For BKR's first episode in three years, Incyte and Riggz get ABQ-based Neggs Benny to blow off the dust and break...no, obliterate the ice with several tracks, announcements, mead, and even a story about maybe seeing Cee-Lo Green in the crowd while bombing a performance! Skinny Slim (Shawn), The Gang (Braden) and their friend Kim are joined in studio over the phone by Thick Boy Anonymous (Josh) in the BeatKeep's cracker barrel of jokes. 

Check out their links and find their music at https://spareroomsounds.com/neggs-benny/

We sample a couple tracks off their new release 'F.I.I.K.', talk group origin stories and make some friends for life, duh.

Educator, rapper, producer and all-around wise-man K.DUTCH rolls through to share his new release TULAROSA. He discusses upcoming shows, evolving as an artist in his 40s and finding inspiration in old, unreleased songs for catharsis and therapy after life's traumas. Rigz and DJ Cap co-host.

Upcoming show: March 12 at Second Street Brewery's Rufina Taproom (No cover at BrewTap BoomBap help by Outstanding Citizens Collective)

Blasting into the Beatkeep with dusty samples, dirty lyrics and style as old school as Bedrock, STONEDAGE comes through to lay down an EXCLUSIVE PRE-RELEASE listening event with Incyte and DJ Cap of the Beatkeepers. We talk tracks, upcoming events and find out from Fred the best ways to get producer AUXAUDIO to fork over those fresh beats!

Includes DO SOMETHING and BOUNTY from Stoned Age's upcoming release on 02/29/2020, called STONEDAGE 3D.

This session we get local trans advocate and killer emcee Saratonin to tell us all about her bars, her experience with the local scene as she transitioned and much, much more. We explore her new release, STIR THE POT, available on Bandcamp and itunes, and discuss how her misgendering at a local Gamestop store thrust her into the spotlight and how she uses her infamy for the good of the trans community. This might be the most HIPHOP interview we've had yet! Dj Cap co-hosts, and Jackie sneaks in a few lines as a guest of honor, too. 

Listen to the episode for links, original tracks and more!

This episode we get out-of-towner Symatree (@symmatreedyr) of @gridsquident and @stereofiendsatx fame in with Phobia (@phobiatheprophet) and DJ Dash (@dash_915) for a super special session of bloopers, mistakes, assumptions and some real talk about being 'working emcees'. We sample some of Symatree's tracks (check out his soundcloud, symatree.bandcamp.com for more) while Incyte enjoys a morning off of work to host the 17th installment of BKR.

We get Modest from ABQ in to tell us about the Lofi Rapper lifestyle, getting picked up off of Soundcloud and what his craft means to him. DJ Cap and Rigz join Incyte as hosts.

After a short break, BKR returns with a catch-up session including Beatkeepers' members Incyte, Rigz and DJ CAP. We talk upcoming releases, shows and the recent return of Rigz from Indiana. We showcase some 'under development' new material, too.

IGOD swings through the Beatkeep on his way to drop DUSTY DIGITAL, out 1/27/19. Hear three tracks here FIRST! We joke, we laugh, we cry; it's Beatkeep Radio.

Wolfman of the OCC stops by to check out the Beatkeep and talk about some new work. We teach Josh new and current phrases the youth are using and we discuss the redeeming values of Viper's 'You'll Cowards Don't Even Smoke Crack'. 

You can see the Beatkeepers and Wolfman Jack with many others on December 22, 2018 at the Rufina St Taproom for 'Hip-Hop for the Holidays'. No Cover!
