Mike Tyson and Symba share an impalpable chemistry

The podcast was entertaining from the get-go, the energy palpable. The chemistry between Tyson and Symba was very evident. Mike, known for his boxing prowess, showed us his less spoken-about doobie smoking persona, the pugilist seemed to not recall Symba and needed a reminder from the rapper himself. 

What’s up brother man, it’s a pleasure I don’t know how come everybody knows you I don’t know you.” Symba took it in his stride, pointing out that he is a new artist and they are just getting acquainted. A normally considered insult transformed into a subtle and humble gesture.

Symba proceeded to remind Tyson that a previous guest, fellow rapper Styles P, a member of the Hip Hop group Lox, spoke about the young artist on a previous episode of the podcast.

The trio consisting of co-host DJ Whoo Kid, then decided to take a walk down memory lane and watch an old clip from the podcast.
