LIVE From The Basement

Phro was out but that didnt stop us from having a great show! We had Jesse the ghost writer from Rap Rebirth for a quick interview, we jumped in the Stash Box, checked out DJ Quiks The Book of David for Blend It or Bump It and got into a heated debate over the Beastie Boys.

Wild show this week. Discussing your favorite tracks to swoon the females, racial stereotyping on t.v., trannies (yeah trannies) a lot of great music, blend it or bump it and a lot more.

Back off the sickness and we throw you all another curve ball as we run half the show in the basement and then we took it to the road as we headed to the Shady 2.0 show (we even snuck in a couple audio snippets from the show for you all).

Heres a mini-episode. After 5 months of planning, meetings, discussions, money, time and energy, Major and I came down coincidentally at the EXACT same time with some whicked I dont know what. Sick for a week straight, we had no chance and were forced to cancel ALL of our SXSW plans and lose a lot of money we put into going to this event. So we apologize you guys, we had our hearts set on this thing only to see it come crashing down due to 102 degree fevers amongst other things. We’ll see you all next episode, March 24th 7:30pm EST

Inspired by our trip to South By South West this year (catch us down there March 17-20) we loaded up this episode with music features by artists who will be performing at the festival down in Austin, Texas. We also got a few minutes to speak with hip-hop coordinator of SXSW and owner of AustinSurreal.com, Matt Sonzala. We also had Strong Arm Steadys Arms and Hammers on the the lid for blend it or bump it and we mixed up some real delicious #TigerBlood for the stash box. Hit the notes for the recipe!

The long awaited conclusion to our Hip-Hop Fight Club! Who do you have winning? Print out your own bracket at http://www.hoodhype.com/fightclub. This episode we discussed the Grammies, Eminems Superbowl commercial, cars and systems we used to have and using EBT cards at the strip club. Cant forget some CRAZY hot music this episode too!

Crazy episode we discussed Fight Clubs Midwest bracket, SNLs biggest ratings in years, Black History Month and we got into a crazy debate over Talib Kweli's album Gutter Rainbows which was on the chopping block for Blend It Or Bump It.

Racial topics galore, HoodHype Fight Club: Down South bracket, Phro almost stabs JMack and JMack challenges Phro to a beer drinking duel...

We're excited to be back for our first show of 2011! In this ep we talked about Cipha Sounds getting suspended at Hot97, Ghostface's Apollo Kids was on the chopping block for Blend it or bump it, we ran with HoodHype's hip-hop Fight Club for the West Coast (listen in to find out who took the West Coast bracket) and JMack getting the verbal whipping by a rapper on twitter. This and a lot more! Download this ep and listen in!

Okay maybe Episode 129 WASNT our last show of 2010. But this one is. Enjoy some of our favorite tracks from past episodes of this year and make sure you pay close attention to the first song in this episode.

We kicked things off with the Hip Hop Fight Club's East Coast bracket, and youll be surprised to find out who came out on top. We also got into the holiday spirit and discussed what if Santa was black, which led us into another racial conversation centered around the white bank robber who dressed up as a black dude while putting in his work. We put Cliffords latest release No Mercy on the chopping block for this episode's Blend It or Bump It, sampled a domestic brew for the Stash Box, and chopped it up on a bunch of other topics to wrap up our last show for 2010.

This episode we kicked off our new mini-series, HoodHypes Hip-Hop Fight Club, Kanyes new album was on the chopping block for Blend it or Bump it, we discussed this years Grammy Nominations, spun a ton of great new music and more!

The boys are back! This episode was a special one as we discussed racism against postal workers, Drake getting knuckled up by Weezy, a listener submitted Stash Box and we put Devin the Dude's latest album on the chopping block for Blend it or Bump it!

Five years weve been doing this. A simple thank you would never be enough for your support and listening to our show. To kick off our fifth year episode we gave away a copy of NBA2k11 live on the show, ran through the stash box and previewed Statik Selektah and Termanologys album 1982 for Blend It or Bump It. Half way through Statik called in randomly to talk about the album and what hes been working on. That, a ton of phenomenal music (as always) and a lot more.

Phro brought "AGoody" back to the basement with a complete collection of liquor. Needless to say the show kicked off to a great start. We spun some incredible music, JMack talked about his visit to the A3C festival in Atlanta, GA in the US and we got into a big debate over older women. We had a GREAT time this episode, and we hope you enjoy it!
