I Opened For Lil Jon In Idaho

In Episode 36 of Flow State Podcast, Harry returns with a solo episode centered on pushing beyond comfort zones in pursuit of growth. He reflects on opening for Lil Jon in Idaho, creating a brand new type of freestyle performance for his TED Talk, and the therapeutic possibilities of art. In this episode’s Meet The Team segment, Jordana asks Harry how he deals with perfectionism. Harry also answers fan questions about the hardest freestyle skill to master and how different beats influence the direction of a rap. After reacting to a fan-submitted freestyle, he closes the episode with a recap freestyle in classic Flow State fashion._____
