughtful note, the rap legend stressed the need to continue the fight against police brutality and racial discrimination.
