At blive mor kræver tilvænning, uanset om det er til ens første barn eller til en søskende til flokken. Og nogle gange forløber barslen sig også lidt anderledes, end hvad man havde forestillet sig inden. Det taler vi om i denne panelsnak, hvor vi har besøg af tre kvinder, der er mødre til henholdsvis et, to og tre børn. Vi taler om den ensomhed, der kan følge med barselslivet, om at skrue ned for de obligatoriske barselsaktiviteter, og om at vide, hvad man går ind til, når man har været på barsel før. Vi kommer også omkring hverdagslogistik, om at prioritere alenetid med ens store børn, om at genoptræne og nære sin efterfødselskrop, og om erfaringer med at tage på familierejse under barslen. Panelet består af: Charlotte Riewerts Eriksen, mor til Augusta på 7 år, Luie 4 år og Olivier 1 år. Caroline Plummer, mor til Douglas på 3 år og Ray på 5 måneder. Shila Pourdeylami, mor til Rakim på 1 år.

Episode 362: RASHAD SMITH (Pt.1): The Mystery Beatmaker for Rakim, Uptown Records & Busta Rhymes This week on @RoadPodcast, the crew sits down for Part 1 of an epic two-part conversation with legendary producer @Rashad_Ringo_Smith — the mastermind behind tracks for @TheNotoriousBIG, @BustaRhymes, @JayZ, @Beyonce, @TheGodRakim, and more. You may not know his name, but you definitely know his sound. Rashad kicks things off by reflecting on his early days as a DJ, his childhood nicknames, and the powerful influence his mother had on his musical journey (00:11). He shares his deep love for jazz and reveals how he flipped the same sample two different ways for Busta Rhymes' “Woo Hah” and its remix featuring @OlDirtyBastardLegacy (08:55).

From crafting “Don't Sweat the Technique” to the murky politics of credit in the industry (58:10), Rashad opens up about why he calls himself “The Muted Drum” — a nod to his role as one of the most “unknown, known” producers in hip-hop (1:11:04). He also shares stories from his time at Uptown Records, working with a young @Diddy, and the moment he invented the producer tag (1:31:01), before diving into the rise of Bad Boy Records and the complicated dynamics behind the scenes (1:55:01).

This week on Dem Vinyl Boyz, we keep our Soundtrack Summer rolling by dropping the needle on one of the most iconic hip-hop soundtracks of the early ‘90s — the soundtrack to Ernest R. Dickerson’s cult-classic film Juice. Packed with raw energy and the sound of the streets, this album features a heavy lineup of hip-hop legends and rising stars of the era, including Teddy Riley, Eric B. & Rakim, Cypress Hill, Too $hort, Salt-N-Pepa, and Big Daddy Kane. It’s the soundtrack that perfectly matched the film’s gritty themes of friendship, power, and betrayal, while also showcasing the golden age of East Coast hip-hop. With standout tracks like “Know the Ledge” by Eric B. & Rakim, “Is It Good to You” by Teddy Riley, and “Shoot ’Em Up” by Cypress Hill, this soundtrack didn’t just complement the film — it stood on its own as an essential hip-hop record of the early ’90s. Join Dem Vinyl Boyz as we break down the music, the cultural impact of Juice, and how this soundtrack became a time capsule of the sound that shaped a generation of hip-hop fans.

Welcome back! In the words of Rakim, “It's been a long time!”Wait... Black Girls Don't Get Isakei'd… Do They!?Description:Joy Crockett was just a nerdy, awkward, 25-year-old Black woman navigating the dating pool with her anime obsession, virginity, and a whole lotta hope. But fate had other plans. One minute she's prepping for what should've been her first real night of romance, and the next—BAM—she's hit by a bus and wakes up in a fantasy realm that ain't got no chill.Now blessed (or cursed?) with a body built like a warrior goddess, magic surging through her veins, and pheromones so powerful that every creature she meets wants a taste, Joy's got problems. Real big, real sexy problems. Vampires, elves, dragons, and even gods are ready to risk it all for a night with her—and she's still tryna figure out how to flirt without sweating.But this ain't just about sex. Joy's journey is one of power, choice, and self-discovery. In a world where she's suddenly the most desired being alive, can she protect her heart, body, and sanity? Or will she surrender to the pull of passion and the prophecy that follows her?“Wait… Black Girls Don't Get Isakei'd… Do They!?” flips the script with magic, melanin, and messy entanglements in all the best ways. If you love fantasy adventure laced with heat, heart, and hilarious Black girl realness—this one's for you.Thanks for hanging out with me on the Geeky Sexual and Intellectual Podcast!

Den svårfångade Jay Electronica rappar som om han vore besatt trots att han avskyr hiphopleken. I alla fall spelreglerna. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Han har länge betraktats som en av världens bästa. Men de regelrätta utgivningarna har varit få, och karriären har periodvis kantats av kontroverser.Jay Electronicas arv utgörs av ett par album, närmare hundra utspridda låtar, gästverser, och ett mysterium kring person och artisteri. Resan började när han som 10-åring såg LL Cool J på Run DMC's ”Raising hell”-turne. Runtomkring honom i New Orleans fanns den sprudlande hiphopbastarden bounce. Men Jay Electronica skämdes över att komma från södern. Rappribban hade satts i New York, och han ville bli som Rakim och Nas, snarare än lokala hjältarna Tim Smooth och Bust Down. Han ville bli förstådd på andra platser än i Louisiana, och formade ett eget mytomspunnet flyt.Ett avsnitt från september 2019.

Episode #377 of The VentureFizz Podcast is Victor D. Lombard (aka DIVINE), CEO & Co-Founder of Notes. As the host of this podcast, I have the honor of being able to help tell the story of so many founders and investors and each story is unique. But this one is a whole new level. DIVINE's full story is probably the most unique entrepreneurial story that has been told on our podcast. From the streets of NYC to incarceration to master networker to fintech entrepreneur, this story has it all… including how one of Silicon Valley's top venture capitalists, that being Ben Horowitz helped change his life and built a friendship, plus his rap song that was the intro for the A16Z podcast. Oh… and it just so happens that the co-founder of his latest startup called Notes is Rakim. Yes, that same Rakim from the 80's hip-hop duo of Eric B & RAKIM… with legendary songs like Don't Sweat the Technique and Paid in Full… which is why you are hearing their song Let The Rhythm Hit ‘Em for this podcast intro and outro.
