The Audacity of Dope

(you like that 3rd person blog title, don’t ya?)

The homies Doc and Armond do one of the best hip-hop podcasts around with their Clock Radio Speakers show and I was honored to be a guest on a recent episode of theirs.  Toss this on and listen to us nerd out about all sorts of topics, including rap’s fascination with radio play and how radio really works, Wale’s issues with Complex, “event” releases in 2013 from artists like Jay-Z and Beyonce, my #InboxMadness Twitter series, industry tastemakers, and a whole bunch more.  Just a fun discussion with some folks that truly love music.  Good times.

New music on this week’s SNSS from the likes of Fabolous, JR & PH7, Phonte, Median, Harry Fraud, Forte Bowie, Apollo Brown, Guilty Simpson, Emilio Rojas, Don’t Talk To The Cops, Fiona Apple, Quartermaine, MeLo-X, Marz Lovejoy, The Weeknd, Toro y Moi, Sean Price, and more.  Plus, the homey Mr. MFN eXquire checked in to talk about his new Power and Passion EP and debut one of his tracks off it.

Lastly, if you missed the video of our interview with Juicy J, you can check that out right here.  We chatted with the trippy one about life on tour, his favorite city to perform in, linking up with Wiz Khalifa and the Taylor Gang, his upcoming Stay Trippy project, the success of “Bandz A Make Her Dance,” a possible return to Hollywood, and more.

Enjoy the show and interview!
