Harry’s back with Flow State Episode 11. In this solo episode, Harry gets real about the undesired effects of algorithm-fueled social media scrolling and how he started reclaiming that time in his day. He answers questions about what he’s currently reading, who inspires him, and who could take on the role of Harry Mack when it’s time to film the story of his life. Harry also talks about getting lost in flow state and what’s happening when he closes his eyes during a freestyle. After reacting to his viral Move Ya Body collaboration with Marc Rebillet, Harry sums up the episode in a freestyle so fast it outpaces the studio’s wi-fi.

I used to start my day by scrolling through various science articles (for the layperson, yet well written enough to be useful maybe). I should start doing that again I think. These phones can be amazing portals of knowledge or just massive time sinks that seem to de-evolve my brain. And I can only blame myself if the latter occurs.

I think an underrated superpower of HMack is to summarize information coherently and concisely no matter the topic or how many things were brought up in the conversation. The end of pod freestyles are so crazy not just because they’re sick freestyles, but they’re also perfect summaries of the episode. Amazing! 🤯👏🔥

I have been using a bullet journal for the last two years+. It has evolved and changed so much. From a scheduler, planner, and journal down to a daily check in, habit tracker, and gratitude tracker. I had started and quit so many times. I have accepted my use of it and use when I need it, which has turned into almost daily. I am going to start carrying a pocket journal for random thoughts. Opening a journal over my phone.

You have a great POV and its refreshing to see someone who is naturally genuine. Just know that you have a huge following that believes in you, and you will never go wrong being yourself on your platform. Honest and genuine. Keep it up bro! We will continue to tune in!

Not all people would appreciate the chance of you getting your life back from all the algorithm our social media presents. If you have a chance to do this like Harry, do it. It might sound seem irrelevant but thats how this algorithm are made for. To hook a person into spending more time scrolling. Every milliseconds you spend on this platforms the bigger the data they collect and the more effective it becomes to give you more the things the algo thinks your into. I appreciate content creators that acknowledges this kind of things today in this generation.

I've heard you mention Eyedea a few times in passing as you list off inspiration, so it was great to hear you expand a little more about him and that you saw him live at show(s) and what that was like! Eyedea, back in 2000 via the Blaze Battle, was my gateway to underground hip-hop. He was always the #1 freestyler by a long shot, until HMack came along.

Majority for hobby related things....I even at one point went and pre-numbered front and back all the pages and left a page in the front for a "table of contents" and was like "okay this will keep me from messing up, or using a random page in the middle to write down something unrelated, etc." but alas I got to probably like 20ish pages in before messing that one up lol. Done highlighters, having multiple different color pens to write with and all other sorts of methods to try and keep it "perfect"" but it never works haha.

😂I get you completely, I installed this app for timing your screen time, going into each app. Like KZfaq? 2hrs a day; Whatsapp I have 3hrs 30min etc? And right of the bat? Epic fail! Cause as I was running out of time? I was notified. I was also able to add time... or turn it off completely! So if I was watching something... I first added time 🫣.... and then I inevitably would turn it off for the day if I was still watching something, and I was into seeing the end! I obviously promised that I would just watch to the end of the specific content? 🙄 As I said? Epic Fail! 😂🤣🤣.
