September 29, 2021 "Does Talent Matter in the Social Media Era?" | S1 Ep. 37
On this episode: EC is joined by Philly artist, King Shampz, for another Hip Hop Cloverleaf interview. Before getting into his own come up, the guys have a conversation revolved around the social media era in hip hop. How different is this era in hip hop than previous eras that didn't have the internet? Is it easier to make it today because of social media? Or is it harder because of the over-saturation of creatives? EC and company discuss some of the well-established artists today that have gotten to where they are today precisely because of social media. To cap off the show, King Shampz speaks on his experience with creating music and gives us an insight into his record label, Dead Wrong Records, along with their latest collaborative album, Dawn of the Dead. Tap in!

September 15, 2021 "Bone Thugs vs. Wu Tang" | S1 Ep.35
Hip Hop has come a long way. We have seen many iconic groups pick up mics and deliver in a way we've never seen before. From Slum Village, Little Brother, Naughty By Nature, Three 6 Mafia, The Lox, Outkast (although a duo), plus way more: many of them left an everlasting impact on the game. Two of those groups were also Bone Thugs-N-Harmony and The Wu Tang Clan. On this episode, EC features a special guest to argue which of these 2 iconic groups were and are more impactful to Hip Hop. To end the show, special guest, Matteo Urella, is interviewed by EC. Matteo is a Hip Hop / Martial Artist, Journalist and Hip Hop enthusiast who has published The Oral History of Bone Thugs-n-Harmony and Deep In The Dark With The Art; an art book featuring some of the cover artists for the Wu, with 100% of the profits going to More Than Words out of Boston, MA – a Boston-based nonprofit bookstore for at-risk youth. Tune in!

September 08, 2021 "Longevity" | S1 Ep. 34
Making it to the big stages as a hip hop artist is no easy task. A lot of artists catch a hit and have a hard time reaching those same heights again. On the other hand, what about those ones that manage to get to the top and stay there for years and years? What does it take to stay in the rap game for that long? On this episode EC is joined by hip hop artist, Chase Hill. The boys give their flowers to some of the most long and lustrous careers. From legends that are 15+ years in the game to ones who's careers were cut short and still left an imprint. To end the show, EC interviews Chase and digs into his own journey as a hip hop artist and podcaster.

There is an art to rolling out a new album release. We have seen many creative ways that artists go about rolling out a new album. Everything from: releasing promotional singles and videos; releasing merch; hosting album-listening parties; creating social media campaigns.
