Based Podcast: X

Happy Summer Olympics everyone! Seriously, I'm in deep with the Olympics coverage this year and enjoy the fact, that I can get some live coverage starting at 2 am (Shout out to the IOC and BCE media consortium for pandering to the insomniacs demographic). Aside from that, I was able to be pulled away from the wall to wall Olympics coverage to sit down with one and only Scotty Stark to talk about......well hip-hop in general.

 Though I'd like to make a shoutout to an up and coming artist out of Toronto that goes by the name of "ThaCapitalE", who just dropped a mixtape with the feature single called, "Daddy Cool". Check it out.

Based Podcast 9: The Resurrection

After the discovery of the lost tapes, Scotty Stark and I got back in the kitchen and cooked up another classic. Is it OK, that I start to call these podcasts "classic"? Probably not, anyways in this edition we try to get back into the groove of things after a 2 month break of not talking all these hip-hop. Topics include:

- Our thoughts on Frank Ocean's "Channel Orange"
- First impressions of 3 Kings off of Rick Ross' new album, "God Forgives, I Don't"
- Wakka Flocka Flame and Big K.R.I.T's first big label releases.
- My experience of watching the Roots in Saskatoon.
- A list of promises for the next podcast.

As usual, Right-Click and Save As. Enjoy

Based Podcast: The Lost Tapes

It's been a mighty long time since I've updated the good ol' blog. 2012 had been a good year for posting up til May it seemed. Unfortunately I had to leave town for a bit, but now I'm back. Before I left, Scotty Stark and I had recorded a couple of podcasts that I never got the chance to upload.

I present to you the Based Podcast: The Lost Tapes edition. While I can't recall exactly what we talked about during the podcasts, I have no doubt in my mind that they were quality podcasts nonetheless.

"Based" Podcast: The Resurrection


In the midst of the Tupac resurrection at Coachella a few weeks ago, you knew that Scotty and I had to talk about it among other things such as cell phone apps, books, and other minutiae things dealing with or around hip-hop.
