June 25, 2022 01:57 - 24 minutes - 55.9 MB

This... This is a conversation piece for sure. The word Swarthy clearly means dark skinned and is an old timey word that has lost its usage. But way back in the day I mean Pre Civil War this word was used to describe many men and women. In fact it wasn't an insult but more like distinction device to separate Black people who were of European descent and slaves from Africa. As time has moved on. almost all of the people who were once labeled as swarthy aren't anymore. One reason is because Am...

Been out here on some Public Enemy stuff hard as of late. This is me being on my soapbox talking about Memorial Day and how Black people not only started it but should embrace it.

May 27, 2022 16:45 - 28 minutes - 66.2 MB

As the stories broke these last two days about the school shooting in Texas I thought of two Public Enemy songs. I am sorry this episode may be very heavy handed about what went down earlier this week. There is so much evil in this situation and it really can't be talked about in a quick segment on a mix show.

Our World Our Time Ep mini 34 Remember When Hip Hop Turned Hip Pop

January 21, 2022 19:16 - 16 minutes - 37.3 MB

To a fault I'm one of those "Keep It Real" guys. I rarely like artists who are pop no matter what the music is. On my Wednesday night show I rock classic music and I rocked some music I really don't like. The reason was because those artists and their music kept Hip Hop relevant and on MTV as well as Top 40 radio. Love it or hate you can't deny that those artists had a major impact on the charts and culture.
