In the second part of Torae’s interview with the good folks of TheWellVersed, he talks Heart Failure, not being on BET and the one song that embodies his career.

TWV: If you had to do an interview but you couldn’t speak, and you had to pick out one song that embodies who you are, what would it be?

Torae: Wow, that’s the greatest question ever. One song? That’s difficult. I think I’m going to go with “Tayler Made,” which is a song from Daily Conversation with me telling a story to my daughter about music. She’s actually on it and does the hook. When it’s all said and done that’s me, I’m just a dude who loves music, life, and my kids. My son isn’t on the record unfortunately, but I only had one song to pick! I’m telling her she’s part of the reason why I do this. I want her to have a better life. At the end of the song I said whatever you want to do with your life, if you want to be a wife, pursue your career, be a student, an emcee, whatever, just make sure you give it your all. It leads into her coming into the booth and being on the song with me. It’s one of my favorite joints. People love it. I was in Germany and did my set, and a guy said, “Why didn’t you do ‘Tayler Made’?” It blew my mind for so many reasons because it’s such an obscure album track. It means a lot to me, but I didn’t feel like it meant as much to others. But it really touched so many people when it came out. I wanted to do it just to make sure I did something to represent my daughter and my love of my kids.

In the first part of Torae’s interview with the good folks of TheWellVersed, the Coney Island bomber breaks down some of his lyrics.

TWV: “When I was eleven started to chase after it, it took seventeen long years later to catch the shit, and by the time that I got it, it felt like the best years was far behind it, I done witnessed the high heights, the plummets.” (Off “Crashing Down” from Double Barrel)

Torae: I said when I was eleven, and for the sake of rhyming and making things fit I said eleven and seventeen, but I’ve been rapping since I was a kid. Professionally, or seriously doing demos and being in the studio, around eleven or twelve. I said it took seventeen years because by the time I started getting notoriety I was already 27 or 28-years-old. By the time I got in, it felt like the best years were far behind it. The game has changed so much.

I just finished talking to Rah Digga and she was telling me how she loves to write when she’s in the studio. I said I like to get the beat, write, then go to the studio. She comes from the school of sitting in the studio for hours, blowing weed and having parties on Sylvia Rhone’s budget. She can do that. I was paying for studio time and every second counted. When I got to the door I wanted the beat lined up so I could go in there and rap. I’m having fun with it, and it’s a blessing to be in the business and be part of music. But all my Hip Hop homies tell me about the golden era.
