Kendrick Lamar: How To Be An MC
Kendrick Lamar is the greatest MC of his era. Is it even a question? But how did he get to be that? In this throwback interview, I talked to Kendrick to find out how he became Kendrick. We talk about how he got to be so good. What are his favorite words? We also talk about his best verses and his best song. And what was the impact of seeing dead bodies on the street when he was a kid. Awesome conversation with a genius.

BA Parker–I teach film
BA Parker is the co-host of the great podcast Code Switch and she was a film professor at Morgan State U so we talk a lot about lots of films from a Black POV and get into the weeds about film culture. I love this convo.

Arlan Hamilton - I Steal White Privilege
You don’t need to work 50 hours a week to get rich. You need to make your money work for you. And you need to know that you can infiltrate the power structure and make their rules for you. Arlan Hamilton is an amazing Black female Venture Capitalist who was homeless not long ago and now has a crowdfunded VC fund that anyone can join (theoretically—right now it’s closed, slots sold out in a day! But I’m hoping it opens back up soon!) But here she talks about going from homeless to VC and how she’s trying to create business opportunities for Black, brown, female and LGBT founders because they are an under utilized resource even though they know how to make a dollar out of 15 cents. A throwback to an important conversation from 2018 with a woman who’s figured out how to steal white privilege and make it work for her.

Customer Reviews
Mr. Blow and movin out
This conversation is long overdue. Mr. Blow surgically presented SOME of the reasons to rethink our financial, social, political, mental and quality of life power we must attend to NOW. Ugh I wish this could’ve lasted longer but I’ll take the gift. Well done!
Great HipHop review
I loved the conversation with B Jones & M Holley! Thank you so much and though im late to knowing this podcast exist, I’ve spent this last weekend catching up! As a 48yr old West coast kid, I heard LL, KRS-1, Kool G rap, Dana Dane… So I’m that old…Raised on Lyrical geniuses and y’all brought me back…Have you heard J Cole rhyme and do you think he has that 90s flow… Biggie cadence?
LOX all day…I know I said West coast, but I’m a hip hop who’s here for the lyrics, and KRS-1 will always be my #1, Jay-z, 3 stacks, Em & PAC… it’s definitely emotional and where I was when I heard them or how they paint a picture…Kiss, Cole, TI, Ludacris Big Daddy Kane…. I also think JayZ word play in American Gangster is some of his best work!
A special shout out to the discussion with Dr Dyson… wow! Keep being great, and I will keep listening and letting my people out there know this is a must listen podcast ✌🏾
Very clear dissection of events and eras
Thank you
