he passing of Kobe Bryant have gutted so many of us. The last few days have been joyless and while we recorded this show prior to his death, we felt a last minute edit was in necessary to properly pay respects.

On Episode 58, we continue with Part 2 our Homage to Collabos special. We’re joined by one of the greatest lyricists to bless the mic, Ras Kass. We discuss collaborating with Xzibit, DJ Premier, Dr. Dre and Saafir. We learn about his relationship with Coolio and the initial concerns with appearing on Chino XL’s Riiot. We find out 2Pac once requested 50 tickets to his show and learned what happened with The Horseman.

We got music by Big L, Tha Alkaholiks. Mic Geronimo, Fat Joe, Lord Finesse, Mobb Deep, DMX, Noreaga, The Roots, Organized Konfusion, Ras Kass and we show extra love to The Abstract.

RIP Kobe
