  • Episode 17: For The (Cancel) Culture

    In this episode, Lo tapped in with two special ladies to take their pulse on the complicated relationship between entertainers and the highly publicized accusations of abuse and sexual assault against them.  Dopest veteran TT and Lo's baby sis Hollie didn't hesitate to remind us that we are as just as flawed as our artists. However,  don't get it twisted, they're not freeing R. Kelly from the closet.   No political correctness and pandering to the woke police.   Strictly speaking from their own personal experience.  It was honest, it was enlightening and it was DOPE!  We apologize for the poor audio quality.  We're still working out this virtual guest thing so bear with us and we promise there is more high-quality content on its way.

  • Episode 16: The Re-launch, HBD!

    I gifted myself something this year for my birthday. I've been thinking about it for a very long time so I said F it, there's no time like the present to get back into this podcasting thing.  We originally launched this podcast in May 2019. Had a good little run. Worked out some kinks, took a few hiatus (apparently hiatuses is not a word), stopped completely when COVID hit.  Now we're back.  Trying a different format where all guests are remote since COVID is still out here running rampant.  I'm the host, my friends are the guests.  Still interesting topics around hip hop, the culture, and anything else we feel like discussing. No format, just great conversations.  Enjoy!

On this episode, Lo and Rocco discuss one of the culture's hottest trending topics of the week.  Instead of firing off names on their own lists, they touched a little on how a top list should be constructed. Also, whats an A&R and what do they do?  Do labels or artist need them?  Drake, Lil Durk, YBN Cordae, BJ The Chicago Kid and Chance had new projects drop in the last two weeks.  Want an honest opinion?  Push Pl

  • Episode 9: We Just Got Real
    On this episode Dopest got REAL.  Nah seriously that's the name of the special guest host this week.  Real dropped in to help the crew breakdown 6 albums that were released in the past couple of weeks like the street banger, Flygod Is An Awesome God, from Westside Gunn and an unexpectedly soulful "Collaborations" album from Ed Sheeran. Yes, Ed Sheeran.  As if that didn't keep them busy enough, they attempted to rank the top 5 record labels in hip hop history.  Lets just say they put in a good effort.

    Much respect goes out to the pioneers from the Big Apple but it’s been a long time since then and boy has this beautiful seed grown and sprouted branches that stretch across the entire globe. But to find some of hip-hops most potent spitters there is no need to travel very far. On this episode we match NY’s finest emcees up with their close cousins just a short car ride away in Philadelphia. Plus we touch on the new releases from Chris Brown, Daniel Caesar and Mustard. Push Play.

You might call me an "old head". Stuck in the '90s. WASHED! But I lived through (arguably) the best era of hip hop since its inception in the mid 70's. I just want the mumble rappers to open their…
