Rap Randomness...

Sometimes the brain needs less to think about and just grab some random records, CDs, MP3s, and the sort. With that in mind, this week is no concepts, no themes, just me (as well as a mix Plain Ole Bill) and a stack of varying Hip Hop releases....then we just see what happens. That's what it was last week and that's what it is this week as well. Lots of new stuff and the rest belongs to the 90s... Tune in and you're likely to hear from the likes of Non Phixion, Godfather Don, Sage Francis, Joell Ortiz, Method Man, Thirstin' Howl III, Ultramagnetic, Masai Bey, MC Ren, Skinnyman, Top Quality, Aesop Rock, and then some....

Beyond that, I'm to spend the holiday weekend with my daughter in Virginia and I'm pretty excited for that. Definitely having a "Pirates" weekend, she won't have it any other way....ha. I hope all of you have a great long weekend as well, stay out of "serious" trouble at the very least... ;)
