"I feel the pressure, under more scrutiny"

So like everyone else we couldn't get through a day without people bringing up Kanye so we had to tackle this major topic. Hip hop and mental health, how artist use music as their vehicle to get through their issues. Plus how we as fans use music to push through our own dark times.

This week we explore the art of story telling through concept albums in the hip hop universe. Strong concepts can unify an album through themes and stories alike. But if your concept isn't strong, Queen Mydas will call you on your bullshit.

We also explore which artists are the best at telling stories though lyrics and through musical production on standalone songs.

This week the Triplex tackles the difficult topic of problematic faves. Can you separate the art from the artist? Do you want to? Does liking R. Kelly's music make you a bad person?

Then we discuss what the future of hip hop might look like. We give our predictions of trends, sounds and themes we expect to see from the hip hop of tomorrow.

Let us know what you think! Can you listen to an artist with a questionable past? Do you have a vision of what the next trend in hip hop will be? Tell us below or find us on twitter at @FreshYongeP.

Back at it with another one! This time we focus on the ever important visuals: how can music videos and films enhance the artistry behind hip hop? Can a bad music video ruin your experience with a song? DO music videos matter?

We discuss our favourite music videos and musical films and how they helped or hurt in our love of the song.

*'The Healing Component' came out in 2016 but was recorded in 2014. LMK was still hype from ISTOLETHESOUL FM so his theory is a little shakey since '2014 Forest Hills Drive' came out first (and went platinum with no features)*

Dec 2014 Forest Hill Drive -> Mar 2015 TPAB -> Sept 2016 THC

And we back and we back and we back, even better than we were the last time! (you get it? S1E1 was about Chicago and this is a Chance reference for S2E1) Fresh off the high that was "ISTOLETHESOUL FM 001" your friendly neighbourhood Triplex try to convey the magic that transpired within those 24hrs (long live the chatroom!) We dug into the current trend of self love within hiphop and artist using love as inspiration.

Subtle flex but we think we know what makes a good show and we're going to tell you what has worked in past and what doesn't. In this episode (last one of season one!) We cover concert flow (don't make Blessthisbeast wait), home team support, solid DJ sets, solid openers, and making the most of the venue etc. We were at the screening for 6ix Rising and now that it's out everywhere we let y'all know our (FreshYonge)perspective about it.

Get a little good "herb" and get cozy with us on this episode. We talk about our favourite methods to levitate levitate levitate. We have special guest @insane_zain (on twitter) up and coming comedian (who just touched the Yuk Yuk's stage). We discuss go to songs to listen to while high and artist who sobered up and how there music has changed. Then we talk about collabs in hiphop and who our super group would be aka our hiphop Justice League.

Show some love on the socials!
