The year 2005 was a lot of different things for different people. For hip-hop, it was a fairly transformative year, where both the South, and even the Midwest, really proved that they had something to say. They were two regions that cemented their place in hip-hop and forever changed it.

It also provided the soundtrack for a lot of parties that both Corey, and our guest Steve Tyson, aka Ellect (@ellect217), attended or even DJ’d.

It was senior year of High School for Beam, so he wasn’t going to any parties. That would be wrong and unethical.

Listen as Corey and Steve talk about the importance of 2005 and what they’re favorite songs were in hip-hop from that year. And also shout out to Young Buck, pictured above, simply because we think he needs one. Just listen to the episode and you’ll know why.
