Tonight's episode is different than usual because it's our annual holiday hang and we're bringing you a special holiday treat this year. A full-on Strange Famous takeover. That's right we got the whole damn crew in the house. The house run by Runt, The Brick Box Brewery in Tucson, Arizona. So enjoy this special episode of The DOD45 Show as we welcome the Strange Famous Records crew for a night of laughter, creativity and rapping warfare. We'll first dive into a holiday themed game show of the Meadowbrook Squares, where my co-host Adrienne Taeoalii will compete against Runt of Jivin' Scientists with the wit assist of the Strange Famous artists answering hilarious and thought-provoking holiday questions. From Cas One's sharp-tongue wit to Uncle Sage's matter-of-fact thinking, this game is sure to be a riot. We'll then get into a festive game of Win, Lose or Draw where Adrienne and Runt will go head-to-head again, accompanied by our special Tucson local guests Marley B and Donovan White. They'll each show off their drawing skills, conveying holiday themed images and phrases to the Strange Famous crew, likely resulting in plenty of laughter, misinterpretations and questionable drawings. And finally, to cap off the night, we have a highly anticipated rap battle between the lyrical titan's Sage Francis and Mopes AKA Prolyphic. These two wordsmiths will trade off with scissor-like cuts and tears, delivering mind-blowing performances. It's a battle for the ages that you just cannot skip. So spike that eggnog with whatever you deem necessary, slip into your ugliest holiday sweater, cozy up by the fire and tune in to The DOD45 Show for this ultimate Strange Famous holiday extravaganza. It's a night of hip-hop hilarity, artistic expression and rapping warfare that you won't soon forget!

The rap duo, Metermaids, are not from Rhode Island but they do have a strong connection to the state. On this episode I chat with Sentence and Swell about the origin of their group, the variation of sounds they achieve from album to album, and how they linked up with Strange Famous Records. Speaking of that, Metermaids will be performing at The Met on June 8th alongside labelmates Sage Francis, Cas One, Early Adopted, Mopes, Jesse The Tree, and Storm Davis. Make sure you're in the room for this as there's some special stuff happening that evening. I will see you there! Interlude song order: "Blackout Baby" from their EP, Smash Smash Bang "Get Down" from their album, Rooftop Shake "House On Fire" from their album, We Brought Knives "Quiet On The Set feat. Sage Francis" from their album, A Line In The Sky "All The Smoke feat. Sage Francis" from their album, A Line In The Sky // Interview recorded May 29, 2024 via Google Meet // Intro music by Cedros // Hosted by James Toomey //
This is a rewind episode from episode 25 which originally aired on Jan. 23, 2022. Tai & Adrienne give a 10 minute intro & then the entire episode of the original Mope's interview, including Tai & Adrienne intros & outros plays. Episode deetz: Tai & Adrienne have a discussion with Mopes, formerly known as Prolyphic from the Strange Famous Records fam on this episode of DOD45 . While Tai draws a stag with owls in its antlers, they have a well-rounded chat, which at times is a lot of fun, like Mopes' heartache being a New York Jets fan & Tai's heartache being a Utah Jazz fan. Of course they discuss Mopes' recent EP & his upcoming album release, but the conversation also dips into some discussion about racism, the 80s tv series Alf, Mopes' creative approach when it comes to making music, Madonna's book Sex, accidental deaths on movie sets, Mike Tyson's struggles & growth, working with Chicago emcee Robust, safety precautions on movie sets and they share some of their favorite lyrics. There are many other topics they cover so rather than read it here, just watch the whole episode.

This episode features the first, of many to come, segment hosted by Sage Francis, in partnership with Strange Famous Records, as of now, titled "Sage's Social Media Lurk".

This episode also features some poignant discussion with Eligh about restructuring how touring looks, fatherhood in his 40s, family life, the stress getting tattooed is having on his body, and realizing his ability to manifest the things he wants in his life. Some mini-discussions include Robin Williams, Nathan Lane, the 80's Los Angeles Raiders, McDonald's happy meal toys, Dukes of Hazard, Kendrick Lamar, Picaboo Street, Honey Boo Boo, Bon Jovi, Tom Cruise, Legend, making art on an Ipad and so much more. It's an honor to have him on the show and will hopefully serve as a gateway to even more guests from the Living Legend crew.

On this special holiday episode of the DOD45 show, episode 41, Tai & Adrienne have a chat with Strange Famous Records captain, Sage Francis while Tai sketches him a Grinch/Jack Skellington/Curious George/Cocomelon inspired drawing. On this holiday-themed episode of the DOD45 Show Sage Francis returns to share in our holiday discussion while we also discuss the 20th anniversary repressing of his album Personal Journals and it's selling out within 15 minutes of it's release. Sage also reiterates his valid position regarding Spotify and he also shares a hilarious story of the time his grandma took him to see the movie Gremlins when he was 8. They deliberate over lyrical content of 2 Live Crew & other rap groups of the 90s and how that music is looked at in today's era. Sage shares his top 3 favorite holiday rap songs and 3 favorite holiday movies which somehow ventures into a discussion about Lucinda Dickey, the movie Ninja 3 and MacGruber. Sage may spark controversy with his position on Die Hard being labeled as a Christmas movie and he also has a message for Mr. Dibbs via our Question From Dibbs segment, regarding his beard-clippings which were obtained by Dibbs at a Scribble Jam many years ago. And finally some very exciting announcements are made regarding Sage's long awaited podcast, The Hard Lurk, upcoming Strange Famous projects and most exciting, a Strange Famous festival in Denver in 2023? Yes please! You'll have to join us to hear more about that. It's just a few nights before Christmas Eve, and we like to start up a fire, slip into something cozy, gather 'round with our family & friends and do something festive together. Tai has created that "festive something" for you with this episode & opted to turn it into a drinking game with prize give-aways. Make yourself a drink, turn on the YouTube live-chat, get comfy and join us for our holiday-themed episode with Sage Francis. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/artbytai/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/artbytai/support
ATTENDEES Jesse The Tree, Sage Francis, Keith Rollins, Daniel Olney AGENDA New Business Talk about the origination of Strange Famous Records and what vision characterizes it. Talk about the influence it has had and the stellar 2022 releases. Intro and Outro music from Jesse The Tree's album Pigeon Man.
Join Chris in conversation with hip hop legend, Sage Francis, about passions, process… well, really about life and music! Sage Francis is widely considered one of our generation's greatest lyricists. His career derives mainly from gifted wordplay which creates vivid narratives to instigate as well as inspire, but since it often derives from an accumulation of public disdain and personal turmoil, it's more about storming the castle than about watching the throne. Dubbed as the “forefather of indie-hop,” Francis originally earned acclaim in the early 2000's by winning the most highly coveted titles of the emcee battle circuit. With little to no funding, Francis sustained himself by selling his innovative “Sick of” mixtapes, all made by hand on the floor of his Providence, RI apartment. These were essentially bootleg compilations full of select recordings from his 12” vinyl singles, demo sessions, live performances and radio freestyles. The popularity of these tapes birthed Strange Famous Records (SFR); a meager, one-man operation in 1999. Despite having no official distribution, Francis' unique brand of music spread like wildfire via the advent of file sharing networks. This resulted in him attaining a massive cult-like following around the world, creating a demand for his albums and live performances at which point the bigger labels took notice. With his first studio album, Personal Journals (2002,) Francis daringly set aside the more boastful side of rap by catering to his poetic leanings and scathing socio-political commentary. In 2005 Sage Francis was the first hip-hop artist signed to Epitaph Records and soon became one of the highest selling independent artists of his genre. Rather than abandon his day-to-day grind at SFR, he channeled all of his newfound resources into it, allowing the label to expand in staff as well as roster. Having fulfilled his contract obligations with Epitaph Records, Sage Francis has returned to releasing music independently as he gears up to defeat the odds. Once again. “COPPER GONE”, Francis' 6th studio album, dropped on June 3rd, 2014 via Strange Famous Records. This indie release managed to break Billboard's Top 200 as well as iTunes top 5 for hip-hop in both the US and in the UK. In 2016 Sage Francis was granted an honorary patronage by the prestigious Trinity College in Dublin, Ireland for his contributions to literature. Francis continues to tour internationally and is developing a new group project with B. Dolan called EPIC BEARD MEN, slated for a 2018 release. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/tpq20/support

On this special edition episode, I caught up with Jesse The Tree to talk about his new album "Pigeon Man" which is coming out Friday, August 19th on Strange Famous Records. In our conversation, we cover what it was like for him to collaborate with Mopes on this project, the inspiration behind some of the songs you'll hear, what was different about the process of recording Pigeon Man, and some of the featured artists he has on the album. Speaking of that, listen to the end because Strange Famous was kind enough to let me premiere a brand new track by Jesse The Tree entitled "Bigger Badder Wolf" that features Sage Francis! // Interview recorded August 8th, 2022 at Central Falls Landing in Central Falls, RI // Intro music by Cedros // Hosted by James Toomey // /// If you enjoy the episode please leave a rating or review wherever you're listening right now! ///

In this episode, I sit down with one of my favorite rappers, Mopes... who some of you may know from his previous name Prolyphic. Through our conversation we get into the reason why he started making beats, the concepts behind his albums, and how growing up in a working middle-class family influenced his lyrics. We also get a little deeper into the breaks he's taken from music and his recent reintroduction. Speaking of that, Mopes fantastic new album "Unwound" came out in February on Strange Famous Records. You can pick this up on limited edition cassette, lathe cut 7", as a special t-shirt bundle, and digital download or stream wherever you get music.

In this episode I’m joined by Sage Francis, a rapper who was independent before claiming indie was cool. A veteran of the underground battle scene in which he won the Scribble Jam emcee battle in 2000, Sage was early in adopting a tour-heavy business model that found him relentlessly doing shows and hitting smaller markets in the 2000s. From the jump, Sage has never been afraid to occupy his own unique space in the landscape of rap music, incorporating influences from different genres of music, a rotating cast of collaborators, and a writing style that ranges from the fiercely political to the vulnerably personal. He was the first hip hop artist signed to legendary punk rock label Epitaph, and he would later go on to launch his own Strange Famous Records, where he continues to release his own projects as well as the works of other artists. Songs discussed: "Jah Didn't Kill Johnny" ('A Healthy Distrust', 2005) "Grace" ('Copper Gone,' 2014) "Doomage" feat. Brother Ali and Slug (prod. MF DOOM) (Non-Prophets "Damage" single, 2004) "Whoremonger" ('Still Sickly Business,' 2005) "Underground For Dummies" ('Human the Death Dance', 2007) Sage Francis: strangefamousrecords.com cantknocktheshuffle.com questionshiphop.com instagram.com/seandammit twitter.com/seandammit Email: cantknocktheshuffle@gmail.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Inspirational underground hip-hop artist, Sage Francis, joins Chris to discuss music as a teacher, the resonance of truth, cultural shifts, and the magic of writing.Sage Francis is CEO of Strange Famous Records, and half of the Epic Beard Men. He is widely considered one of our generation's greatest lyricists. His gifted wordplay creates vivid narratives to instigate as well as inspire, often deriving from an accumulation of public disdain and personal turmoil. Dubbed the forefather of Indie Hop, Francis originally earned worldwide acclaim in the 2000s by winning highly coveted titles in the MC battle circuit. At the advent of file-sharing, Francis' unique brand of music spread like wildfire and he gained a cult following. In 2005 Sage Francis was the first hip-hop artist signed to Epitaph Records and soon became one of the highest selling independent artists of his genre. Sage Francis has returned to releasing music independently and has a podcast in the works. For more info check out StrangeFamousRecords.com

The "Regular Guy" was struggling this week...with his allergies. Scouts honor. Week 3...or 4...whatever the hell it is now in quarantine has brought about the usual shenanigans. Banter topics include, how the NHL should resume, how California loves street hockey and ultimate frisbee, and we take listener questions live thanks to Houtzenstein and his Twitch expertise. Really, we just miss hockey and talking about it is our therapy...along with Jameson. Whiskey is your friend. Join us in the insanity. Ferda! Music courtesy of Strange Famous Records
On this week’s episode of Cascadia Hockey, a familiar voice joins the crew for a reunion. In the Western League, there are 3 players expected to apply for exceptional status at this year’s Batam draft. Is that good? And, Brandon Manning faced the music after his suspension ended. Warranted? Carter Hart is a great goalie, and may be an even better Flyer. Ferda!

In this episode of the Solecast I sit down with Kalyn of Wheelchair Sports Camp. Wheelchair Sports Camp is a hip-hop band out of Denver that makes light-hearted yet politically charged rap songs with a dope live band setup. The lead singer in the group, Kalyn is a disabled queer with a condition called osteogenesis imperfecta. Her condition is sometimes described as “fragile bones” and she has had over 100 fractures, this really took me by surprise because I have been in many marches & situations with her where shit could have easily gone sideways, but that doesn't deter her. We talk about her evolution in activism from participating in Occupy, Black Lives Matter, Standing Rock and her own personal/political journey that lead her to examine the plight of disabled people. She discusses learning about the history of disabled folk and how her music has brought her into community with disabled people all over the world. We talk about her recent tour through Mexico. She also talks about her experience as a music teacher at Youth on Records, the organization started by The Flobots. Pick up their new album "No Big Deal" out now on Strange Famous Records:
After the biggest Say Owt gig to date, Henry & Stu chat to Sage Francs and B.Dolan from Strange Famous Records. Legends of the underground hip-hop scene, they mix story-telling with hip-hop to create heartfelt, playful and political pieces. www.sayowt.co.uk
On this episode of Inside the Rapper's Studio, we discuss DopeKnife's album 1984 on Strange Famous Records. Listen to it here. DopeKNife goes in depth about his freestyling technique, and he basically drops all the knowledge about touring, marketing, and hip hop.
Sammy Warm Hands interviews two guests: Blueprint (Rhymesayers) talks about his upcoming documentary King No Crown, and Cas One discusses his Strange Famous Records debut.
Sage Francis stops by the Moodhouse and shares his story of coming up and helping create the indie hip hop scene that led to the golden era of indie hip hop and into its eventual demise. The reemergence of Strange famous records, touring overseas, rap battles, AND A TON OF OTHER SHIT.
As I get older I find myself growing to appreciate hip hop more and more. In my teens it didn't grab me in the same way punk or metal did, and naively, I shunned it. My guest on this episode is rapper B. Dolan and he, alongside Sage Francis, was one of the artists who forced me to realign my expectations of what hip hop is, was and could be.The truth of the matter is that when your exposure to a particular genre of music comes solely from mainstream sources, it can be quite difficult to find something worthwhile. Like all teenagers, I rebelled, and in doing so I rebelled against the chart and dance music which was common in between my groups of friends in high school and in my neighbourhood. I took solace in the angst of “alternative” music.A lot of that chart music was hip hop and no, it wasn't particularly good hip hop. As someone who had deliberately placed themselves outside of mainstream art, I found that when I looked back in to find some shred of meaning, all I could see were empty messages and a sense of disappointment.That's not to say that it is impossible for popular music to carry a message. Now that I'm older I can see such a view is quite patently nonsense, but in the naivety of youth I certainly felt that.So in my teens, my flirtation and subsequent rejection of hip hop was the result of two things:A) to me, the stuff that was on the radio or on MTV had nothing to say to me. I was looking for something political, something which raged and had teeth. 50 Cent, Ja Rule, Nelly and the other hip hop that circulated when those artists were at their peak, was empty to me.B) I had no one to guide me. It was easy to find people who could introduce me to new rock music. Literally no one I knew had any inkling of hip hop beyond whatever was coming out of the radio that week.For many years I lived my life ignoring hip hop, thinking that it was all violence and misogyny.About ten years ago that changed. A friend opened me up to “underground” hip hop, with Sage Francis at the head it.At the risk of coming across like a snob, I've always found the entry point for hip hop music to be quite high. Perhaps it's because I'm a snotty punk kid at heart – those short, sharp stabs of music are certainly designed to make you think, but the message is fleeting, it's difficult to hold onto before you're off onto the next song. A hip hop record is more layered and more complex, it demands the full investment of your time. It requires repeated listens and time to unfold in your head.But I appreciate them. I enjoy spending time with an album, deciphering lyrics and meanings, getting underneath the complexity of the music and living inside it.Prior to this interview it had been five years since I last saw B. Dolan play. Weirdly it was five years to the exact day, in the exact same venue. In that particular instance he was supporting Sage Francis, an artist who also happened to be responsible for introducing me to B. Dolan on Twitter some years before.Fallen House, Sunken City, which bizarrely only came out five years ago but it somehow feels longer, is an album which pulled me out of a musical slump I'd fallen into. It's an awesome record, and one of my favourites. Although I do think his new one, Kill the Wolf, might usurp that.Highlights include:Getting into fights at the Westmoreland service stationA shout out to Passion of the WeissObession with musicAn almost encyclopedic knowledge of hip hopA little bit of PrinceRecording and producing 'Kill the Wolf'B. Dolan's evolution as a songwriterB. Dolan is a super nice guy, and to hear him close with The Hunter at the show later that night was a pretty huge deal for me. Also, Buddy Peace absolutely killed it. To see an MC and a DJ work together to create such a tight live show was amazing. Honestly if you get a chance, you should see him.I hope you enjoy the episode.Featured MusicIntro: Voodoo Puppets – Electric Chair Blues (used under CC licence, you can check it out here).B.

**TO LISTEN OR DOWNLOAD SEE THE END OF THE SHOW DESCRIPTION - POST TO YOUR FACEBOOK PAGE IF YOU LOVE HIP HOP !** On this weeks celebration of independence we have: Sage Francis takes much needed time out of his ‘strange famous’ and non-stop career to share with us his “best of times” as an artist creating his new album ‘Li(f)e’. In this interview Sage discusses ‘Li(f)e’ and it’s foreign territory sonically for himself as well as those involved, lyricism, soul-searching, themes including Christopher "Little Houdini" Gaye’s prison break, working with composer French composer Yann Tiersen (Amelie soundtrack), upcoming London show, Strange Famous Records and so much more. Unbelievably essential listening for all Sage Francis fans worldwide - he even records a special message for you all. The ever prolific Ras Kass joins us live from a studio in sunny Los Angeles to discuss and promote upcoming project with Beat Junkie DJ Rhettmatic “A.D.I.D.A.S” exclusively on Conspiracy Radio. Listen as a typically rejuvenated and focused Ras Kass addresses details on A.D.I.D.A.S. and its creation and projects prior to it as well as chopping up his newfound internet/technology game with Mista Montana and speaks of plans of work off the mic for an upcoming cartoon. He also reveals an update on the much anticipated Four Horsemen project and speaks of recently seeing with Kurupt just days before this interview. Save the Ras Kass and support A.D.I.D.A.S when it drops. Buckshot steps away from daddy duties co-starring his daughter in the background to celebrate 15 years of the powerhouse that is Duck Down Records. Take a trip down memory lane with Mista Montana and Menace as we reflect and remember the creation of Black Moon and its significance today. Learn about the evolution of Black Moon between the name switching from group name Unique Image High to High Tech before finally sticking with the name we all recognise and love; Black Moon!. Buck also discusses on Black Moons sound pre Finsta, cutting the original Black Moon demo, Evil Dee’s vocal coaching, samples and the possibilities of a sequel to Enta Da Stage. In addition we are also given nuggets on upcoming Duckdown releases including Random Axe's highly anticipated project and Buckshot's forthcoming book. QN5 Records is one of the most expressive and creative record labels in the history of hip hop. Their roster of artists and musical output remains unrivaled as they reach their 10 year anniversary. Head honcho and all round stand up guy, Tonedeff, joins us for a humorous exploration of QN5's history and their scheduled forthcoming release of ten albums in 2010. Far from a tame interview, this 30 minutes captures perfectly the wit and reality rap that Tonedeff and his colleagues create. Watch for the vintage Tonedeff freestyle at the end! Weapon Aid is Braille’s latest weapon (pardon the pun) and this time features the now single father at his darkest hour. Unlike any other of Braille’s album prior, Weapon Aid is an album engaged with intensity, soul searching, courage and above all freedom. Hear Braille like you’ve never heard him before on Conspiracy Radio in an all revealing stripped down, naked and inspiring exploration of Weapon Aid and his internal hardships creating it. Braille speaks to Mista Montana and Menace about Weapon Aids creation; including him “wrestling particular tracks”, healing, stepping up artistically and growing as an artist, new material including a collaboration with Evidence, his desire to seek different and bigger sounding produced songs and of course his new label Talking Textures which is in conjunction with Syntax Records among many other topics! Celebrate independence with one of Hip Hops most overlooked and criminally slept on secret weapons. A must listen for Braille fans and lovers of Hip Hop with a message Jimmy Powers has just released, what will no doubt be, one of the strongest albums of 2010.So it was a pleasure to welcome the man himself onto the show and get an essential history lesson, as we explore such themes as La Coka Nostra, working with Copywrite, the sucess of indie labels and more in an interview as refreshing as Jimmy's album itself. AND THAT'S NOT ALL! We world premiere first-play new non-leaked tracks from Necro's adventurous new album "DIE!" released May 18th worldwide. Necro leaps out of the pigeon hole you put him in on this new album and it will no doubt prove to be an essential album purchase for 2010.
