The whole crew from is all together in person for an expansive deep dive into the cultural touchstones that shaped a generation. In this episode, we move beyond surface-level takes to dissect the complex legacy of Eddie Murphy's iconic 1982–1992 film run, specifically examining Arsenio Hall's crucial role in sustaining Murphy's momentum during that era. We also turn up the heat on our recurring music debates. We face the tough questions: Does Ludacris have a true "classic" album, and how do the legendary discographies of Toni Braxton and Donell Jones stack up against one another? We also pay respects to the 30-year legacy of UGK's Ridin Dirty, analyzing how Bun B and Pimp C fundamentally shifted the trajectory of Southern hip-hop. Beyond the music, we tackle the heavy hitters of pop culture—from the mysterious "Oscar Curse" that haunts award-winning actors to the ongoing discourse surrounding the need for a unified Juneteenth anthem. Plus, we discuss the A Different World reboot and the evolving struggle between maintaining celebrity privacy in the age of social media. 0:00 I Only Listen to 90s Music Intro 0:09 Cultural Significance and Costs of Prom Celebrations 3:44 Nostalgic Reflections on Music and Memories from the 2000s 7:12 Eddie Murphy's Career and Arsenio Hall's Role in Saving Coming to America 19:18 Rest in Peace to Peabo Bryson and his many slept on hits 25:14 Whtiney Houston and The Making of Heartbreak Hotel 29:08 TLC, Bone Thugs N Harmony, Nostalgia, and Impact of 90s Hip-Hop and R&B Soundtracks 33:47 Is Ludcaris really slept on as a rapper? 39:16 LA Reid says the best Laface album is Donell Jones.

After a lengthy absence, B. Cox returns to review hip-hop legend T.I.'s explosive fourth album King as it turns 20.After stepping onto the scene and making himself known with his debut album, 2001's I'm Serious, the Atlanta rap star made further waves and saw larger success with his sophomore and junior albums, 2003's Trap Muzik and 2004's Urban Legend, respectively. He was looking to take the next step with this effort and make a claim as the professed "King Of The South" at a time when Atlanta hip-hop made its way to being at the epicenter of the industry. The album featured an all-star cast of producers and featured artist. It was produced by the likes of DJ Toomp, Mannie Fresh, Jus Blaze, The Neptunes, Kevin Mack, Nick Fury, Kevin "Khao" Cates and Swizz Beats while featuring artists such as UGK, Young Jeezy, Common, Young Dro, B.G., Young Buck, Pharrell and Jamie Foxx among others.The album's release coincided with the release three days later of the feature film and cult classic ATL, which was T.I.'s feature film debut and it also served as the de facto soundtrack. The album had four power-packed singles including the smash lead single "What You Know", which served as the movie's default theme. It was a huge success commercially, selling over 500,000 units the first week and is RIAA-certified 2x platinum. It solidified T.i. as a megastar and a major player in not only Atlanta's rap atmosphere, but the industry at-large for years to come.Show NotesOkayPlayer: The Once and Expeditious King: T.I. on 'King' 20 Years Later, His Latest Album and Morehttps://www.okayplayer.com/the-once-and-expeditious-king-ti-on-king-20-years-later-his-latest-album-and-more/1426138Yahoo: T.I. says it's 'wild to think that' his album 'King' is 20 years oldhttps://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/music/articles/t-says-wild-think-album-100000151.htmlWSB 95.5 Atlanta Talk & Music: Atlanta icon T.I. celebrates 20th anniversary of King album and its undeniable impacthttps://www.wsbradio.com/news/local/atlanta-icon-ti-commemorates-20th-anniversary-king-album-its-undeniable-impact/XD322ZV6JBHI5FJRHTJQOSPU5Y/Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
Send a textA 308-pound prospect just clocked a 4.5 and we couldn't stop talking about it. That jaw-dropper kicks off a fast, funny ride through combine metrics, ten-yard splits, and what freakish athleticism says about training, leverage, and the stories men tell themselves about height, speed, and identity. From there, the barbershop energy takes over: who gets seen first at the club, why short kings win on timing and charm, and the unglamorous truth about backseat logistics and calf cramps.Then we crack open the vault. Childhood scents and number-three tubs. Dish soap bubble baths that itch for days. Strict house rules about curfews and never eating at someone else's table. It all sets the stage for the music canon: greatest remixes (Flavor In Ya Ear, Quiet Storm, Fiesta), best posse cuts, and a love letter to Southern hip‑hop's backbone—OutKast, Goodie Mob, UGK, So So Def, No Limit, and Cash Money. We make the case for Big Boi's underrated pen, dream of an OutKast Super Bowl in Atlanta, and admit that some albums never left rotation.Finally, we step into the arena where nobody agrees and everyone's right: the GOAT debate. Jay‑Z for longevity and blueprint-building. Eminem for surgical wordplay and sheer technicality. KRS‑One for foundational lyricism and live-fire mic control. The criteria—impact, consistency, quotables, innovation—change with every verse someone remembers by heart. We land the plane with weekend rituals: cord-cutting math, Apple TV thrillers, Prime sleepers, Netflix's latest, and a clutch snack rec that tastes like movie night should.Tap play for the jokes, stay for the arguments, and bring your list. Who's your GOAT, and which remix belongs in the hall of fame?

What up Fellas! Anfang der 90er war der Horizont in der HipHop-Welt lediglich zweigeteilt; alle medial und kommerziell relevanten Rapper stammten entweder aus dem LA-County oder dem Big Apple. Der Süden wurde damals sträflich übersehen und Künstler wie UGK oder die Geto Boys bekamen zwar teilweise Probs aus der Szene, aber die große mediale Aufmerksamkeit blieb zunächst aus... 1992 trafen zwei High School-Schüler aus Atlanta aufeinander und eröffneten in den nächsten Jahren die kommerziellen Pforten für die Künstler der Südstaaten. Bei den Source Awards 1995 wurden sie trotz Auszeichnung noch ausgebuht, dennoch entwickelte die HipHop-Welt nachfolgend ein Verständnis ihres wertvollen Beitrages für die noch recht auf ihre Strukturen versteiften Strukturen. In der neuen Folge "Rap gehört zum guten Ton" sprechen wir über OutKast's Debüt-Album "Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik", sowie über die tieferen Themen des Albums und den nachhaltigen Impact dieses Albums. Also... Checkt gerne die neue Folge „Rap gehört zum guten Ton“ aus! Habt ein schönes Wochenende! Stay strapped und seid lieb zueinander!
Der FM4 Hip Hop Lesekreis – das sind vier Menschen: Ole Weinreich, Mahdi Rahimi, Trishes und Natalie Brunner. Unser Freund und Kollege Ole Weinreich ist letzte Woche viel zu früh gestorben.Es gibt wohl kaum ein Genre, in dem der Tod so präsent ist wie im Hip-Hop, aber dennoch haben wir uns entschlossen, im Gedenken an unseren Freund eine äußerst lebensbejahende Nummer heute zu besprechen.Auch in der Hoffnung, dass, wenn wir darüber sprechen, warum er diese Nummer geliebt hat, etwas von seiner Brillanz und seinem Humor durchscheint.„International Players Anthem" von OutKast und UGK aus dem Jahr 2007FM4 Homebase 17.02.2026 20 Uhr
In this episode Houston legend Mike D — the man many call the original King of Lean — unpacks the true story behind codeine culture in the American South. Before “lean” was a mainstream rap flex… before double cups and purple memes… there was a street-level hustle that changed Houston forever. Mike D breaks down how promethazine with codeine went from a quiet substitute for heroin to a full-blown cultural phenomenon — influencing DJ Screw, the Screwed Up Click, and icons like Pimp C, Bun B, and Lil Wayne. What started as something passed around on the corner turned into an underground empire moving thousands of dollars a day — long before law enforcement even understood what was happening. In this interview, we cover: * How Mike D became Houston's go-to supplier * The birth of “drank” culture inside DJ Screw's house * The economics of the codeine black market * Street wars between Houston neighborhoods * Texas prison brutality and plantation-style incarceration * The real story behind Pimp C's death * Addiction, droughts, and what happens when supply dries up * How music and drugs fed off each other to build a movement This isn't just a drug story. It's a story about culture, capitalism, addiction, loyalty, betrayal — and how one underground market reshaped Southern hip-hop forever. From Astroworld fights to state prison bids… from Mercedes at 16 to moving cases of syrup… Mike D tells it all. Go Support Mike!

Ian Von sits down with Grammy-nominated singer, songwriter, and Love King Raheem DeVaughn for a raw convo on artistry, independence, and love as a lifestyle. Raheem breaks down why he's often seen as an “underground king,” his path from background singer for Ginuwine to respected solo artist, and how he's stayed consistent and independent for 20+ years. He talks creative process (rarely writing lyrics down), balancing sensuality with socially conscious “edutainment,” his community work, and why his best song is still ahead of him. They also touch on the state of R&B, the streaming era's flood of music, live performance strategy, generational influences, and dream collabs. If you love real R&B and game from an OG still ascending, this episode delivers.
In this episode of Hip Hop What IFS, we dive deep into a pivotal cultural debate: why didn't Houston become the permanent "Mecca" of hip hop instead of Atlanta? We are joined by Houston resident and hip hop head Cornelius Anthony to break down the massive legacy of the city's pioneers. We discuss how J. Prince and Rap-A-Lot Records established the blueprint for Southern dominance with the Geto Boys, featuring legends like Scarface, Willie D, and the late Bushwick Bill. The conversation explores the city's unique independent spirit, from the "Screwed Up Clique" led by the iconic DJ Screw to the mid-2000s explosion of Swisher House stars like Mike Jones, Paul Wall, and Slim Thug, and the early groundwork laid by Bun B and Pimp C of UGK. We also address the tragic reality of Houston's "Gift and a Curse"—the untimely loss of several legends in their prime, including Fat Pat, Big Hawk, Big Mo, and Pimp C, and how those losses impacted the city's national momentum. The episode highlights Houston's unmatched independent hustle, noting that while Atlanta artists often sought corporate deals with LaFace or So So Def, Houston artists like Z-Ro, Lil' Keke, and Sauce Walka prioritized local dominance and ownership. Finally, we look at how the torch is being carried today by global superstars like Travis Scott and Megan Thee Stallion, while local favorites like Propane, Lil' Mario, and Quiet Money continue to keep the original Houston sound alive.

“Even though we were signed to a major record label distributed all around the country and around the world, we still moved as independent artists” ~ Bun B In this powerful new episode of Skipping Class, Lalaa Shepard of The Progress Report Media Group sits down with Southern hip-hop icons Bun B and Cory Mo — two Texas legends who've built one of the most respected legacies in rap culture. Born and raised in Port Arthur, Texas, Bun B came up alongside the late, great Pimp C as one half of the legendary group UGK (Underground Kingz). Known for their authenticity, storytelling, and southern pride, UGK became a foundation for generations of artists. After Pimp C's passing, Bun continued to honor that legacy through solo projects, teaching, activism, and entrepreneurship — most notably with his nationally celebrated Trill Burgers brand. Cory Mo, a Houston native and longtime UGK affiliate, came up producing for Pimp C and other Southern heavyweights before relocating to Atlanta to continue building his career. From behind the boards to the mic, Cory Mo has worked with some of the biggest names in hip-hop — from Big K.R.I.T. and Killer Mike to 8Ball & MJG — while keeping the Trill sound alive. Together, the two break down the process behind their 2025 joint album “Mo Trill” — a project that bridges eras with features from Scotty ATL, Akeem Ali, LaRussell, Monaleo, and more. They open up about staying independent, navigating the music business, and why Southern culture continues to define hip-hop. Bun B also shares exclusive stories about being one of the few artists to record with both Beyoncé and Jay-Z, creating “Give Me That” with Webbie, recording the same day in Atlanta with Jeezy and Gucci Mane, and how the success of Trill Burgers reflects decades of consistency, patience, and progress.

For the past several years, rapper A.B. Raps has been one of the most unique up-and-coming emcees in the Underground Hip-Hop scene of Houston, Texas. In a scene more commonly associated with artists such as the Geto Boys, UGK, and DJ Screw among others, A.B. Raps has made a name for himself incorporating witty lyrics and introspective themes into his music. Pulling influence from legendary Hip-Hop artists such as Eminem, Nas, and artists hailing from his native Texas. Likewise, A.B. Raps has worked with artists such as Chop the Father, NVY JONEZ LKR, D-Rell, and Riverside-based producer Accosta the Man. A.B.'s attention to nuance and detail is not illustrated through his appreciation for classic Boom Bap production, but his ability to craft heartfelt songs that resonate with listeners. In today's episode, A.B. joins Step Off! Radio to discuss the inspirations behind his music, growing up in Houston, Texas. As well as his path to becoming an emcee. Likewise, we also got to discuss his brand-new album 'Leatherfaces'. A collaborative album exclusively produced by Accosta the Man. As well as discuss what the future holds for his music.

The surviving member of UGK details the fateful way the song came together with OutKast including how their iconic video almost didn't happen. Bun B sings the praises of his UGK partner Pimp C, who died six months after "Int'l Players Anthem" was released as a single.

Plus, the rapper notes how impactful the video has been on the song's legacy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Since the 1990s, many of Houston's African American residents have customized cars and customized the sound of hip hop. Cars called “slabs” swerve a slow path through the city streets, banging out a distinctive local music that paid tribute to those very same streets and neighborhoods. Folklorist and Houston native Langston Collin Wilkins studies slab culture and the “screwed and chopped” hip hop that rattles the slabs and serves as the culture's soundtrack. Wilkins shows us how sonic creativity turns a space—a collection of buildings and streets—into a place that is known, respected, and loved. In this show we hear the slow, muddy, psychedelic sounds of DJ Screw and The Screwed Up Click, including rappers such as Lil Keke, Fat Pat, Big Hawk, and UGK–as well as songs by Geto Boys, Willie Dee, Swishahouse, Point Blank, Biggie Smalls, and MC T Tucker & DJ Irv.

Robert Greene is an author known for his books on strategy, power, mastery, and seduction. The 48 Laws of Power, perhaps Greene's most famous book, found a particularly passionate audience among rappers and musicians, as the book resonates with the challenges and dynamics of the music industry. After 50 Cent read it, he approached Greene and the two collaborated on The 50th Law. It's been mentioned in songs by Jay Z, Kanye West, UGK, Central Cee, MF DOOM, and Drake. ------ Thank you to the sponsors that fuel our podcast and our team: LMNT Electrolytes https://drinklmnt.com/tetra ------ House of Macadamias https://www.houseofmacadamias.com/tetra ------ Squarespace https://squarespace.com/tetra
