Such a rare combination of youth and wisdom, the 19-year old Raury sat down with our very own Tracy G after giving the Soundset fans a performance to remember. That high energy live show has been perfected on the road from Minneapolis to France, where he had one of his most embarrassing moments but at the same time giving him an opportunity to experience different situations and learned how to adapt quickly still leaving fans with a great impression.

But, isn’t that like saying no cops are good because of the ones who use their power to the extreme taking innocent lives even on camera? Hmm…
