Whattup doe!

It’s Episode 126 of Baltimore County Forever Podcast. The Band, Norm and Stacey, are back. This week’s episode starts with current events in the news: our updates on the quarantine including KAT’s mom passing away from the virus, the recent announcement that outside will open back up on May 1st, and how our kids are enjoying the quarantine. Then we cover hip-hop news: Westside Gunn’s new album, hip-hop history moments for the week, and even Jeezy’s grocery dancing video.

Next is this week’s playlist. Considering Nipsey’s death anniversary just passed, his song “Succa Proof” is on the list. Norm talks about what he learned from Nip and Stacey talks about his philanthropic legacy vs. his musical legacy.

“Brown Skin Girl” by Beyonce is also on the list, and we discuss the song’s black skin appreciation message. We compare it to the colorism covered in the Spike Lee joint “School Daze,” talk about the brown paper bag test, and Stacey tells me about her experience with colorism.

Then, we have Westside Gunn’s “Ric Martel,” and we discuss Griselda‘s gritty 90s sound. We then pick which 90s/00s label - Def Jam, Rocafella, G Unit, Shady, Cash Money, and Ruff Ryders - that each member of Griselda would fit with & dominate.

Tune in for these topics plus more!!!
