Exclusive Prodigy Interview

Prodigy who is currently serving a 3 1/2 year bid recorded this interview (conducted by his wife) exclusively for Philaflava.com. The questions asked came from the members of Philaflava.

Prodigy has the ability to write blogs for Vibe but he does not have the ability to talk to many people over the phone. We've all been a fan of his blogs for a minute, but now we finally get a chance to hear what he really has to say (in audio). Both Prodigy and his wife were kind enough to make this happen so without further ado here it is.
