The question est LE podcast qui vous permettra de faire de magnifiques de ouvertes, ou de perfectionner vos connaissances de groupes ou d’albums que vous écoutez déjà. Le secret est qu’ils prennent le temps, tout est fait pour les passionnés, avec une science du partage qui force le respect. Who did it best?…
Huge Making Illmatic fan. The albums they choose speak to me deeply as they were the soundtrack to my youth. Their Hip Hop knowledge is legit.
I mean yooo drink champs and jaun ep is nice and I love em hahah but these dudes are dope and deserve more credit, no random years ago references or being divorced or being Sifu yalla lol
Great insight into the artists and great trivia. I luv to watch these with my friends and seeing who can get the most correct. I check every week even though I have noti’s on.
Been listening to several of these “Making Illmatic” episodes since a friend told me about them recently. Extremely entertaining and addictive listening that gives you a nice overview of new and old classic records.
Would love to hear you guys do:
Mobb Deep - “Infamy”
Method Man - “Tical 2000: Judgement Day”
Nas - “Streets Disciple”
Thanks 🥊
