D is interviewed by Hall on The Arsenio Hall Show. They talk about what he’s doing to keep artists from losing hip hop’s integrity, what he writes about now in his music and how he feels about hip hop.

D discusses current rap culture and his newest album, The Black in Man, in this interview for PBS.
