Black Dave is a musician, producer, rapper, visual artist, anime and streetwear aficionado, and web3 pioneer who continues to push the bounds of what artists can do in those still nascent sandbox of music meets the blockchain.

His latest experiment was launching the Black Dave token, which is an investment in his ideas, and he's very explicit that it's not a guarantee and there’s no financial return. It’s about ideas – a refreshingly honest project in what’s becoming a very financialized music and web3 space.

We talked more about the token and much more, grounding the conversation is some simple gratitude for life that’s all about, to quote the great William DeVaughn, just being thankful for what you got.
