Sweet Jesus Radio

My good friend and gifted emcee, Def-i and his touring brethren Watzreal and J-Scribe join me to talk about the Third Eye Wide Tour, how we met, his background, his experience with the Vans Warped Tour, healthy eating on the road, the Art of Rap concert/Prodigy’s final performance, his encounter with Shia LaBeouf, rippin’ mics on the Sway in the Morning radio show, his Tour Life video, tour stories and his new album Arrow-Rhymanics. The trio, along with St. Nobody and Brooks, set the mic ablaze with unforgettable a cappellas and I pat myself on the back for drunkenly spelling “onomatopoeia”.

Trip Hop recording artist, Meganoke joins Dee and I to talk about her adventures since her first appearance on Sweet Jesus Radio last year including an East Coast run and a trip to Canada. Dee recaps recent shows she attended such Shakewell/Ramirez/Germ, Aaron Cohen and Gavlyn. I break down UFC 214 – Jones vs Cormier. We answer listener questions like “What keeps the road interesting for you?”, “What do you think about overrated artists such as Kendrick Lamar?” and “Why don’t you do a podcast from one of my Tuesday shows???”. Dee also tells us about her stint on the high school wrestling team (lol).

Listen to my bro, Anguelo, talk about growing up in San Francisco, attending gay pride parades and Dead Kennedys concerts at the age of 7 and wearing cute sailor suits. Anguelo shares the story about him catching the skating bug at the Steve Caballero/Kevin Harris demo (here in El Paso), doing “speed” at the age of 13, debaucherous Coronado High School partying, becoming a “full blown alcoholic” at 17 and multiple Juarez adventures such as spending time in a Juarez jail after a drunken driving car accident. He talks about dying after his first time shooting heroin, speed balling, his “rock bottom moment”, his time spent in “rehab” and his recovery. Sorry for the A/C noise!

Dee, Venus and I recap June and July goings-on such as my reaction to the passing of the legendary Prodigy, the R.A. The Rugged Man show controversy, my birthday shenanigans, grocery store drama, and “adventures in customer service”. Venus figures out what “clouttt” is. We discuss girls that complain about receiving “aaallll these friend requests” and “stage 5 clingers”. I also say “it’s not the size of the boat but the motion of the Frank Ocean”.

Recording artist, A. Billi Free joins me to talk about her childhood in Chicago, her influences, the transdimensional world of Akela Flats (NM), her many talents, “bum fights” and pro-salad raps. Her cohort and beatsmith, Latenight Loki, discusses his production style, his upcoming project with Billi and skate park bullies. Also, I nearly experience a cardiac event.

My good friend, Jessica recounts her many adventures and experiences abroad including visiting Europe as a teen, working and living by the beach in Italy, watching Maceo Plex play in Venice on New Year’s Eve 2016, dealing with “aggressive” people in Morocco, Japanese culture and going to Dublin, Ireland to see Disclosure. She talks about buying a house at 22, helping run her father’s company, writing for a local publication and writing manuals for “war vehicles”. We also guzzle bomb wine called Menage a Trois on episode 69, no less.

Artist/clothing designer/entrepreneur, Tre talks about growing up in Ghana, selling t-shirts that he painted on at the age of ten, coming to America (rimshot), the origins of and meaning behind the name Death By Society, his love of skating and meeting one of his favorite rap groups, Suicideboys. We discuss what he loves about El Paso and the time he killed an aggressive cobra at the age of seven. We address multiple Facebook friend suggested topics including me being “cold”. Also, I inhale a fly.

Listen to Louie AKA Woar2 talk about catching the Hip Hop “bug”, getting kicked in the face with a steel-toe boot, his introduction to “graff” and his mother’s passing. We discuss doing “what you love” vs what “pays the bills” and being an "accountable", "assertive" and "professional" artist. He shares the stories of how he met the other members of what became the Hip Hop group, Faceless and the time a fellow rapper from Fresno performed knife tricks for him while wearing a wolf costume. We take to Facebook to answer questions from his fan and to find out the status of the song for Ramon Silva’s album. We also spit some a cappellas and discuss the potential benefits of death and suicide.

I sit down with Hip Hop veteran/emcee/beatsmith/entrepreneur, Dos, to talk about his checkered youth, his “Hip Hop history”, squashing beefs and the “local celebrity” mentality. He shares father and husband stories and the romantical story of how he proposed to his wife. We also discuss bowel and bladder control or lack thereof and more!
