This week, OIP steps into another dimension with multi Grammy-award winning producer and creative dynamo, Reginald “Syience” Perry. He talks about his roots in Flint, Michigan and the remarkable, self-willed leap that led him to NY and - in less than a year - to collaborations with artists such as Jay-Z, Beyoncé, John Legend and Mary J Blige. Syience’s true calling though, as he tells Tom and Drea, came in the form of myriad dreams directing him towards a new way of story-telling - an epic collision of music, fiction and technology or what he calls his “universe in a box”. He talks about channeling this transcendental creative flow into his ambitious 10-year project, Radio Flyer, returning the power of imagination to education and reclaiming true, authentic connections. And if this sounds a little mind-blowing - it is … Listen now.
