Jussumen that's on the mic!

Definition- supervillain: a killer who love children; one who is well skilled in destruction, as well as buildin'...

The night before the first Biden/Trump debate (read: debacle), Ghost and illy welcomed Ish, Ryan and Paul of the Black Delegates Podcast to the show.   You won't want to miss this one, as the hosts run the gamut of musical interests and political issues, taking time along the way to big up Angela Basset and anoint one individual the "Master P of Filmmaking".

You can find Black Delegates Podcast at theblackdelegatespod.podbean.com, and at their social media links below:

The crew is joined by Illcat - friend of Ghost and fellow Abyss Fam alum - to talk about his origins in the culture, his eventual foray into rhyming, lyricism and the writing process, and memories of the Abyss "netcee" collective.  All of this, of course leads into a larger discussion of his favorite artists, albums and overall appreciation of hip-hop, running the gamut from Run-DMC and Public Enemy to Bone Thugs and Eminem.   

From Sylk Smoov and Domino to St. Lunatics and Bits N Pieces, illy and Ghost chronicle hip-hop music, culture and nightlife in their hometown of St. Louis, from their own firsthand experiences and recollections of the scene.   (Editor's Note:  being that we've based this discussion on memories rather than research, mistakes are bound to happen and are unintentional.  We politely encourage anyone to correct or refute anything we've said.  -illy).  With far too much material to contain in one episode, future installments are in the pipeline.  Stay tuned!

"Wash ya fuckin hands, yall!"

Ghost and illy bring the Funk back for 2020 by first, giving their overall impressions of 2019's hip-hop offerings and highlighting their favorite album releases.  Spoiler alert:  They REALLY like Griselda.  *bdddddddddddddddttttt... boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-BOOM!!*

When Jay, illy and Ghost (then known as Rokmore, in a special guest spot) linked up in an early episode of Deathcakes to talk Wu-Tang, they had no idea at the time that the Keepers of the Funk podcast and the advent of No Jibba-Jabba FM were on the horizon.  They certainly didn't predict Wu-Tang: An American Saga to hit Hulu!  Now that all three scenarios have come to pass, the three hosts join up yet again in search of some Shaolin graffiti and to weigh in on the docu-drama (spoiler alert: they LOVE it!)

Outro Music: "Wu-Tang: 7th Chamber Pt. II"

To close out Summer 2019, Ghost and illy highlight three of this past season's best hip-hop album releases: "Bandana" by Freddie Gibbs & Madlib, "The Iliad is Dead and The Odyssey is Over" by Murs, and "May The Lord Watch", which celebrates the reunion of Big Pooh and Phonte as Little Brother.
