    Really great interview. I liked how the interviewer and Rufus were able to contextualise Rufus' work in the past, today and with a view to the future in just a few minutes.

    Honestly I think the timing of his coming-out was not ideal for his career. The vast majority of world were not ready for that then. He is so underrated till this day, because of that imo.

    "to succeed"? Whatever...he was hardly the first...Ask Holly Near.

    One of the first? Hardly. He was decades behind.
