Customer Reviews
Fresh
If you like hip-hop and you like laughing, then this is the podcast for you. There are several moments during each episode where I find myself laughing hysterically, and hearing the discussions about hip-hop both currently and historically feels like I'm sitting with people who "get it." 5 stars for sure.
Hip-Hop+ Knowledge
Let me be up front here. I'm a nerd. To the point that I bump the Nerdist podcast in the car driving through the Bronx. But I love hip-hop. These dudes do a great job discussing the music and have a lot of fun with it though some may not be a fan of their "backpack" Hip-Hop opinions. Regardless, it's great
The best
This is the best hiphop podcast available in my opinion. Funny, insightful, original, amazing guests.
