Ahmir Thompson has without a doubt remained one of the most gifted musicians of our generation. Some have called him “the modern day Quincy Jones” while others simply call him, Questlove. Paving the way between Hip-Hop, R&B, Jazz, and Funk, Questlove has found a way to successfully link the four genres in astounding ways throughout his career.
As he sat down with Chairman Jeff Mao for an intimate conversation, Questlove shares stories of recording with The Roots and their transition to Late Night With Jimmy Fallon, the Grammy award that left the whole group surprised, Questlove’s never-ending search perfection, the biggest influences to his drumming career, and more, while having a Q&A session with the audience at the end. This is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
