It’s been few years of me trying to get the legendary Chuck D on The Combat Jack Show. It took current events, plus the Freddie Foxxx episode to make this happen (thank you Bumpy!). How do I even describe this 3 hour long discussion with Chuck D and Keith Shocklee?
Def Jam, Hot 97, Dr. Dre, N.W.A., Ice Cube, Tupac Shakur, Marley Marl, Flavor Flav, Eric B and Rakim, COINTELPRO, Run-DMC, the Bomb Squad, the dearth of diversity on rap radio… so much knowledge.
What I’m walking away with is how we have the power to control how we’re perceived in this culture. And how we have to stop making excuses. Now. Ladies and gents, we present to you, the Episode Without A Pause.
Brilliant!
Black people working behind the scenes in the music industry and artists (here in the UK), need to listen to this. You all might learn something.

Thanks. Just got through all of this and Freddie Foxxx’s interviews. wow…….the timing of these interviews could not be better and is very relevant to the music in the UK. This is one of those interviews that needs to be broke into 15 min segments and flooded all over YouTube for everyone to access and let sink in.
BBC 1xtra staff need to hear this
