Ep. 143: Songs of the Week - From Rick James & Jodeci to Drake & DMX
Description
On this week's episode, Guttzy Guttz and DJ Laz Vagez take a trip down memory lane with a massive "Songs of the Week" segment. The guys spin a mix of timeless R&B, classic hip-hop, and some Toronto essentials, sharing personal stories and hilarious commentary along the way.
They kick things off with R&B and funk classics from Rick James, Billy Ocean, Kool & The Gang, New Edition, and Evelyn "Champagne" King. The vibes continue with a deep dive into the legendary Jodeci catalog, covering everything from "Come and Talk to Me" to "Freek'n You".
The energy shifts to hip-hop as they revisit bangers from The Notorious B.I.G., Mase, and Case , leading into a discussion about Prince's iconic "When Doves Cry". The hosts also get into heavier tracks from DMX and Jay-Z and debate the street code ethics of 50 Cent's early music.
Of course, it wouldn't be a Toronto show without some hometown love. The episode features a lengthy segment dedicated to Toronto artists, including tracks from Drake, Da Crook, Juice and King Cruff.
Tune in for a journey through the songs that shaped the culture and discover some new local favorites.
