RZA + The Best Year In Hip-Hop, New Music from Westside Gunn & Freddie Gibbs, Much More!
Description
What happens when the NBA season leaves us feeling underwhelmed, and the obsession with football pulls us away from the court? We kick off this episode with a lively chat about our mixed feelings on Milwaukee and Philly's performances while tipping our hats to Phoenix and Golden State for keeping things interesting. Our nostalgia takes center stage as we reminisce about the iconic opening scene of "Belly," sharing tales of our pre-club shenanigans inspired by the movie. It's a trip down memory lane filled with laughs and light-hearted banter.
Next, we dive into West Side Gun's latest release, "Still Praying," dissecting its place in the hip-hop landscape. Is it a masterstroke or just another entry in the Griselda repertoire? From beat selection to guest appearances, we explore what makes this project tick. The conversation naturally shifts to the indomitable Wu-Tang Clan, celebrating their monumental impact from "Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)" to GZA's "Liquid Swords." We revel in the rich tapestry of hip-hop legends, like Redman and Freddie Gibbs, acknowledging their enduring contributions.
And what would an episode be without some spicy commentary on the Hot Boys reunion and the intriguing dynamics between Drake and DeMar DeRozan? We wrap up with a nod to Quincy Jones's influence through iconic samples, and a thrilling play-by-play of an electrifying football face-off between Baltimore and Cincinnati. Join us for a rollercoaster of topics, a celebration of hip-hop's storied past, and a night of unforgettable sports moments.
