Rome Flynn Picks Lebron Over Jordan, & Reveals What He Learned from Viola Davis

Rome Flynn stopped by HOT 97 to talk to Nessa about his new single Heaven. He opened up about what inspired the emotional track, how he knows when he’s found “heaven” with someone, and whether fame or personal experience plays a role in his trust issues. He also reflected on his song Trust Issues, working with Fridayy on a full project and how vulnerability comes through in both his music and acting, and whether being an actor has made it harder for his music to shine. Rome also talked about playing Frank Lucas in Godfather of Harlem and what it was like acting alongside legends like Forest Whitaker and Viola Davis in How to Get Away With Murder. He shared what he's learned from those experiences and what it was like working with those legends. Plus, we got into sports—Rome won MVP at the All-Star Celebrity Game, shares his admiration for Lebron James and talks about the Indiana Pacers vs Oklahoma City Thunder NBA Finals. He wrapped up the interview by playing “Trust Issues: The Game” with Nessa, where he had to reveal whether certain relationship red flags were a dealbreaker or not.
