<I><B>Soulection Radio will be moving back one hour starting next Saturday and will go on air from 11am-2pm (PST)***</i></b>

This week's edition of Soulection Radio was really essential. We had a pioneer and important individual who is responsible for many great things going on in our music culture today. He goes by Daddy Kev which most of you may already be familiar with. He founded the legendary weekly event Low End Theory  and co-founded Alpha Pup Records/Distribution. Kev dropped a 40 minute set that made us feel like we we're in the time warp in Stanley Kubrick's space hub from '2001: A Space Odyssey'. 

Kev made sure to sprinkle all the classics as well as some forthcoming unreleased material from who knows who. Things got really interesting when Kev and Joe jumped in to the interview portion  during the 2nd hour to discuss everything from experiences at Low End Theory, mastering (sound engineering education), the current state of today's music culture, favorite artists to work with, and even a Low End Theory festival that is coming this year. Definitely an educational experience! Joe Kay also showcased some forthcoming material that is too exclusive to be identified (track ID'd ~ Unknown - Untitled) but stay tuned and we will be announcing some of these next artists/releases. We'll catch you next Saturday at our new time.

Soulection Radio Show #159 w/ Daddy Kev

Awol One & Daddy Kev - Revolution

After a brief hiatus, Shots Fired is back for its Burnout Episode. Daddy Kev, co-founder of Low End Theory and founder of Alpha Pup, joins Nocando and Jeff to discuss Nocando's career and new record. Jeff interviews Nocando about his battle years, his early love of B-Legit and Yukmouth of Luniz, and his evolution as an artist. 

In addition, they discuss new albums from YG, Vince Staples, and MadGibbs, the gospel of Suga Free, and Benzino getting shot. 

Go purchase "Jimmy the Burnout" so Nocando can purchase a Bentley with Naruto's face emblazoned on it.

Awol One & Daddy Kev - Rhythm

(thanks Krys!)

livin' it up, in this life of mine
i only get one, get it right this time
it blows my mind, i'm so confined
to the routine of this local grind
and time and time again, i find a place to unwind and vent
my nights are spent, with a room inside of it
thinking of  all the words that i can twist
my mind is fixed but i'm convinced,
that i exist like nitrogen,
unseen, unheard, no taste, no smell, though i'm alive, you're blind to it
floating away is a known mistake, 
if you don't relate that holds brakes
on whatever it means to have "social grace," 
you ever consider the toll it takes?
from work to home don't notice a face
seclusion's just  stone's throw away
 a recluse, but I'm open to change
just don't bother to  quote what i say, 
it's probable i'll start going insane,  
if i notice you're throwing my notebooks away
there's a good chance that i'll be going outside, 'cause i woke feelin' so hopeful today
poetry has me obsessed
openly madly depressed
void totally of happiness 
although living woefully puts me at my best
and it may not make sense,
'cause i'm guilty of  building this fence
addicted to writing, i find  more inviting than vibing out,  and just chilling with friends

these four walls are closing in,
i can feel them, growing nearer
i'm not where i'd hoped to get
but the picture's…getting clearer
i have thoughts, couldn't hold them in
a sensitive mind, i'm a feeler
still not where i hoped to get
but the picture's…getting clearer  

alone in my room,
molding a tune
don't know what else  i'd supposedly do
looking outside, there's a golden hue
the sun's rises unlike moments  with you
in love, not showin' so true
her eyes are  blue and they go with my mood
i'd spoil her like she's overdue
but i'm awkward in person, don't know what to do
there's you and i, no useful guide
and i'm usually quite the unusual guy
but i'd leave it open for you to decide
assuming aside, 
the beautiful ride, is speeding…
...nobody in range
that got me to say, that i'm probably strange
and now…feeling so odd that he changed
i blame loneliness that got me this way

these four walls are closing in,
i can feel them, growing nearer
i'm not where i'd hoped to get
but the picture's…getting clearer
i have thoughts, couldn't hold them in
a sensitive mind, i'm a feeler
still not where i hoped to get
but the picture's…getting clearer

With an overwhelming response from the last "People's Choice" show, we had to bring it back and allow you to choose the track selections for this show. We used Instagram, Facebook, & Twitter to get your submissions/requests and here we are. Such a smooth/nice mix of tracks. I even set aside a segment where I had my 2 guys behind Soulection TV talk about their experiences with Soulection and how it is chopping up the footage and seeing things that many don't.

On the other hand, I was contacted by my good friend Daddy Kev over from Low End Theory/Alpha Pup and he said he had this Nujabes Tribute mix that he made and wanted to see what I thought of it. I listened to it on my way up to Red Bull Studios and fell in love with it and had to include it on this show. I figured since we did a Dilla Tribute that it was only right that we do a Nujabes tribute as well right? Much respect to these legends. We hope you enjoy. 

Catch you next week.
