Business of HYPE: Sage Elsesser
Музыка
Sage Elsesser has always been something special - more than a skater, more than a model, more than a musician. Sage thrives in the blur of his own artistry. Lately he’s found his lane as Navy Blue, and as you’ll find out in this episode his influences run as deep as his lyricism. Most recently, Elsesser's seventh studio album Ways of Knowing was released to critical acclaim under his own label, Freedom Sounds.
BoH host Angelo Baque (Founder, Awake NY) has been with Sage since the very beginning. Together they trace the roots of their relationship, as well as Sage’s own part in introducing Earl Sweatshirt to Tyler the Creator.
This season of Business of HYPE is sponsored by Bulleit Frontier Whiskey.

Crazy to think that Sage was the bridge that brought Tyler and Earl together. It’s really cool how honest he was about feeling a sense of resentment about it too. Real stuff.
so sage introduced earl to tyler . thank you sage

He truly doesn’t. I truly didn’t know he was a skate boarder. I just know him for rapping and modelling. And modelling very recent. I saw a photo of him passing by a store and I was shook. And confused but happy at the same time.

@@cmooreHD you didn’t knew he skated because you probably don’t skate. And tbh he hasn’t been modeling that much in a while, as he said on this interview he doesn’t work/skate for supreme anymore and that’s was his main gig modeling
this was the most enjoyable interview ive experienced in a while
grew up watching supreme / ic skate vids, glad u got to speak about that era cause what sage brought to skating is timeless
Navy Blue the Truest
First interview like this ever…CRAZY! Glad we got this
This show is amazing
The multi faceted Sage
Great interview 💯

Bro is so soft-spoken, legend

Crazy I discovered him through music under his alias “Navy Blue” he’s 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Shoutout to Sage. His music and production is incredible.
mad inspiring
This IS pretty fire, Didnt know much about who Sage was.
Excelente trabajo Angelo esta y las anteriores entrevistas, seria interesante tener spanish people too.
His music is dope af. I always saw him as a model but dude is talented.
The painted finger nail thing definitely so true!!
much love 2 sage thebe and tyler 4 being them
This is dope. Saw dude on a lot of stuff but didn’t know anything about him outside of the skating.
sage is the soundest, bumped into him when he was playnig near me, chatted to us for time, got me and my mate on guestlist and took a usb wit some of my beats on, shit and he killed his set, always will love the guy
such an inspiring dude always
Blessings

Crazy how much more real Sage is then Sean. No hate just an observation of the duo that changed the game in terms of style within skating for that time period.
They gotta up the volume on the guest mic. Cool interview though.
Sage is going to be the most outstanding father one day
fucking sick. let's go
