“Anybody remember the old grumpy dudes that used to sit up in the balcony of the Muppet Show? That’s these three arbiters of Hip Hop, but with much more to offer than some snappy one-liners. The Digest pulls no punches and makes no excuses for their opinions on the current state of modern Hip Hop. As devotees of the golden age of such revered acts as PE and KRS one, they hold Hip Hop accountable for the legacy that many of todays “Rappers” have abandoned, in the name of the almighty dollar. King Killa anchors the cast with topics that range from the artistry of Dee-Jaying, to the takeover of the New York scene by the Crunk stylings of the current southern collective. E. Color provides the perfect balance and perspective to keep the crew honest and in check. Curt G. also provides some serious digital diggings, to keep us up on the undergrounds latest. The key element that makes these three worth every minute of your time, is something you can’t teach, or produce on any local radio show; and that’s respect. As heated as the conversation may get, the digest manage to balance ego and personal opinion, with the ability to actually listen to each other. That kind of friendship/chemistry is what is often missing from most shows, and creates a dynamic that is often laugh out loud funny, and fosters a sense of real comradery amongst “The Digest’s” faithful listeners.”
