    Darius’ laugh is great! His music has made our lives better. What a gift. If I ever get a chance to meet him I only want to tell him thank you.

    Love Mr. Rucker, he addresses his ex-wife with such respect and love in his book and in interviews, it's beautiful. His mom was so pretty!

    I've watched many of his interview. This is about the most uncomfortable he has looked. Probably because of the stupid questions CM is asking. I became an instant fan shortly after CRV came out. DR was given flack for a black man fronting a white band.

      And that’s why I loved his anecdote about Woody Harrelson. Woody saved him from a dangerous rip current and has never wanted to talk about again. He did what he did for his friend, not the frontman for Hootie and the Blowfish.

    Great interview up to the point when you started talking about people that “look like us”. Way to keep the racism in journalism!

      NikonD3fan - Talking about racism doesn't perpetuate racism. Racists perpetuate racism. It needs to be called out until racists stop the their nonsense. It's that simple. ✌

    What a joke his friends ask him to take something? Because they was moving. His lawyers has to be paid very well to come up with a answer like this. Can make this chit up.

    he just continuously leads this sympathy driven "poor me" schtick like he's exempt from all things every other black person goes through....something about SOUTH CAROLINA (Tim Scott anyone?)

      Ask yourself that. You have no clue what it's like to walk in another man's shoes, so don't attempt. SMH.
