In this installment of Sound Advice, we’re talking to bbno$, who joins us from the road, calling in from his hot-pink, slimed-out, meme palace of a tour bus to talk about how his career has taken him from first uploading on SoundCloud in 2016 to building a global fanbase today. Throughout our candid conversation, the rapper, singer and songwriter talks about the importance of embracing cringe when it comes to promoting your music online, staying true to his creative roots over the years — including still collaborating with artists he came up with on SoundCloud, like Yung Gravy, So Loki and Y2K — and his secret sauce to building a sustainable career in music while navigating a chronically online world.

I wrote this when I was in a good mood. It's pretty upbeat for the most part. Enjoy.

Beneath a Desert Sky

The Ballad of Benjamin Lay co-written by historian Marcus Rediker and Dave Clinch was born out of the story of one of slavery’s earliest and most redoubtable opponents, The Fearless Benjamin Lay, The Quaker Dwarf Who Became the First Revolutionary Abolitionist and the title of Marcus's biography.

The song crystallises the extraordinary life of Benjamin Lay, shepherd, sailor, guerrilla activist, auto didact, author, vegan and educator. No doubt he was a difficult man, but he cannot be faulted for his implacable opposition to slavery. His actions paved the way for the 19th Century abolitionists in North America and in Britain. Sadly, he was expelled from the Quakers during his lifetime following his abolitionist activities

In 2018 he was returned to the Quaker fold, a poignant coda to the publication of Marcus Rediker's remarkable narrative.
