Back story: I was hit with a bad case of insomnia this week so by the time I sat with Eric I was going on 1 hours worth of sleep in 5 days. Add to the fact that in person, Eric's presence is intimidating. I've never met anyone more serious than Eric B. With that said, you'll pick up on the nervousness in my voice.

Eric takes us back to the heart of Golden Age Hip Hop and into the future. A fascinating man. A fascinating story.

Internets, we present to you the Eric B episode.

Mogul is a show about hip hop’s most iconic moments, told by the people who lived them. Season 2 dives into the birth of southern hip hop. It all started in Miami with the 2 Live Crew, a group that took hip hop and made it faster, harder, and nastier than anything anyone had heard before. But in 1990 their music was declared legally obscene, and what followed is known today as the most controversial trial in the history of hip hop. This group, this city and this trial changed the course of music history as we know it. Mogul Season 2 features exclusive interviews with Miami legends like Trick Daddy, Rick Ross, Trina, Luke Campbell, Brother Marquis, Mr. Mixx, Walshy Fire, and more.

Mogul Season 2 Preview

This episode of Mogul is a tribute to the life and career of Reggie Ossé, who hosted the first season of Mogul. A couple of months after completing the show Reggie was diagnosed with colon cancer and he passed away in December of 2017. We’re going to tell you Reggie’s story — His early days growing up a hip-hop head in Brooklyn, his time as a lawyer representing legendary artists like Jay-Z and Dame Dash, and his reinvention as Combat Jack, hip hop’s flagship podcaster.

Mogul: The Life and Times of Reggie Ossé

Internets! This latest episode of Talkitecture features the next vanguard and cultural visionaries. Coodie and Chike are a filmmaking team who have been quietly defining how we see our HipHop heroes for more than a decade.

Their work with KanYe West inspired my efforts in film and video development. I hope this discussion inspires you to find your own path to reshaping the narrative. For the culture is just a cliche with 99% of the people who speak it but not these brothers. We are talking and we talking...
