Podcasts about Lyrics Born

Lyrics Born is a respected rap veteran who is having a career resurgence after three decades in music. After announcing his latest album "Goodbye, Sticky Rice" would be his last, he started going viral on Instagram and gaining millions of views. This came after his beginnings at UC Davis with Solesides/Quannum, releasing projects with DJ Shadow, Lateef/Latryx, and Gift of Gab and Blackalicious. Navigating independent hip-hop as a trailblazing Asian artist, LB has defied industry stereotypes and become a critically acclaimed, internationally touring Bay Area legend.--For promo opportunities on the podcast, e-mail info@historyofthebay.com--History of the Bay Spotify Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3ZUM4rCv6xfNbvB4r8TVWU?si=9218659b5f4b43aaOnline Store: https://dregsone.myshopify.com Follow Dregs One:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/1UNuCcJlRb8ImMc5haZHXF?si=poJT0BYUS-qCfpEzAX7mlAInstagram: https://instagram.com/dregs_oneTikTok: https://tiktok.com/@dregs_oneTwitter: https://twitter.com/dregs_oneFacebook: https://facebook.com/dregsone41500:00 Going viral16:40 Final album??23:20 Being independent29:26 Childhood34:45 Getting into hip-hop40:33 Solesides / Quannum 50:34 Underground hip-hop scene59:47 Rap style1:04:16 Gift of Gab1:08:24 The Funk1:13:52 Touring

"The man who embraces his mediocre nothingness shines greater than any." - Keanu Reeves 2019's "Always Be My Maybe" is a cute romantic comedy, but it's also a look at an alternate version of Randall Park as a chill San Francisco rapper. We'll talk about the real influences on Hello Peril, the group at the center of this movie, as well as some other Bay Area artists that we believe fed into the vibe. Plus, a bit on the heavy-hitters like Dan the Automator and Lyrics Born who lent real-life credibility to the music in this film.

In 2022, Rolling Stone called Lyrics Born's 2003 album, Later That Day one of "the 200 greatest albums of all time." Now, after 30 years in the rap game, the Bay Area rapper, singer and producer has decided to retire with his album, Goodbye, Sticky Rice. This news comes after he launched his popular YouTube cooking show, “Dinner in Place” during the pandemic, made appearances in Ali Wong and Randall Park's “Always Be My Maybe” in 2019, and in Boots Riley's “Sorry to Bother You” in 2018. Lyrics Born joins us for a Listening Party and to talk about his love for cooking.

Art is a mode of expression, a vehicle for processing thoughts and feelings, and a way to connect. Regardless of your political leanings, it's fair to say we just went through a tumultuous election. These times of uncertainty often prompt us to look for art, create art, or reflect on how it can bring us beauty, reflection and meaning. So, we'll talk to Bay Area artists about what is on their minds and how to access creativity. Guests: Tsutomu "Tom" Shimura, Lyrics Born, rapper, producer and song-writer; author of the e-book “Yes, Bay Area”, a collection of his tweets. Callan Porter-Romero, artist based in Oakland; One of her paintings is now on exhibit at The de Young Open. She was also included in the 2020 Exhibition. Matthew Zapruder, poet and author of "I Love Hearing Your Dreams: Poems"; He teaches in the MFA and English Department at Saint Mary's College of California.

Next Up we have Brian Cross AKA B+. Brian is one of the most important photographers & Filmmakers in hip hop, period. He's worked with Biggie Smalls, J Dilla, Kendrick Lamar, Snoop Dogg, Lauryn Hill and even once told me that MF DOOM shared his studio for a while. Brian actually grew up in Limerick, before getting a degree in NCAD in Dublin and moving to California in 1990 to attend California Institute of the Arts. It was here he became immersed in hip hop culture as it was beginning to really blossom and his professor Mike Davis encouraged him to combine his interest in politics, hip hop and photography and eventually Brian published ‘It's Not About A Salary - Rap and Resistance in LA'. It featured conversations and photos of Dr Dre, Eazy-E, Ice Cube, Cypress hill and more and was one of the first books documenting west coast hip hopIf you look close enough brian's imprint is everywhere. Hip Hop Heads will no doubt be familiar with DJ Shadow's Entroducing, the album is in the guinness world book of records for being the first record to be made completely out of samples. The iconic artwork shows producer Chief Xcel and rapper Lyrics Born digging for records and was of course shot by Brian.In this episode we talk about his new film about The Supremes which is shot in Ireland, his legendary documentary Brasilintime and working with legends like Madlib.Make sure to subscribe it helps a lot ❤️Shout out to RiRa for sponsoring this season of the podcast - https://www.ri-ra.beer/Shout out to WHIPITCONALL on making the jingle for the podcast check him out here: / whipitconall Shout out to DryLane Studios for letting us use their spaceFollow me:https://www.tiktok.com/@deeeemurphhttps://www.instagram.com/mabfield/Follow Brian:https://instagram.com/bpleasel Hosted on Acast.

Talking about show vs tell at the scene level is a little bit harder than talking about it at the paragraph and scene levels. But it's also a tiny bit easier. When you're looking for telling at this level of the story, what you're looking for is a couple of things: A butt ton of backstory. A butt ton of info dumps A lot of flashback. You can have bits of these things in your stories. Where us authors get into trouble is when we have a lot of it and we have a lot of it in telling language. So, that really happens when we do this: Bud Godzilla looked down on his sweet friend turned zombie. They'd been friends forever, so this hurt. Three page description of how they met – info dump or backstory Or: Bud Godzilla looked down on his sweet friend turned zombie. They'd been friends forever, so this hurt. Three page scene of how they met – flashback. You usually want to limit these places and instead sprinkle in action/dialogue/details throughout to help the readers understand that the characters have history or the world exists before the book begins. There's a balance between telling too much and too little. You want the reader to anticipate that something cool is going to happen or has happened, but you don't want to leave them confused or knowing way too much. You know how sometimes you'll be on the plane and the person will not stop talking for six hours about their boil, their aunts' piano obsessions, their dinner plans while you just want to finish watching the inflight movie? That's what happens with those paragraphs of backstory, flashbacks and info dumping. Everything is paused. The stakes are gone. And when that happens? You risk losing your reader completely. DOG TIP FOR LIFE Pogie says keep your eyes on the prize, my friend, and laugh. COOL WRITING EXERCISE TO MAX OUT YOUR SKILLS This comes from the Writing Cooperative and it's really about how to spot your info dump, which is an exercise. "Once you spot an info-dump, ask yourself the following questions: "How much of this information is it essential for the reader to know right now? Most of the information will not be essential. Be ruthless. Cut it out. "Of the information left — if any — how can I get the protagonist to do something which shows or implies the information? This may involve minor or major rewriting, but you do no-one any good by avoiding it. Rework or add scenes which convey the information through present situations and your protagonist's actions. "If the information is necessary, how can I use it to enhance the emotional effect of the scene? Key in on the emotional impact of the scene and if you must retain information that can't be shown or implied, look for ways to add it in a way that will have an emotional impact. ;But the woman you saw can't have been my mom, Angie. Mom died when I was a kid.'"

It is a pleasure to welcome rapper Lyrics Born to The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast.He relocated to the United States from his birthplace of Tokyo, Japan, right around the time hip-hop music was exploding on the East Coast. From the moment he heard Sugar Hill Gang's 1980 classic “Rapper's Delight,” the Bay Area hip-hop luminary knew he found his calling. 25 years later, Lyrics Born obliterated stereotypes of what an MC is “supposed to” look like and captured the hearts of countless fans who gravitate to his distinctive voice. He is the only Asian-American MC to release 10 studio albums and the first to play major music festivals such as Coachella and Lollapalooza. He is the first Asian-American rapper to release a greatest hits compilation; he's pumped out multiple smash singles throughout his career. From “Callin' Out” and “I Like It, I Love It” to “I Changed My Mind” and “Coulda Woulda Shoulda,” his material has always retained a musically eclectic feel. The self-proclaimed “funkiest rapper alive” carries on his tradition of weaving funk and soul into classic, boom-bap Hip Hop on Quite A Life. Without the influence of icons such as the late James Brown, George Clinton, Bootsy Collins, and Zapp & Roger, Lyrics Born admits he would not be who he is today—coupled with his love of rap pioneers such as KRS-One, Rakim, and Snoop Dogg. The music is the perfect hip-hop and funk-flavored gumbo. He expanded his empire into film since establishing himself among the upper echelon of indie Hip Hop artists.Lyrics Born appeared in films such as Boots Riley's critically acclaimed Sorry To Bother You and the Netflix film Always Be My Maybe, which starred Ali Wong, Randall Park, and Keanu Reeves. He is also the host of the popular web-based cooking show Dinner in Place. Originally launched during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, Dinner in Place has gained popularity over the years with three successful seasons. Now entering its fourth season, Lyrics Born stepped up the production value for the series with an entire film crew and introducing celebrity guests. The series promises an even more exciting culinary experience celebrating diversity and multiculturalism. In this edition of The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, Lyrics Born previewed the new season of Dinner in Place and spoke about some of the dishes that he made this season, including an Everything Bagel Sushi Roll and the Japanese Convenience Store 3x Egg Salad Sandwich that he made with Top Chef icon Chris Cosentino.

Randall Park is even more lovely in person than he is on screen! Ange sits down with him at the Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco to discuss his feature length directorial debut, Shortcomings, based on the graphic novel by Adrian Tomine. The film follows three young  Asian Americans living in the Bay Area as they navigate life, relationships, and (hopefully) their own personal growth.Randall shares his reaction to reading the novel in 2007, AAPI representation through the years, and the great debate that every Asian American has had about the film Crazy Rich Asians. He shares his love for some of the Bay Area musicians that are part of the film's score, and the differences between filming in NY versus Berkeley. Then we go back to his time at UCLA, majoring in Asian American Studies, and founding a comedy troop with friends who he eventually joined forces with to launch the production company, Imminent Collision. Finally, he gets into Hollywood gatekeepers, his work philosophy, and what film he loves that would piss off Ben, the cinephile main character in Shortcomings.Shortcomings opens in theaters on August 4th, get tickets here--on-site audio producer: Josh BrumleyThanks for listening and for your support!

En una primera parte nos centramos en sonidos souleros. Sonidos que van desde lo más clásico hasta lo más vanguardista, pasando por aquellos que interactúan con otros estilos. Así, los más clásicos están interpretados por The Bamboos con Durand Jones, el realizado por Incognito con Mario Biondi y Chaka Khan, y el tocado por Koko-Jean. También escucharemos los que interactúan con el funk, como el de The Voice Of Lajorum con Josh Hoyer y Funky Destination. Los neo-soul de Sebah y de Kraak & Smaak con Satchmode. Y los afro-soul que nos traen The Rebel y J.P. Bimeni en compañía de The Black Belts.En la zona funk también encontraremos diferentes puntos de interpretación del mismo. El recorrido más clásico corre a cargo de Jayl Funk, del grandísimo James Brown, de Vaudou Game y de Soul Snatcher. El funk latino lo pone los Latin Soul Syndicate. Con hip-hop nos lo trae The Allergies en compañía de Lyrics Born. Y cerramos el programa bailando con el funk-disco-rompepistas que nos regala Jaques Raupé.

Great music reminiscent of rap from the past..

Tom Shimura, aka Lyrics Born, has been making music for more than three decades. And while that may be enough for most artists, the east bay native is not content to rest on his laurels in his pursuit of making incredible music. With his fourteenth album, Vision Board getting ready to be released via his own indie label, Quannum Projects, the MC and part-time actor is feeling the pressure to stay in the conversation. JC got a chance to sit with Lyrics Born to talk about the east bay music scene, how hip-hop has changed what it means to be an entrepreneur in the music industry, and how he's used technology to stay connected with fans. All of this and much more on theFIVE10 Podcast!

We've decided to split out our wrestling talk so those who don't enjoy talk of the squared circle can pass on this.  Matt and Jay talk about their recent experience watching Glory Pro Wrestling, which featured AEW Wrestlers Danhausen, Ethan Page, and Dante Martin.  They also talk about some of the better AEW storylines going on. Music was from Lyrics Born featuring Sitcom Dad (aka Randall Park) and Dan the Automator; the track is "This Song's Delicious".  You can find him at: Facebook Twitter Website Instagram Check us out at our website and on social media

Facing an indeterminate period of isolation, Lyrics Born did what any rational person would: he started a podcast. While he's quick to note that the last two years offered a period of reflection and a rare moment to catch his breath during an impressive 25-year career in hip-hop, Mobile Homies was, ultimately, less about working than connecting. The show offered an opportunity to connect with fellow artists and friends during an exceedingly trying time. Conversations became collaborations, resulting in a new album of the same name. The LP finds him collaborating with familiar names like Lateef the Truthspeaker, Prince Paul and Dan the Automater, along with an appearance by the late-emcee – and his longtime friend – Blackalicious' Gift of Gab.

Back today with a veteran in the hip hop community, Lyrics Born.  Born in Tokyo and then growing up in the bay area, Lyrics brings fresh perspective into his music and outlook on life, the industry, and his career.  For close to 30 years, Lyrics has worked with just about everyone.  We discuss everything from Lyrcis' early years, life during Covid, standing out as an Asian artist, and his new album Mobile Homies: Season1.    Have a listen!   We also dive into the terrible life of a conartist comedian we know, code named, Mark Smith.  You might not believe what you hear!  

"The minute I heard [Trump] say 'China Virus' and 'Kung Flu' I knew it was going to be open season on Asians," Lyrics Born tells Library Rap: The Hip Hop Interviews during their must-listen conversation this week. "ANTI" by Lyrics Born and Filipino-American DJ Cutso is a new track denouncing the criminal epidemic that shines a light on this troubling rise in their communities, with hope that it spreads awareness to stop the violence against AAPI. Lyrics Born discusses the false narrative of conflict between Asian-Americans and other communities, the pinning by White America of communities of Color against each other, the minimizing of racism in the United States by pushing the idea of the “Model Minority”, lack of Asian-American history in American History Books, the toll racism has on mental health and much more.

This week's guest is Joe Bagale, a San Francisco-based producer, artist, multi-instrumentalist, songwriter and educator. Now, I know that might seem like he's a jack of all trades and a master of none, but that couldn't be further from the truth. As Joe's bio states on his website, his sound is “fresh, but tangibly rooted in nostalgia” and I think that's the perfect way to describe it. Joe is also a self-proclaimed “Groover Not A Prover” and this conversation perfectly showcases that vibe. Originally from Rochester, NY, Joe has produced and released a number of albums under his name, followed by a project he calls Otis McDonald, writing audio library music for YouTube. As I said, he basically does everything and on top of produced / recording … he's shared the stage with (and I might add not always on drums) with Stevie Wonder, Mickey Hart of Grateful Dead, Fred Wesley and PeeWee Ellis (members of James Brown's band) Dave Schools (of Widespread Panic), Mike Gordon (of Phish), Martin Luther (of The Roots), Gift2Gab, Lyrics Born and many more. At the end of the day, Joe just wants you to dance. Enjoy the top 5 records the built Joe Bagale into the musician he is today.

Talking with Lyrics Born was absolutely amazing. Not only is he a dope ass MC and producer, he is also a chef and now an actor, but more than that he wears his heart on his sleeve and he could not have been more kind and more fun to talk to. From bananas and bandanas to reminiscing about No Limit Records album covers, our conversation was personally priceless, and it shows. On top of all that, LB's passion shines bright when he talks about the world. His new song ANTI with Cutso is all about anti Asian hate, made with the hopes of inspiring others to step up and speak out against hate of all forms. It was an honor to dive into the heart and mind of this magnificent artist and human, who had us thinking deep thoughts as well as laughing our asses off. If you see him, call him Bartholomew; he'll know you listened.

Part 1 of 2. There's so much good stuff in this interview we had to split it into two parts. Jeff Chang and Davey D have written the definitive hip hop history. They should know. They're both hip hop journalists, and DJs, and political activists, and college professors. Dave has been tearing the Bay Area airwaves and the internets since like forever. As we discuss, his charts and playlists played a big role in spreading the knowledge of underground hip hop around the world. Jeff was a founder of the SoleSides Crew responsible for bringing us artists like DJ Shadow and Lyrics Born and helped Josh get his first job out of college. So there's that. Our interview tracks the development of their careers along parallel paths before converging on the re-imagining of Jeff's book — originally published in 2005 — for young adults. They may have cleaned up some of the language, and also added some pivotal stories from hip hop's evolution from then until the present day. In particular, the new version expands on women's role in hip hop as well as how the culture has spread to literally every corner on earth. We also uncover some things they learned through the writing process, and how they leaned on each other to produce a product that's truly inspiring.
