Ah, after a week of cold and snow in April we actually had some
decent weather today. Hopefully that holds moving forward. On the
radio tip, the last four weeks of exploring Hip Hop's radio history
made me think about what the single biggest impact it has had on me
over the years; introducing me to new artists and music. In honor of
that I decided to a show of all pretty much brand new stuff and/or a
few things semi-new that might have got slept on. This the first time
I think I've ever done a show of all new music so if that means
anything to anybody, there you go...ha.
This week you'll hear new music from the likes of Capital D,
Evidence, Brother Ali, I Self Devine, High Priest, O.C., Wax Tailor,
Freestyle Professors,
Masai Bey, Memphis Bleek, A.G., Iomos Marad, Skyzoo, Raydar Ellis,
Big Daddy Kane, The Genius, etc....
Last week was the fourth and final edition to the radio tribute that
focused on Stretch and Bobitto, Wake Up Show, and The Joint.
