Episode 10-Meet John L-Illmatic Review

New episode of The Light!

This week John L, Det, and Scott discuss a pivotal year in Hollywood (1983 - 1984)where critical features were released that were extremely influential to Hip Hop culture in Wild Style, Style Wars, and Beat Street. Just the mere mention of these films sparks nostalgia and reminiscence of a time period where b-boy'ing, MC'ing, Graffiti writing, and DJ'ing were being defined as critical elements of the culture. The creativity and different styles spread like wildfire and we were all affected never to look back. Each region of the US had their own interpretation of what Hip Hop meant and Hollywood tried their best to keep up. Listen in to hear the discussion and their opinion of how these films impacted the culture from their perspective.

Episode 15 - '83: The year Hollywood Tried To Go Hip-Hop

Powerful new episode of The Light that you don't wanna miss! 

John L, Detrone, and Scott discuss some real issues revolving around the portrayal of "that life" and debate those artists that claim to be about it. They also discuss how the entertainment industry is not shy about profiting from the painful realities of some people who are stuck in situations as a result of bad decisions and/or circumstance.

This conversation leads right into an introspective album review of the Geto Boys classic LP "Grip It! On That Other Level" which formally introduced the world to the incomparable Scarface (aka Brothermob)who kicked the door down and forced open the gateway to Hip Hop from the South.

Episode 16 - The Geto Boys: True Gangster Originals

New episode of The Light! 

Detrone, John L, and Scott pay homage to one of the most iconic groups of all time in Grandmaster Flash and The Furious Five and discuss what they meant to the Hip Hop game. Despite Flash's innovation on the turntables and the cohesiveness between Melle Mel, Kid Creole, Scorpio, Rahiem, and Cowboy - they were shrouded in controversy and internal discontent but that didn't stop them from coming together at Sugar Hill Records for the briefest of moments to help lay the groundwork for that classic sound still heavily sampled today.

Grandmaster Melle Mel was critical to he movement that pioneered the MC takeover as spotlight shifted away from the DJ for the first time and placed the mic right up front - on wax AND in the nightclub. His monumental verses on the classic record Beat Street helped solidify his place in history as an emcee way ahead of his time.

Episode 17 - Grandmaster Flash and The Furious Five

This week Detrone, John L, and Scott bring in the debut album of iconic emcee LL Cool J and discuss how Radio began an unprecedented career on the Hip Hop stage for one of the greatest to ever do it.

A platinum selling trailblazing artist for Def Jam and a true pioneer of the rap game who has remained active for almost 30 years - but some interesting questions begin to emerge as they debate why an artist with this type of longevity and lineage is almost always bypassed whenever elite emcees are discussed. 

The self-proclaimed G.O.A.T. - is he wrong? Who has had the type of career that Uncle L had?

Episode 18 - LL's Debut: Radio

Join Detrone, John L, and Scott as they sit down and get it in over one of the most successful Hip Hop groups of all time - Outkast. Andre 3000 and Big Boi came together in 1994 to create a classic LP that laid the groundwork for the Atlanta explosion that followed their lead. 

Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik cemented the duo's reputation as both sophisticated and cerebral emcee's that utilize clever wordplay and southern slang to illustrate the Eastpoint, GA backdrop.

Much respect to Organized Noise, Goodie Mob, and the rest of the Dungeon Family for collaborating on the production of this iconic debut album and solidifying Atlanta as a force to be reckoned with in Hip Hop for years to come.

TLP Mixtape #001 brings you none other than Outkast straight from Eastpoint, GA. 

Sit back, relax, and enjoy the funky ride...

#TLP Mixtape 001 - ATLiens

Q-Tip, Phife, Ali Shaheed, and Jarobi helped shape the soundtrack of the Golden Era as part of the Native Tongue collective...straight from Linden Blvd.

#TLP Mixtape 002 - ATCQ

Posdnuos, Dave, and DJ Maseo ushered in the D.A.I.S.Y. age with no apologies and refused to conform to what was moving at the time. Vital members of the Native Tongue collective, Plug 1 and Plug 2 appealed to the conscious with their cerebral delivery and unprecedented creativity.  

#TLP Mixtape 003 - De La Soul

This Queensbridge street poet is the quintessential emcee. Nas is the standard and helped solidify NYC as the mecca of Hip Hop. His catalogue is virtually unmatched and is commonly seen as one of the greatest artists of all time.

#TLP Mixtape 004 - Nas

November 9, 1993 - The day RZA changed Hip Hop forever. 

The nine brothas from NYC - RZA, GZA, Method Man, Inspectah Deck, Raekwon, Ol Dirty Bastard, U-God, Masta Killa, and Ghostface Killah had the illest names and the dopest crew in the game. 

We never saw anything like them before and as they each went off to have solo careers - they wore that iconic symbol as a badge of honor. When they unite and form like Voltron there is NO stopping the Wu

#TLP Mixtape 007 - Wu-Tang Clan

New episode of The Light!!

To bring in the new year the right way we dug in and reviewed BDP's debut album "Criminal Minded" track for track, discussing the introduction and impact of arguably the greatest emcee of all time - the judge, jury, and defense minister of hip hop - KRS One.

Making sure we ALL know the difference between a rapper and an emCEE, "The Teacher" cannot and will not be contained, transcending any concept of an era. KRS is undefinable and the supreme voice for Hip Hop culture as we know it.

With Scott La Rock and Ced Gee from Ultramagnetic MC's contributing to the production side of this monumental LP, Boogie Down Productions turned their entry to the game into a historic moment for music regardless of genre. 

Cerebral lyrics coupled with that traditional boom-bap was the perfect one-two combo that dropped competition and opposition to their knees with an effectiveness that even the almighty Juice Crew can attest to.

Is KRS One the most relevant emcee in the game?

Episode 21 - Criminal Minded

New Episode of The Light!!

This week the #TLP crew covers the debut album of one of the greatest hip hop duos of all time with Eric B. and Rakim’s Paid in Full. The influential producer who learned from the great Marley Marl preceded the likes of Pete Rock and DJ Premier, while the legendary God MC Rakim Allah kicked off an entire legacy of cerebral emcee’s such as Nas, Pharaoh Monche, Mos Def, 2Pac, Kool G Rap, Eminem, and Jay-Z just to name a few.

Paid in Full was the statement that Hip Hop needed to catapult the logical side-progression from party records into more street conscious and cerebral topics that are still being emulated and followed today. Eric B’s hard hitting and creative production style provided the perfect backdrop for Rakim to lay his smooth-as-silk
vocals flawlessly on top. 

There was no denying their impact on Hip Hop as Rakim’s style caused an uneasy ripple throughout not only the studio bigs but also amongst his peers because of his sophisticated vocab and layered subject matter surrounding knowledge-of-self derived from Five Percent Nation lessons. Despite his diminutive stature, Rakim was leaps and bounds above his competitors and there is no disputing his place alongside Eric B in Hip Hop history.

Join John L, Detrone, and Scott as they get it in and discuss the lyrics behind arguably the most esoteric and supremely lyrical artists of all-time

Episode 22 - Paid in Full

The Diggin' in the Crates crew - Lord Finesse, Diamond D, Big L, Showbiz, A.G., Fat Joe, O.C., and Buckwild - came together to form a collective who’s top priority was to create music that revolved around the true essence of Hip Hop using dope production and superior lyricism.

Honorary members Big Pun, Armageddon, Freddie Foxxx, and frequent contributor DJ Premier - just to name a few - added to a formidable roster of MC’s and producers that preferred their underground status to the growing commercialization of Hip-Hop during the 90’s.

#TLP Mixtape 009 - D.I.T.C.

New Episode of The Light!

Last month on March 22nd the Hip Hop community lost an icon and one of its own when Malik Taylor, also known as Phife Dog from A Tribe Called Quest, passed away due to complications from his long term battle with diabetes.

Phife, together with Q-tip, Ali Shaheed Mohammed, and Jarobi helped create the sound of the Golden Era and ushered in an unprecedented level of creativity to the game, garnering millions of fans/heads that could instantly relate to them and their message. Q-tip’s jazz-infused production style laid the perfect canvas for the duo as their music formed the soundtrack of the 90’s and beyond.   

Phife will live on forever as a member of Tribe, the perfect counter to Q-tip, and the clever lyricist that became his signature.

Rest in Beats Malik! 

Join the #TLP crew as they pay homage to Phife Dog over several of his signature tracks

Episode 24 - One Up For The Phifer

Makaveli’s The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory was among the last works released by mercurial hip hop artist Tupac Shakur. His death at only 25 on September 13, 1996 brought a violent end to one of the most prolific and beloved artists of our generation, garnering legions of fans some of whom weren’t even born when his music was released.

Despite the critics and detractors who focused on the disparity of his message, legal issues, and enigmatic image - Tupac was a force in the game and fiercely loyal to his family and crew at Death Row Records.  

He was a renaissance man. A brilliant poet, actor, and musician years ahead of his time - and paid the ultimate price for the brightness of his light. 

Join the #TLP crew - with up and coming hip hop artist Miranda Writes - as they get it in track for track and discuss what some feel was Tupac’s best and most poignant work.

Episode 25 - The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory

Join the #TLP crew as they discuss the brewing aftermath of the shooting deaths of Philando Castile and Alton Sterling by police and the devastating impact reverberating through black communities as a result. 

John L and Scott talk about race relations in the United States - both past and present - while trying to make sense of the tension that has manifested and how we could possibly begin to heal these wounds opened anew. 

Violence can never be the answer and real solutions need to be discussed. Coming together as people and engaging in real dialogue centered around mutual respect is the only way to begin healing - not war.

Dedicated to the memories of: 

Philando Castile

Alton Sterling

Laquan McDonald

Tamir Rice

Eric Garner

Trayvon Martin

Walter Scott

Freddie Gray

Sandra Bland

Michael Brown

And to those men and women who lost their lives or suffered unjustly as the result of Police brutality. 

We at #TLP recognize, encourage support of, and will always respect the bravery and service of those law enforcement officials and public servants that protect and serve with integrity, and without prejudice.

PEACE ALWAYS

New episode of The Light!

Join John L and Scott from #TLP as they invite Moldy J and Leak 1 from Miami, FL-based crew #AML A Moldy Leak to help discuss the career and importance of trailblazing Hip Hop collective - Cypress Hill.

B-Real, Sen Dog, Mellow Man Ace, and DJ Muggs came together to form one of the most influential groups in the game with the release of their highly acclaimed debut album - “Cypress Hill” - in 1991.

B-Real’s nasal delivery combined with Sen’s punchlines and energy told the story of life on the streets of Southern LA and and how they preferred mind elevation over deadly violence to ease the pain of their day-to-day reality.

Cypress Hill are considered among the pioneers of West Coast Hip Hop and icons of the genre having easily solidified their place in history as the first Latino group to consistently achieve multi-platinum record sales worldwide.

Episode 28 - Cypress Hill

New episode of The Light! 

This week we shake the format of the show up a little bit and start doing series-based episodes based on iconic Hip-Hop albums and the artists that created them. 

There is no better group to kick things off with than A Tribe Called Quest. Q-Tip, Phife, Jarobi, and Ali formed their own lane in the early 90's and created legions of fans of all ages for almost 30 years strong. Their jazz-fusion and sample-based production is as much a part of the Golden Age soundtrack as any other. 

For a debut album,  People's Instinctive Travels and the Path's of Rhythm was far ahead of its time - that along with De La Soul's  seminal debut Three Feet High and Rising - kicked off an unprecedented era of creativity that defined the 1990's as the most dominant decade in Hip-Hop.

Join John L and Scott as they also get it in over new music released over the past few months from up and coming labels Mello Music Group and Mass Appeal Records. Their collective roster of artists are making purists everywhere hopeful and believers that Hip Hop most definitely is NOT dead.
