DANGERMAN RETURNS Live Broadcast, Hosted by PHELO THE GREAT (Special Guests: DangerMan and Solomon Childs) -- LISTEN NOWMORE -- DANGERMAN http://www.youtube.com/urbansuperherohttp://www.thedangerman.com-- SOLOMON CHILDSRapper and Staten Island native, Solomon Childs, became affiliated with the mighty Wu-Tang Clan through his family ties to godbrother, Cappadonna, and cousin, Ghostface Killah. CHILDS contributed to various Wu-Tang-related releases throughout the late '90s and early 2000s, including verses on Cappadonna's The Pillage, RZA's Bobby Digital, Ghostface Killah's Supreme Clientele, and others. In the early 2000s, he was a member of the Ghostface-affiliated group, Theodore Unit, as well as appearing on tracks by other artists and working on his own releases. Solomon Childs issued a steady string of CD-R albums throughout the 2000s and early 2010s, offering the same kind of frenetic styles and hyper-prolific creative drive that would be represented by mixtape releases in hip-hop's next generation. In 2016, he was shot twice in a drive-by shooting while out shopping in Staten Island. The rapper underwent multiple surgeries but survived the attempt on his life. He returned in 2017 after the ordeal with Don't Ask Permission, Ask for Forgiveness.like . share . subscribe . leave a comment _https://www.spreaker.com/user/valeriedenisejones _ BIG Exclusives - Tuesday 4p EST - Studio Line:  (929) 477-1167Instagram : @phelothegreat / @valeriedenisejones

BIG EXCLUSIVES - THE WEST COAST EDITION (JUNE 4)Hosted by Valerie Denise Jones and Phelo the Great --------------- ABOUT DJ NASTY NES ----------- CEO of RapAttackLives.com --- FROM THE WEBSITE ----In 1970, "Nasty-Nes" Rodriguez relocated to the United States where his dreams began to become a reality. "While my sister was attending New York University, I’d spend my summer vacations in the Big Apple in the late 70's peeping out radio stations like WKTU & Mr. Magic's 'Rap Attack' show on WBLS," says Nes. “Seeing Grandmaster Flash perform live on the wheels in New York gave me the incentive to be a radio deejay and a mix deejay!"By 1980, Nes debuted the West Coast’s first-ever all rap radio show "Freshtracks" on Seattle's 1250 KFOX. The October 1996 issue of Source Magazine's 'In The Hood' section quotes, "Nes, the staple of rap radio in Seattle, would be the West Coast equivalent to NY's DJ Red Alert!" In 1985, NastyMix Records was born as an independent record label. Sir Mix-A-Lot became the first artist on their roster, giving NastyMix two gold & platinum albums. Nes was also featured on the classic single, "Radio" by the late & legendary Eazy-E!By 1988, Nes took his rap radio show 'Rap Attack' to KCMU and his 'Hotmix' show to KUBE 93. In September 1997, Nes finally turned off his mic after 17 years on the Seattle airwaves to relocate to Southern California. He became the Rap Editor for HITS Magazine, a weekly national trade publication. Five years later, Nes left HITS and established RapAttackLives.com, his own online National College Rap Radio Promotions business._____like . share . subscribe . leave a comment https://www.spreaker.com/user/valeriedenisejones

The song did well in the United Kingdom, reaching the number 13 on the UK Singles Chart and on the UK R&B Charts peaking at number 3.

The Powerful Health Benefits of My Relationship With Ernest Lee ThomasWhen I first met Ernest Lee Thomas (Raj), I fell in love with his realistically dark commentary and whimsical sense of humour. I had always admired him from a distance, again not just because of his capricious hilarity, but because of the powerful benefits his comedy creates:1. Laughter, like sports, can help relieves stressStudies have shown that laughter can effectively reduce your stress levels. Research suggests that laughter relieves stress by initiating and then abruptly cooling down your stress responses. What's more, simply anticipating a laugh can have powerful stress-relieving effects.2. It can help relieve painIn addition to being a stress-reliever, comedy could also help with long-term pain management. Laughing can cause your body to produce natural painkillers and may also relieve pain caused by muscle disorders by interfering with the "pain-spasm" cycle.3. It can help boost your immune systemSome research has shown that laughter may increase the number of infection-fighting antibodies and boost immune cells. Likewise, positive thoughts and feelings -- such as those released with laughter -- have the potential to release neuropeptides, which help fight illness and stress.4. It can help reduce blood pressureIn addition to the health benefits mentioned above, laughing can improve blood flow and reduce your blood pressure. In fact, two well-documented studies found that laughter improves the flow of blood through the body's arteries, thus reducing blood pressure as well as subjects' risk of heart disease.Most amazingly, one of the studies found that watching a funny movie improved blood pressure "for a full 24 hours" after the program was viewed. The other study discovered that, not only do humorous programs improve dilation of the arteries, but that watching depressing programs is actually harmful to our blood vessels.5. It can stimulate your mindCould HANGING OUT WITH RAJ (ERNEST LEE THOMAS) actually improve your brain function? Cognitive neuroscientists found that people exposed to comedy are better able to answer semantic associates tasks. In a Psychology Today article, a writer stated, "Comedy is like mental exercise, and just as physical exercise strengthens the body, comedy pumps up the mind."6. RAJ (ERNEST LEE THOMAS) can be likened to a good workoutSpeaking of physical exercise, however, it's worth noting that HANGING OUT WITH RAJ (ERNEST LEE THOMAS) can be likened to an easy workout. Of course, you probably shouldn't try to substitute your relationship with MR THOMAS for a solid gym workout, but HANGING OUT WITH HIM does have its benefits. My informal studies have suggested that 10-15 minutes of ELT COMEDY can burn about 50 calories -- that's approximately one Oreo cookie.https://www.spreaker.com/user/valeriedenisejones
