We're halfway through season five, and today we're joined by prolific hip hop journalist Regina Cho, known for her work with Billboard, Genius, Hot 97, and more. 

Cho delivers with two local NYC artists — an explosive young lyricist named Asoh Black! & a smooth, subtle vocalist named Jus.

We discuss up-and-coming Chicago wordsmith Brittney Carter, left field England five piece AlaskaAlaska, as well as the track "Road Safety," a piercingly sweet offering from Boston-based Cehryl.

Amongst much more.
