Who knew the biggest rapper out got his game from Paul Heyman?

A Plus and MC return on the latest Recut Gems with an update on each other's summer watches since sports -- um, since the NBA Finals ended last month. One is watching one of the most hated men in 2000s wrestling, while the other completely regrets diving into the world of the extreme! Hear the first opinions from MC's 1996 ECW rabbit hole, A Plus' A1 experience at the It's All a Blur Tour and the APB sent out for the legendary Lex Luger.

Almost twenty years later, this classic illustrates the sign of the times like none other.

This month's ThrowBLKs features our first alternative retrospective: Green Day's 2004 resurgence, American Idiot. As the country was involved in a fairly unpopular war, artists rose to use their platform throughout all genres to share their opinions. Unlike Eminem and the Dixie Chicks, Green Day chose one of the most theatric ways possible to get their message across. Hear J5, Josh Peas and MC look back at the landscape of a Post-9/11 America, the introduction to rock music in black homes and a full-length rundown of the entire album.
