Welcome back to another episode of Decoding 40. Vin is about to take the world by storm with his latest product in his Coquito empire--Coquito ice cream.  L.O runs into two crackheads smoking at his subway stop and poses a question to the crew on when to say something when you see something. Mack and his family are settling into their new home and his daughter is crawling everywhere which means it's time to babyproof EVERYTHING. Rick is back on the road and wonders why his hotel room temperature is set to the deep freeze. 

This week we are honored to talk with the creators of the Lyricist Lounge, Danny Castro and Anthony Marshall.  It's been 30 years since it all started in a studio apartment on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. The innovators share stories on how they met and went on to create one of the dopest hip-hop institutions in the world. We also talk about the future of the Lyricist Lounge and how they plan to expand the brand internationally and into the digital age with NFTs and bitcoin currency.  This dynamic duo stands poised to maintain an indelible influence on Hip Hop for a long time.

This and so much more on the latest episode of Decoding40.
