    Take It Personal (Ep 162: Easy Back It Up)
    Mar 12 2025
    No, this isn't a Grand Puba album spotlight, although he is certainly deserving of one. This is quick trip down memory lane, where the music wasn't as dark, the tracks had more bounce, more harmony and in some cases, more flavor. We're dusting off those Girbaud jeans, that favorite Tommy Hilfiger you wore twice-a-week to school and your fresh '92 Polo Sport jacket.
    We got the perfect music to accompany you on this journey from EPMD, Grand Puba, Positive K, Chubb Rock, Biz Markie, 3rd Bass, Black Sheep, Diamond D, Freestyle Fellowship, Boogie Down Productions, X-Clan and Del tha Funkee Homosapien.We want to know your favorite early '90s hip-hop fashion, so hit the comment section with yours!

    Take It Personal (Ep 158: Have You Heard? II)
    Dec 24 2024
    Most of you failed miserably with our last Have You Heard episode, so we're running it back to close-out 2024.
    This show has 28 tracks, featuring bootlegs, b-sides, deep album cuts and remixes. Keep count of each song you've heard before. Don't count the original versions, just the ones you hear on this episode.
    We're going on the honor system and there's no honor in being a crumb bum. Keep score at home and then return to our episode post on Instagram or Facebook and share with us how many you've heard before.
    You know we had to show some Rickey love on this jawn, so it made sense to drop this episode on 12/24/24 and peace to Oakland indie label ABB on the logo flip. We also snuck in some love for a few fallen soldiers this year like Bo$$, Ka, Saafir and Chino XL on this episode.
    Point Levels: 28 = Supreme Clientele 25 = Don’t Sweat The Technique 20 = Dah Shinin 15 = No Need For Alarm 10 = Slaughtahouse 5 = Stankonia
