Raw Beginnings: Sage Francis Talks Punk, Hip-Hop & Napster | The DOD45 Show - Episode 2 🎙️🐘🐱

Описание: 🎙️The DOD45 Show: Sage Francis on Punk, Indie Hip-Hop & the Streaming Revolution 🎧🐘🐱

📅 Originally aired May 6, 2021 — this early episode of The DOD45 Show takes us back to our unpolished beginnings. This was technically our second recording, but let’s be real — it was the first official dive into what the show would become (the pilot doesn’t count, okay? 😅). Brace yourself for raw vibes, no graphics, awkward pacing, questionable mic quality, and the absence of our now-iconic theme music. But what it lacks in production, it more than makes up for in heart, laughs, and insight.

In this milestone episode, Tai chats with the legendary hip-hop artist and founder of Strange Famous Records, Sage Francis. Oh, and Tai creates a live drawing of a cat balancing an elephant because, well, why not? 🎨🐾🐘
