"I was more good in English and words." -Logic, 2017

if you love selling drugs, become a pharmacists or a general practitioner. checkmate neil!

17:26 That was Logic's exact point though, He was saying do what you love to do, but you need that dose of Realism still to keep you in check so you find what really works.

4:50 I actually happen to think Logic had a terrible childhood, because of the fact that he isn't projecting himself to be a tough as he should be because of his background. Like if everyone around you is using drugs, and running around with guns, it changes your persona because you're in a tough environment, so you gotta be hard. It's actually a lot harder to just be you, and able to seperate right from wrong etc.

2:24 Neil's face was hilarious XD

2:23 "Now, here's the crazy thing!!!" 2:26 *Neil's face*

I was expecting Hank Green playing rapper Logic

logic is cool as fuck i gotta start with that but he reminds me of milo from atlantis even his enthusiasm i just see milo and its fantastic much love man

I died laughing at the rubicks cube bit 😂

i didn't know logic till now but man, i'm impressed. i love this guy.

I can't stand how the guy in the middle glazed over everything Logic said and just focused on the homeschooling thing.

I wonder if Logic likes Nike

Thanks for the vid!

Mashable just makes me think of potatoes. Then I start thinking what would other foods be like mashed. Tacos? Spaghetti?

Towards the end when they were discussing that you can do anything but be realistic, I think the "be realistic part" doesn't already limit you and stop you from achieving from what you want to do but rather allows you to realize what is simply unchangeable and makes you realize that there is a plethora of many more things you can do that you love, you just have to find it!

Another one?? How did I miss this!

I'm not even half way done, his story is incredible ..

This was amazing. More of this.

I don't even like rap particularly, but I found this conversation very interesting.

is it me or was the audio very quiet i had to max out my speakers, max out volume in both windows and in youtube just to hear them

0:27 ''And the director of my home'' I laughed so fucking hard.

Hey I am a fan of logic love you man and keep doing don't even pay attention to these people man love you and just do you

i love neil hes my favorite human alive today

Honestly really enjoyed those parts in the album

I so agree with "you can not do what you love / juxtaposed with realism". In my view: "Do what you love, if you genetics and disposition allow for it"

Neil can You make this longer and or Make a Podcast thanks

Oh this is a short clip of the full interview that's on soundcloud

The guy in the middle literally saying that being homeschooled “wasn’t as tough” doesn’t consider the struggle of mental health. He is basically saying that Logic’s story and struggles aren’t justified to be who he is. Like what the heck? You gives you that right to tell someone who they are? Not only that but they did not do their research enough to even talk about this. Smh.

17:26 I think he meant realism as in just because you believe in it doesn’t mean you will automatically get it, he is saying that you still have to work hard.

For such a renowned content creator as Mashable, I am surprised they posted a video with such bad audio. Not sure if it is the mic or what, but it needs some compression badly! (at least where NGT is in view )

2:26 that deep gaze

"flexin' on me" lmbo

I love listening to these people talk. They are funny and interesting.

Multidimensional Rubik cube😂

"Last I checked I'm the human race" - EXACTLY. I think the same thing all the time and I get baffled why so many other people struggle with that concept. We are the *human* race, nothing more, nothing less. And it is a good argument that identifying as a "race" is empowering. But, we should be able to feel empowered as individuals and as humans rather than needing to fit into a specific category just to feel "empowered".

Do what you with realism is the best way to say it. You can do anything, but there is no guarantee that you will be the best at it. You have to do what you love so that you don't regret your life despite the results.

Genuine

I love deGrasse's totally logical approach to everything. Also what does an extradimensional rubik's cube look like

Hey I was in that class lol. good times in 10th thru 12th they gave us power tools lmao.

a multi-dimensional rubiks cube lololol....that part got me

I love logic

Quality content

Wtf is up with the audio in this episode? Mashable you need to check yor balancing. Several portions of this were imperceptable at max volume.

17:45 Mary J Blidge is tone def... You can do anything.

Dat's mint

"good aye mate" lmfaoooooooooo

I was home schooled B!!

Love Neil aha

I think the reality check was meant as a part to start and plan the works to achieve what you want to do.

damn idk who is the guy with the hat but that guys has knowledge of streets but very smart talking.... @8:56

Hey mashable, check the audio levels before you upload!

I hate to say this but there are people who are tone deff and sing wonderful.

Interview Bernie Sanders !!!

5:06 The link of violence and Hip-Hop comes from its birthplace, the hood. Impoverishment leads to a violent environment and since Hip-Hop is (or at least used to be) about telling your story and where you came from honestly it has to be present in the lyrics and overall in the culture. Then there's the fact that although Hip-Hop was built on unity it was also built on competitiveness, the ladder often leads to negativity or violence.

OH SNAP, De Grasse ahve the Hellraiser Cube!!!

Logic is so pure.

Being a Kid that was born in 1979 schools didnt know much especially whento place kids with so called learning disabilities especially. Kids that came from a broken home .some even misdiagnosed .in the early 80s and 90s. when i was old enough i thought. I had no more options left. I wanted to learn to d.j. music. but later was in a horrible car accident i boke my back in 4 places and i was told I'd never walk again. Boy were they wrong! Realizing what hepls me is i have. A lot ofpassion for art music comedy any inspiring tools can motivate me can also help others to use in everyday life. includeing psychology. So what I think ligic's message is never give up your dreams. stay true ourselves then mabe we'll do the same for the 🌎 we all have to treat the world better.!🃏🎭🎧🎤🎸✌🎨

There's a shirtless guy drinking a soda at 00:24 on the upper right side.

"Hip Hop: Peace, Unity, Love and having fun." - Tyson Truth

I don't fuck with the guy in the middle...

Chuck nice is a good co host

9:43 Neil's face says "End my life now"

Rubrics tesseract

These guys need to do more research before there interviews or else it just seems mediocre and unprofessional. I gave up finishing this video around 4:50 when they pretty much said Bobby's life wasn't that hard, if they listened to "Dear God" or "5 a.m" then they'd know he's been through and seen a lot of shit, it's just that he doesn't discuss it in that particular interview with Neil because it doesn't seem like the time and place to say "Oh yeah my mom almost killed me when I was 11 cause she was on drugs, not to mention witnessing his sisters getting raped in front of him and he couldn't do anything about it and a whole bunch of other shit".

Need to get Niel deGrasse & Deadmau5 in one on one interview. Would be very interesting to see.

Damnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn who daaaat 8:21-8:23

I want to watch this but the audio is just too all over the place.

Middle guy is my favorite person, why are people hating?

I was put in special ed too. That path started before i was 5, learned to read mostly on my own. My parents tried to put e in school a year earlier but i was physically not really ready, i was going to be too tiny. At 1st grade, i tossed my books to trash couple of months in, teacher was horrified and made me dig them out: my excuse was that i had done them all. Same happened next year, sans the trashing. Then started 3rd grade.. I got punished for even reading one page ahead. Physical punishment, hair and ear pulling, standing in front of hot radiator and of course detention. For doing too much. I tried to do just half page more but nope, i was monitored. was smoking cigarettes in few months and breaking in empty houses. We even had our own house for a while, until we accidentally burned it down. I was finally put into permanent detention, no matter if i had done anything or not. Rest of school years all the schools made special rules for me to single me out and to punish me more than others. I got stipends, i aced the tests, got good grades but didn't give a shit. Finally at 8th grade i had amassed record amount of detention (200h) in couple of months they put me in special ed. Record was easy, they once again modified rules for me so i got 1h for one point in the "book", everyone else in the whole school had 3 points / 1h. So i racked a dozen in just one class; one for coming half a minute late and not even being the last in, one for not doing my homework, few for mouthing back, one for challenging the teacher and winning, one for talking back again and so on.. I did 8th and half of 9th grade in first year in that class. It didn't improve later, in vocational school (my parents are religious, they didn't want me to go to academics, their BIGGEST fail, otherwise they are quite cool..) i had 4 x F and still B average. The F's came from skipping classes. Had to repeat that year, missed even more classes but then they made an exception to let me pass. Turned out the 2nd year of "it tech" was about fixing radios and we had zero IT.. This has repeated in every school, have been in 6 of them after mandatory, always going thru the material in couple of months and then skipping the rest. That does not fit well with the system we have here in Finalnd, even thou it is one of the most "personalized" school systems on the planet. Turns out, you can pick your curriculum but it has to be the kind where you still sit in classes everyday. Last school i had amassed so much courses that i skipped one year and even that wasn't enough; even if i had taken every class, i could not get enough hours to be full time student. I could about graduate tomorrow but i don't think i ever will bother. I have enough work experience as sound engineer and stagehand and coder and 3D modeler and touring musician and instrument repairer and gardener and and.. Turns out, you can do a lot of things in your life, just one would be sooo boring...

I want Logic's hat.

This interview really opened a lot of doors for me in regards to racism, universal understanding, and other matters of the heart and soul. But, of all life's questions, I have but one more to ask, which is... is Logic biracial?

I'd like to think I'm street geek. One minute watching anime and the next head banging to scarlxrd lol!

logic pro, is the next logic album

Damn I want that Nike hat.

Ok so i have a question regarding race. Its not racist or mean or anything like that. So i was raised in a rural area with two white parents. When i was 16 i found out my biological father is black. I was raised white and all that so i didnt really say i was black cuz i didnt know and i never had to deal with issues that black people have to deal with more than white people. I am a light skinned person similar to logic so i just didnt realize my heritage or whatever. I finally meet my dad who has a black wife with kids and i felt so at home with them almost more so than the people who raised me. So im just like since i was raised the way i was(which was a good bringing up anyway) but i feel good around and can sometimes identify with my black side can i say, yeah im black or mixed or would that be wrong since i was raised white? Please dont think im racist or being bigoted

17:51 well Beethoven was deaf and he's still one of the greatest composers in the world so...

I would watch this, but Chuck Nice

im not very smart but damn i can understand this convo... with ur 4th dimension cube lmfaooo

Niel's nephew should go work for Genius, seems like he knows a good bit about hip-hop.

Funny cuz I was just saying to thkse around me how I do not believe and early education(according to the bpard of ED system) is ideal.

I was fidgeting around a rubik's cube while watching this. But I've done exactly the opposite of Neil; I just googled instructions and learned that. :P

So this is the guy who I keep getting when I'm looking for UK logic....UK logic is good

Easier said than done to "just do what you love." I'd go to college full time to become what I want to become to do what I want to do, but then who's going to go to work and pay my mortgage and other bills?

I was home schooled 3rd grade through high school graduation. Didn't take away from my intelligence at all because I taught myself the way I needed to after I was 14,hence how I've learned so much about universal expansion,x-element thesis',nuclear thermodynamics,molecular engineering,and much more,math not so much never was very good at math but I got by,the only drawback is I have little emotional intelligence and even less social skills,but who needs friends that you can't intellectually connect with on the same level anyway,that's what I look for in a friend or a woman,intelligence,because its boring as hell to hear,"o yeah man I got a new ride" or "I got a nice new welder".....yeah,good for you buddy,or with a woman "o let me tell you what so and so did today"....or "how does my hair look today".....obviously you have to say good and listen to the stories,a man's job is never done lol,I wanna hear "hey did you hear what nasa was gonna do to the Yellowstone supervolcano"...or "did you see the new space suits that astronauts will be wearing soon"....I'm like immediately marry me or if it's a friend dude move in with me lol,we all need someone to relate with,hard to find in the south,never has been easy to find in the south,because all the smart ppl have the intelligence and common sense to MOOOOOVEEEE!!!! Lol

I wanna know how to solve the rubic cube

17:45 Ludwig van Beethoven was deaf. Who are you to tell others to not strive for greatness, or what they love to do? Who are YOU to limit THEIR realism?

I wanna see Logic vs Rich Chigga battle on the rubix cube. Chigga won some competitions in his home country.

Not teaching you a thing is teaching you everything.

"Last I check i'm the human race" Oh Jesus the Irony.

I only watched this because I wanted to see God talk to Logic 😂(Neil DeGrasse Tyson was God in scripts in album)

8:22

Be different, just like everyone else.

Disagree with Chuck at 17:30. You can if you're willing to put in whatever's necessary to get it (Logic's point). If you're tone deaf, you better be willing to sing, get lessons and work your *** off until you can sing. If you're 4'10, it's highly unlikely to be a center for LAL, but if you have a better sky hook than Wilt and you can out rebound Dwight Howard, you'd have a shot. Point is, if you want it more than you want to breathe, it's possible.

> "If you do it wrong you get sucked out of this dimension, never to be seen again" lmaoo

Chuck's ears are upside-down

Ngl didn't even know logic was mixed for the longest.

Neil is are saver, and he will lead us to another planet later on in life. Sike he'll be long gone.

on da side doe.... some beautiful guts in this video
