We dive into the significant changes that would begin to shape the most formative years of his transition from childhood into adulthood and his relentless pursuit into the world of music.

2020/01/22

Juicy the Emissary and I run through a myriad of Texas rap history and obscure K-Mart tales. You see, on Thanksgiving 1989, Kmart employee and audio enthusiast Mark Davis wandered behind the customer service desk to check out the store’s sound system, which looped muzak and top 40 plus ads and announcements under the banner of “KMRT, The Kmart Radio Network.” In September 2015, Davis uploaded the tapes to the internet with the humble intention of preserving them. But within a few weeks he became an

We also tackle issues such as ex-HipNOTT label owner Kevin Nottingham coming out as a Trump supporter. This was a man that infiltrated the Hip Hop community to its core and we let him in & gave him the keys to our

New Mexico-based multi-instrumentalist Miles Bonny is a guy that contributes to a creative feeling, an artistic feeling, a natural sense of creating; it's a worthy thing to have an interest in being creative and not just go to their jobs and fulfilling someone else's agenda. As a trumpeter, vocalist, producer, dj and community empowerment worker his explorations in social issues and world cultures has taken him on numerous adventures so we chat about genealogy, social work, random excursions

Lofi returns in another episode of the podcast, emerging from the great swamp of New Jersey. Dr.Doppler and I chat about his recent experiments, ranging from his new beat tape “FLIPS & BUMPS” to Ray Gun Tony to creating music in his dorm room so many years ago. In the shadow of the lo-fi hip-hop backlash, a number of artists are trying to bring shape and story back to downtempo music. So we continue the narrative as we then dive into other worldly sound theories, sampling disco r&b from the 70s, and

My guest this week is Stan “Substantial” Robinson, someone who I've been a fan of for many years.

Eligh is my special guest this week. He is a rapper and producer from Los Angeles, California and one half of the infamous, "The Grouch & Eligh". We chat about his evolution of an artist that follows his journey through tales of Living Legends to Grand Tapestry. Rap has gone global but there's still very few instances where the realms of rap and world music meet. So with that said, we dive into the genre bending music he is making, as well as his love of Bruce Springsteen, and the various sources of

This week I sit down with the other half of Don't Sleep Records co-founder, Awon. There is a lot of confusion around what it means exactly to be a true independent artist. So we take a deep dive into the logistic in running a grassroots label, the ins and outs of business, and the many things that can affect it. We also talk about growing up on the East Coast, from tales of incarceration to discussions around the prison industrial complex and how it effected the black first-generation wealth

Acclaimed bombshell songstress Julia Haltigan joins me this week on the podcast. We discuss her history growing up in New York, as well as her parents experiencing life there in the 70s. Back then it was referred to as Fear City, and they distributed a pamphlet, meant for tourists who wanted to avoid danger during their visit to the big city. To a current-day New Yorker, its rules for safe conduct are laughable and it became a clear sense of what was lost as New York left behind one set of

Inspired by the Golden Age Era of Hip Hop, he began as a pianist with a jazz education, and also learnt drums along the way. Not only will you recognize his style with his mellow keys but his style can be defined as modern conscious music with a blend of soul. So having the opportunity to sit down with him was a real

Another member of Mutant Academy swings by the podcast! When a young Ewonee decided to borrow his father's copy of "It Was Written", he had no idea how it would transform the rest of his life. Entranced by what he had heard, he eventually began collecting instruments and flipping vinyl records, developing his own brand of dusty, fashionably off kilter hip-hop in the process. Though he was immediately intrigued by the process of beatmaking, there were many growing pains. From a young boy to post high
