Chicago's Joka No Joke is a self-proclaimed "rap therapist" with a brand-new mixtape called "Recess". 

In this episode of Music Therapy, we dig into the new-found freedom and playfulness Joka experienced while creating the album.   We touch on his creative process, tapping into his inner child, his "New Cool" philosophy, reflections and changes in his life through the pandemic,  how fatherhood has impacted Joka, and the importance of order.

We go deep but keep it moving!  It's refreshing and inspiring to hear how Joka's relationship with music has evolved over the years. 

Tracks featured in episode: "Reloaded" and "Order" by Joka No Joke.
