EARTHGANG

So if you're into that indie R&B... alternative hip-hop especially with an influx of canadian content and local plays that's probably for you it's named after the program heir apparent just keyword search that includes cgsw if you really want to nail it if you can't find the link just shoot me a text and i'll send you the link 403-220-3991 be here for another half hour we'll get things warmed up for joan as She hosts the Spin Evolution from 4 to 6, but we'll delve back into the mix here.

We've got some Earthgang, Little Dragon, and Spillage Village here.

Deep Blue.

We'll be right back.

We...

Really delved into that Front Yard FM mix for a while, but the last few tracks bringing us out of it, very fun.

Some Marvin Gaye, some Earthgang, some Spillage Village, into, like I just mentioned, Vic Mensa, which just dropped this past Friday.

It's actually a mixtape from 2013, but in the trend that is...

If it's not out immediately, it should be out like any second, basically.

I worked on a music video with the musician Johnny Venus, who used to be part of Earthgang.

And he made a song called Sarah Tonin.

Should be out now on like Vimeo and YouTube.

Yeah.

And, you know, got a, got a play of the Cool Me Down song by EarthGang, which accompanied the photography at the end of the conference.

And I love watching people at conferences trying to loosen up and, and dance.

It was so awkward, but I loved it.

Shout out to Fan Thomas.

Fanto says, "EarthGang has one of the most versatile hip hop catalogs to date.

Their concepts, productions, flows, instrumentation, program melodies, the mixing is great." I, I mean, I love EarthGang.

You know, we were covering EarthGang when they were still at Hampton.

I think they might've still been at Hampton, uh, back in Brooklyn Bodega when I was editor-in-chief at Brooklyn Bodega.

You know, we did a interview with, I got an interview with...

Well, shout out to River Flow.

She was the one who interview- uh, interviewed them on, on purpose, but I greenlit a edit, a interview with EarthGang in 2010 [laughs] I think.

um Craig Davison from The Office he was really good he was a fun interview um We even had interviews at the stations during COVID.

So I remember interviewing Earthgang.

Earthgang was a really fun interview over Instagram Live during COVID.

But then also when I was in Albany, like I said, we had a lot of local people.

So I was interviewing fashion designers and other artists.

Exactly.

Now the lawsuit only references one song, EarthGang's "You Gotta," but it's not clear if he's claiming rights to the composition or the recording.

So Pharrell's legal team is basically saying the whole thing is so vague they can't even respond.

That's bold.

coach uh is is obviously a great coach and he can put you in situations to succeed um and yeah going into year 10 i think i can have one of my best years of my career for sure and i'm looking forward to that and um and like i said just one of the biggest things was was the group of guys um that were here it's a great group of guys but at the same time they they'll fight for each other and they're they're big time competitors and to be a part of something like that um this late into my career, I guess, or it's gonna be a lot of fun.

So there's a quote from Earthgang that I've used a few times on this lovely podcast platform that we have.

I do not chase, I just attract.

What you put in, you get back.

Because, listen, we're only talking about Overcast because he's getting soup, not because of the music.

We don't say that he's like Earthgang.

Earthgang sounds eerily reminiscent to some Outkast music.

Like, that's not the game that we even playing.

We just talking about the name.

He's got Parallel.

He's got Earthgang.

He's got Pell, Baroque, Masterpiece, Frank Moody, like all these different people popping all these songs.

And I'm just like, fuck yeah.
