A Pioneer in midwest hip-hop, MC Breed and The DFC released their debut self titled album in 1991. With the song Aint No Future In Yo Frontin putting Breed and hometown Flint, Michigan on the map, it led to a rather successful career for him but it all started with this solid debut. https://www.tiktok.com/@brandonhetzel996?_t=ZT-8tOQNPSJHCs&_r=1 https://www.instagram.com/str8_the_clippa?igsh=cTBzNnFhenRkN3Nl&utm_source=qr https://www.facebook.com/share/1ACZP6hgvZ/?mibextid=wwXIfr
Pioneers in southern hip-hop, rappers Pimp C and Bun B burst onto the scene under the name U.G.K., releasing their debut album Too Hard To Swallow in 1992. The laid back pimp style would end up being a staple, not only for U.G.K., but for southern hip-hop in general and cement their spot as one of the most influential groups. https://www.tiktok.com/@brandonhetzel996?_t=ZT-8tCuYhoSe0g&_r=1 https://www.instagram.com/str8_the_clippa?igsh=cTBzNnFhenRkN3Nl&utm_source=qr https://www.facebook.com/share/19QDsWgWRV/?mibextid=wwXIfr
In 1994, some of the most classic hip-hop albums were released, and tucked in with all of them was todays topic - the debut LP from rapper O.C. titled Word...Life. This Brooklyn artist shined on this album attacking phoney rappers. While Organized Konfusion, Lord Finesse and DJ Ogee all chipped in beats, production was primarily handled by Buck Wild making this album an underrated classic. https://www.tiktok.com/@brandonhetzel996?_t=8sdHdPpF1os&_r=1 https://www.instagram.com/str8_the_clippa/profilecard/?igsh=cTBzNnFhenRkN3Nl https://www.facebook.com/share/1B41APt9E1/?mibextid=wwXIfr
One of the biggest “what ifs” in hip-hop is undoubtedly the N.W.A. affiliate The D.O.C. After the release of his debut album No One Can Do It Better, he was in a car crash severely damaging his throat and vocal cords. Though we only got one true album from The D.O.C., it is a 1989 classic. However, with Dr. Dre's production highly elevated after Straight Out Of Compton, and D.O.C. showcasing his lyrical abilities, it's not only a classic for 1989 but has since went down as one of the greatest hip-hop albums of all time. https://www.tiktok.com/@brandonhetzel996?_t=8sRpXJoycb0&_r=1 https://www.instagram.com/str8_the_clippa/profilecard/?igsh=cTBzNnFhenRkN3Nl https://www.facebook.com/share/14r9wowAjp/?mibextid=wwXIfr

Welcome to the Left of Str8 Podcasts: This is our “Left of Str8 Show” Interview Series, where we tell the stories of our amazing LGBTQ Community and fantastic Straight Ally's. It's Day Two for our Premiere Week of Season 7. Today is a Salute to the Movies with two brand new releases coming out. I was excited to interview one of my favorite queer Actors, Guillermo Diaz joining me in studio with equally exciting and queer Director Todd Verow. Their new film collaboration is “You Can't Stay Here,” and is a wonderful psychological thriller about a photographer ‘cruising' in Central Park, NY, and happens upon a murder. I'm on my 3rd viewing of this movie and it hits in a different way each time. Now playing in New York City and LA, look for a wide release soon, but you just may find Guillermo and Todd at a screening near you, keep your eyes peeled. Summary In this conversation, Guillermo Diaz and Todd Verow discuss their collaboration on the film 'You Can't Stay Here.' They talk about their backgrounds in acting and filmmaking, the creative process behind the film, and the challenges and joys of working in the industry. They also discuss the themes and techniques used in the film, including the incorporation of humor and real people. The conversation touches on their personal experiences as LGBTQ+ individuals and the importance of representation in the entertainment industry. Overall, the conversation provides insights into the making of the film and the experiences of the actors and director involved. The conversation covers the challenges of shooting scenes, the title of the film, film premieres, promotion and interacting with fans, future projects, and concludes with a set of five questions. Takeaways Shooting scenes can be challenging, especially when there are time constraints and external factors like busy locations. The title 'You Can't Stay Here' reflects the main character's struggle to find a place where he belongs. Premiering a film in different locations allows for different reactions and experiences. Promotion can be exciting, but many actors prefer the process of shooting and being on set. The actors have future projects in the works and hope to collaborate again in the future.
Welcome to the Left of Str8 Podcasts: This is our “Left of Str8 Show” Interview Series, where we tell the stories of our amazing LGBTQ Community and fantastic Straight Ally's. It's Day Two for our Premiere Week of Season 7. Today is a Salute to the Movies with two brand new releases coming out. I have been a fan of Guy Pearce since “Priscilla Queen of the Desert,” and I jumped at the opportunity to speak with the Director of the new psychological horror film, “Sunrise,” Andrew Baird. I was also able to talk to two of the films stars, Alex Pettyfer, who I have loved since his movie, “I Am Number Four,” and Kurt Yeager, who has been on some of my favorite television series. (unfortunately Guy was unavailable, but I'll get you my pretty sometime soon.) Summary In this conversation, I talk with the Director and two Actors from the new film, “Sunrise.” It's a psychological horror take on the Vampyre mythology. Set in the Pacific Northwest but filmed in Northern Ireland, the landscapes and cinematography are out of this world. Director Andrew Baird has done world building with his Sci Fi Fantasy film “Zone 414,” and done intense character development with actor turned singer, turned actor again, Machine Gun Kelly. Andrew is a master storyteller and knows how to control a set. Alex Pettyfer was not going to make any typical Vampire movie, he wanted to bring the deep brooding characterizations and even cut most of his lines written for the part. Kurt Yeager takes the films theme of fear to heart, playing the town sheriff that is caught between opposing forces. You are going to enjoy this movie opening in theatres on January 19 and available to stream as well.

Takeaways Rob Madge's one-person show, My Son's a Queer, but what can you do?, explores their journey in the theater industry and the importance of family. The show is a love letter to Rob's parents and aims to create a shared experience with the audience.

Musical theater, in particular, has the potential to shape the future by reflecting the diversity and inclusivity of society.

Today joining me in studio is Jake Monaco, a maestro of melodies, who has left an indelible mark on the world of film composition both of the animated and 2 d variety. Jake has worked on some amazing projects from studios like Pixar and Disney. Jake's journey has taken him from rocking in a band during his college years to taking a deep dive into music through intensive music study programs and mentorship that has led to an impressive career. He has orchestrated the musical landscapes for hit animated and other movies, from Brian Cranston and Annette Benning to my fave AbFab Girls, to talking Cars and Forks. So Let's get into my need for unnecessary puns and delve into the rhythm of Jake's journey, exploring the notes that have shaped the cinematic experiences we all can now cherish, and welcome to the Left of Str8 show for the first time, the handsome and talented Mr. Jake Monaco.

In this conversation, Jake Monaco discusses his passion for helping the world and providing for those less fortunate. He also shares his ideal date day at Disneyland or Disney World. Takeaways Being involved early in the production process allows for better collaboration and understanding of the project's vision.
