  • I love every week finding out about 3 amazing artist. Not always mainstream and that's what I love. I dont have time to do research myself to find these sick beats. So every single Friday I now find several new favorite jams from the artist talked about on the podcast. Thanks Ryan for keeping it fun and NASTY. All those gross ass beats making me throw up every Friday.
