Show notes

On Episode 179 of Take It Personal Radio, we're hitting you with some random rap — or as Kevlar calls it, good nuggets.

This episode features music we've never played before in the show’s 10-year existence. You’ll hear joints from Young Zee, O.C., Ten Thieves, Dr. Oop, Brainsick Mob, Main One, Marley Marl, Big Tabb, Grand Agent, Prince Po, Terra Tounge, Lord Finesse, Junclassic, Da Youngstas, Pep Love, Jay Biz, and Saukrates.

At the break, we answer all your submitted questions and break down what makes up a perfect banger. Is it the beat? Is it the rhymes? Or is it the hook?

Shouts to our latest sponsor, Late Night Record Pool. Enter promo code TIP10 to get your first month for just $10. DJs, head over to latenightrecordpool.com, where you’ll spend hours downloading music like the good ol’ days of Napster and Limewire — but legal.

We’re also giving away some vinyl from the good folks at Get On Down on the next episode. To enter, respond in the comment section with your favorite banger from this episode, and you’ll be entered to win.

Stay tuned — because if you want to know what separates us from the rest, it’s the episode you’re about to hear.

You’re listening to Take It Personal Radio —
where hip-hop lives, legends are honored,
and the music always speaks louder than words.
