We're back! We spun sick new music, we spoke with TRUTH Minista Paul Scott about the "liquid genocide" malt liquor, discussed Drake and the industry cosigning Kreayshawn based on numbers and Curren$y's Weekend At Burnies was on the chopping block for Blend It or Bump It. Loaded show this episode, listen now or download it for later!
We talked all hip-hop this episode. Everything from the validity of Odd Future to Common at the White House to Prodigy's audio book. And a WHOLE lot in between.
We kicked things off with the Hip Hop Fight Club's East Coast bracket, and you'll be surprised to find out who came out on top. We also got into the holiday spirit and discussed what if Santa was black, which led us into another racial conversation centered around the white bank robber who dressed up as a black dude while putting in his work. We put Clifford's latest release No Mercy on the choppoing block for this episode's Blend It or Bump It, sampled a domestic brew for the Stash Box, and chopped it up on a bunch of other topics to wrap up our last show for 2010.
Another hot joint off Statik's100 Proof (The Hangover ) album. The project is shaping up nicely, and you can cop it on Feb. 2nd. Props to Nation.

Shouts to creativity. You don't see a lot of dudes putting effort into their packaging anymore. This design was done by Brett Rollins who has designed for Ego Trip among others. The Stimulus Package drops on Feb. 16th. I might actually grab this based on the packaging alone, not to mention the music.
