This week is dedicated to our trip down to Ontario, California recently for The Happiness of Pursuit Festival, which focises on lyrical, classic, and underground hip-hop. We spent the day at the festival recording the first half of this episode "backstage" and caught up with some of the dopest MCs working today.
**WARNING** the sound here is rough. We were in a tent about 10 feet from the main festival stage, and the music is audible in the background, as is the crowd and the various folks walking by our table, us chatting off mic at times, etc. It was a chaotic environment, but we feel that's part of the charm of this special episode. If you are sensitive about audio on podcasts, feel free to skip to the 38 minute mark where we are back in the studio.
This episode features live performance audio and interviews with our friends Open Mike Eagle and Video Dave, the fire spitting young MC A.F.R.O., Bay Area battle MC and recording artist Locksmith, and the absolute legend Suga Free. We also have a great chat with recording artist and THOP Fest founder 60 East.
Dad Bod Rap Pod hosts Nate LeBlanc, David Ma and Demone Carter analyze the festival in real time, recount our experiences with some of the featured acts, and generally try to herd the cats to create a hybrid live pod and studio show reflecting on the experience. DBRP is a proud part of the Stony Island Audio network, which for a brief moment was a real place, a folding table in the Inland Empire, but is mostly a state of mind.
