Once again we find ourselves mourning one of our heroes. This is the first episode we've recorded since hip-hop icon Biz Markie passed away over the weekend. Biz's music and presence is extremely important to us and we will deeply miss his presence here on Earth. RIP Marcel "Biz Markie" Hall, a unique, funny, and deeply funky person who brought entertainment to so many. Next up we have a great interview with Kurupt. We talk about Death Row, the Dogg Pound, SOS Band, his best known work, his cannabis line, the long-awaited HRSMN project and so much more. DBRP is a proud part of the Stony Island Audio podcast network.
