"OKP is kind of astonishing to me, even in 2015."


  

          

The number of smart, talented people who either join or emerge from the community is kind of amazing if you think about it.

Checking out Ikire Jones interview and still have Wale Oyejide's track with Dilla on Spotify.

Rappers.
Producers.
Singers.
Artists.
Writers.
Comedians.
Designers.

Look what Questlove did with his ant farm.
