The Audacity of Dope

It’s Halloween and I can think of nothing scarier than a Donald Trump presidency.  If there are early voting options where you live, don’t wait and get it done now.  I sent mine in all the way from Australia, so you’ve got no excuses.  Please make sure your voice is heard!

If you need a soundtrack while standing in line, Sound Session gotcha.  New music on this week’s show from Action Bronson, NxWorries, Joe Budden, Like, Common, No Panty (Joell Ortiz + Nitty Scott + Bodega Bamz), Jay Prince, Taliwhoah, Ari Lennox, Boogie, Xavier Omar, Manatee Commune & Sol, Dame D.O.L.L.A.

Enjoy!

Another fun week on SNSS, as we were joined in studio by some of our favorite artists from Seattle: Nacho Picasso, Scribes, and SPAC3MAN, plus one of the dopest up-and-coming dudes in the game, Atlanta’s ForteBowie, called in to chop it up with us.  We also played new records from J. Cole, Bas, Planet Asia, Childish Gambino, Oddisee, Thunderbird Gerard, Piu Piu, Naomi Pilgrim, Shad, Drake, and more.

Outside of music, you do realize we have the NFL in full swing, college football coming down the stretch, soccer leagues and World Cup qualifying all around the world, the World Series, college basketball about to begin, and the NBA starting tonight, right?  It really doesn’t get any better.

Look no further!

I’ve talked about my day job here on TAOD a few times, but I haven’t mentioned that one of the perks is working with some really cool and talented people.  A few of my homies from work are part of a dope rap/rock band called the Goondocks and they’re throwing this event on Saturday night at Spitfire for Halloween.

Not only do you get some great music and some freebies from Stoli Vodka and Snowboard Connection, but you can come kick it with some cool folks at a great venue.

Oh…and it’s free.  Beat that.

Again, not a lyric today, but this is rather fitting for Halloween since I can’t imagine a quote scarier than this right now.  Toure recently asked Soulja Boy,

“What historical figure do you most hate?” He was stumped. I said, “Others have said Hitler, bin Laden, the slave masters…” He said, “Oh wait! Hold up! Shout out to the slave masters! Without them we’d still be in Africa.”

My jaw, at this point, was on the ground.”We wouldn’t be here,” he continued, having no idea how far in it he’d stepped, “to get this ice and tattoos.”

Wow.  Apparently Souja Boy is going as a moron tonight (and every other day of his life).

Tunji wins.  I’ll beeeeeeeeee dat.
