He addresses many topics - what it means to be creative, how to find a
mentor and serve as an apprentice, the wisdom of maintaining a creative
network, coping with critics and the foibles of success, and the

like-minded artists including Ava DuVernay, David Byrne, Björk, and
others, Questlove speaks with the candor and enthusiasm that fans have
come to expect. Creative Questis many things - above all, a wise and
wide-ranging conversation around the eternal mystery of creativity.
