    MC Lyte
    Jerzyxplorer Was a great interview. Too bad she didn't get seep in the tour traveling with fellow hip hop artist. She definitely had some stories. Also it was cool to see her answer questions about collabs and the Antoinette beef . And the ghost writing blunders

    Super Tight!
    This is an amazing pod. Not only does it dive in to some of my favorite work by some of my favorite artists, it also gave me a look into some of the Blog Era classics I’ve been intending to circle back around to. Superb work.

    Expand the Rap Stories universe, expeditiously
    I wanna see R&B, gospel & solid gold soul stories. This only left me wanting more product. I’m hooked.

    This one is a starter!
    Okay…which podcast do I bump out the rotation because this one is now a starter. I thought I knew everything about these artists but really enjoyed learning so much more! I certainly look forward to the next season.
  • Huey's dad
    One of the best podcasts of the year
    If you love backstories, hip-hop and hip-hop backstories, this is for you. It’s not only carefully done. It’s entertaining, emotional and deeply, deeply informative. There are must-listens. Then there’s Rap Stories.
