On today’s episode of #TRIBEGOALS, I catch up with D-Nice in between soundchecks for his performance with Mary J Blige at the Apollo Theater. When we think back to the dark days of the pandemic there were a number of constants that we looked forward to, thanking our healthcare workers at 7pm, embracing hobbies that we didn’t know that we had and heading to the biggest global couch party that happened every night for hours on end with Club Quarantine! In those moments we could connect with friends, enjoy amazing music and see some of the biggest celebs in the room from Michelle Obama, Rihanna, Madonna, Nile Rodgers and more!

D-Nice rocked it out and shared his sense and need for a community with us while we navigated those uncertain times. 20 months later, he’s still keeping us connected virtually and in person. As the cover of our OCT ISSUE #70, we talk about his legendary career that started as a founding member of Boogie Down Productions with the late Scott La Rock and KRS-One, we talk about how he came up with Club Quarantine and its evolution from being the party to attend, as an amplifier for initiatives he is passionate about to taking it on the road to the Hollywood Bowl and what he has in store for the Club Quarantine Fest taking place in 2022 in LA. We also talk about the brand, how he picks his projects, the full circle moments that music has created in his life and maintaining the power of connection within this community.
