The Audacity of Dope

Knee deep in the NBA Finals and on the verge of EURO 2016 kicking off (TV schedule here, exclusively on ESPN and streaming in our app!).  Your boy’s officially in his happy place. Oh, and there’s a TON of good music out right now, so hopefully you enjoy a sampling of that on the latest episode of SNSS.  New tracks from Drizzy (of course), Russ, Roy Woods, Kaytranada (my producer of the year so far), SG Lewis, Little Dragon, Joey Badass, Nao, Chance, and more, plus a throwback celebrating the 20th anniversary of the debut album from the Lost Boyz (RIP Freaky Tah).  Draze also dropped by the studio to play the title track off his mixtape, Seattle’s Own, which you can download here.

Enjoy!

Two SNSS updates back to back!  Here’s episode #477, where we played new records from Camp Lo, M.O.P., Cormega, AZ, Redman, Styles, G-Unit, Common, DTMD, Your Old Droog, Macklemore, FKA twigs, Sam Smith, Majid Jordan, and more.  In honor of Jay-Z and Beyonce performing in Seattle last week…and obviously not seeing him perform some of his older classics…we hopped in the way back machine for a throwback set of some Jay-Z classics.  The man has so much quality material, it’s really ridiculous when you start thinking about all the records…

We were also joined in studio by one of the most buzz-worthy artists in hip-hop right now, Seattle’s own Sam Lachow.  Every month, another major label calls me to ask about Sam, but so far, he’s been able to build everything up independently.  It’s a great route if you can do it and Sam’s excelling, with his new album, Huckleberry, reaching the iTunes top 5 hip-hop albums.  Go cop that.

Last, but not least, Seattle veteran Draze came through to play a record called “The Hood Ain’t The Same,” and speak on the important issue of gentrification.  One of the more enjoyable conversations we’ve had on the show recently.

Enjoy!
