Today on A Waste of Time with ItsTheReal, we welcomed one of the co-founders of Pro Era, CJ Fly, to the Upper West Side! We talked about cutting class to record songs in the school auditorium, forming Pro Era, learning to smoke from Capital Steez, letting Joey Bada$$ lead the way for the crew, linking up with Jonny Shipes and joining the Smoker's Club Tour, sharing a tour bus with Fat Trel, befriending Ab Soul, and much more. We also talk about the devastating loss of Steez, what's going on with his music, and how all of the Pro Era guys have moved forward, while never forgetting their friend's legacy. All that, plus touring around the world, tripping off LSD, and of course, CJ's brand new album Flytrap!<br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
