Description
Call Out Culture is a podcast about rap music hosted by Alaska, Curly Castro and Zilla Rocca - three long time practitioners and lifetime fans. These dudes know what the hell they are talking about. Every episode is a deep dive into an artist or a concept. With close to 50 years of artistry and 70 years of fandom combined in the three hosts, it is safe to say, that you are going to get perspectives that you will not find in other podcasts about the genre.

First time guests DJ Jon Doe and Eddie Meeks of Southern Vangard Radio swing by to talk about their history with Southern radio, creating weekly mixshows and rap podcasts for close to a decade straight, and their new book outlining their longstanding careers! Plus we talk Burlington Coat Factory, downtown Atlanta looking like "The Walking Dead" during COVID, hanging at Erick Sermon's rim shop (to Castro's delight), and more!

A truly rambunctious bass-heavy album from an unlikely trio of Apathy, Ryu of Styles of Beyond, and producer Scoop DeVille, "Uzi Does It" from Get Busy Committee is a record you need to play with the windows down, the low end cranked up, and no kids remotely within range!
