THISENT.com presents the 30TH Episode of THIS Podcast hosted by Mr. Joe Walker!

It’s amazing how quickly time passes. Here in this episode we’re going to do a little time traveling, taking a trip back to 2010 for an interview I conducted with hip-hop artists Skyzoo and Illmind that was previously unreleased.

I’ve been gradually building up to this moment starting with Skyzoo’s feature in our “GOOD QUESTION” column, then in our kindness column “Shining Example”, and finally an interview in Episode 14 of THIS Podcast.

During our conversation it’s mentioned that he and I hadn’t spoken in 10 years, the last time being when I talked with him and producer Illmind about their Live from the Tape Deck album.

We’re paying off that buildup by giving you that unreleased interview in its entirety! In it we discuss Ice Cube’s 20-year solo career, generational conflict in urban music, and being the narrator of your life.

Have fun time traveling with us and thank you for continuing to support THISENT.com and THIS Podcast!

I took a stroll to ease my mind of all the tension in the world. Unplanned, the discussion here gets a little dark.

The ray of light, though, is me sharing R&B/hip-hop duo RND’s remake of Marvin Gaye’s “What’s Going On”.

While strolling on a beautiful night I reflect on Hip Hop’s great MC/Producer duos. This makes me recount the night I met DJ Premier at A3C in Atlanta.

My entire train of thought here was inspired by XrossRoads (Supa Emcee and Baby Paul) and their single “Rise” featuring Guilty Simpson - which you’ll hear before the end of this walk.
