The Alchemist

Can't get away from it.

It's amazing, but number one, still gotta go to Freddy Gibbs and the Alchemist with Alfredo.

It's gotta be Alfredo still.

I...

Like, there's a few really good moments from that concert.

Like, one of them is the, y'all want Alchemist? Uh-oh.

You want the Alchemist to rap? He's like, all right, all right.

He plays the song.

I have my list.

We're going to start with Erykah Badu, The Alchemist, and Steve Lacey.

And this is To the Moon on the Rogue Pops program.

With detail six, stick around.

And she's an artist based out of kind of folky sort of plays in a rock band as well, but out of Virginia, I think it is, the United States.

And Erykah

Badu, The Alchemist, featuring Steve Lacey, The Moon or Plan C from Before the World Blows.

And a pretty interesting release from Erykah Badu.

One time, one

time

for your fucking mind One time, one time, I'ma say it again Yo, can you hear it? Yeah Can you feel it? Yeah Can you really, really feel it? Yeah Hip-hop, hip-hop, and we on the grind Y'all know who it is, Primo and the Alchemists

Yo cream, let me step from out the tables, the crowd is locked We let the horses out the stables and trampling King of the beats and sampling on steel wheels Heavy machinery I'm handling, at this point there is no turning back You see the life in the lamppost and the stage starts turning black Smoke blowing from the crowd, somebody burning passion Dope jumping out the pot, I had to stir it back DJ premieres of religions Stuck in a b-boy pose, I appear in a position Techniques and MPs, I'm gearing up the kitchen Scream on the mic when they near enough to listen Real shit, your face drop, this isn't K-pop.

When I say we do not, you better say stop.

Sometimes I go listen to Pusha T, Daytona.

Like sometimes I listen to Freddie Gibbs, you know, and the Alchemist.

It all depends on my mood for that day.

Your time in Japan, first off, great choices.

I was listening to No Dope on Sundays by Saha the Prince.

And I'm pissed because that's his only album he's ever put out, which is a phenomenal album.

I also listened to the Larry June and Currency, the Alchemist albums, Sparrow Staircases.

Then I was listening to Budding of Proof, Benny the Butcher.

I'll try to get through it quickly.

We got Afro, Angelo Moda, Bartesian Water and Smoke Dope 2016, Boo Haven, Boozy Badass and Sea Murder, Chassé, Zarface and Frankie Pulitzer, E-40, Erykah Badu and The Alchemist, Fat Joe, GT, Hetty One, Joe Prophecy, Jayworthy and George Clinton, Kerr, Lance Foe, Lim, Mike D, Night Lavelle, NoLimitTC, Rodimiz and Mahershala Ali, Rod Wave, TheGodfahim and Nico JP, The Diplomats aka Dipset, Trippie Redd, Vori, Young Roto, Young Thug and the YSL roster, YSN Flow, and then we have a few EPs as well from Flavor, Michael Mills or McKill Mills, Trecht, Rucci, and lastly, our very own Terry V dropped his EP Cycles this week.

Definitely worth a listen as well as everything else we're going to talk about today.

First release of the week, let's talk about Trippie Redd with Hashtag NDA.

You know what I mean?

Do you think there's less ego with producers, like you or Alchemist kind of thing, and the artists just trip out? Like the, like the-

I mean, I can't-

...

Yeah

... follow that shit, man.

Is, is that what led to when you did a project with Alchemist? Like his, you're both great producers, but you like, you both enjoy rapping, and you rap well.

100.
