Sahtyre Talks Familial Drug Addiction, Starting Kindergarten at Age 3, the Constant Quest For Validation and Performs “Skeletons” Live In Studio

I’ve known Sahtyre for almost a decade now. We’ve never been close. If anything there’s always been a strange tension between us. Because of that learning about his background during our discussion was a bit of a mind fuck.

His childhood was tumultuous to say the least. While I’d heard murmurs about his upbringing, hearing the extent of his family’s dark moments directly from the source was moving. We came to realize our past differences probably stem from similarities in our character. This was a very open and cathartic conversation that we waited far too long to have.

Hear us talk about his drug addled early family life, starting kindergarten at age 3, and our mutual textbook need for validation.
