  • Georgia Anne Muldrow On The Personal Origin Of "Stay Woke"
    2026/04/17

    This segment from the Questlove Show was so powerful, we had to share it on its own.

    Georgia Anne Muldrow breaks down the deeply personal origins of her “Stay Woke” lyric from Erykah Badu’s “Master Teacher Medley" over 18 years ago, and reflects on how its meaning has evolved—and been distorted—over time.

    Questlove and special guest Open Mike Eagle share their reactions to her story. Please make sure you've heard the nearly two hour conversation between Georgia and Ahmir that published earlier this week.

  • Georgia Anne Muldrow
    2026/04/13

    Georgia Anne Muldrow has been making incredible music for over 20 years. The Grammy-nominated artist is kaleidoscopic in genre and style, telling Questlove that she experiences music through synesthesia. In this expansive two-hour conversation, Georgia reflects on the Jazz legends who shaped her upbringing, the influence of voices like X-Clan and Assata Shakur in guiding her toward a path of liberation, and the joy of life itself. She also shares how a night in Brooklyn nearly 20 years ago ultimately led to her latest album, Electrical Field of Love, created alongside the band Harriet Tubman. The longest conversation Georgia and Quest have ever had unfolds into a beautiful, free-form exploration of life, music, and the true courage behind artistry.

  • Flea
    2026/04/06

    Flea joins Questlove in-studio to discuss his debut trumpet album Honora, the long road back to his first musical love, and the rituals that ground his creativity and daily life. The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee unpacks the evolution of his artistry—from a Jazz-obsessed kid in upstate New York to a genre-curious fixture in the L.A. scene to a cornerstone of the Red Hot Chili Peppers—and how prayer, reading, stretching, and strict boundaries with technology shape his days.

    Flea also opens up about assembling the Honora band with Josh Johnson and Jeff Parker, his collaborations with Thom Yorke, his relationship with his wife Mel, and why intention and personal integrity matter more to him than chops or genre. This episode of the Questlove Show flows with deep musical nerdery and raw honesty about what it really takes to keep growing as an artist and a human being.
