Jim Jones & Juelz Santana on Dipset's Influence, Takeoff, Kanye, Drill Music & More Hotney 2 Streams • 4 years ago

Happy birthday Adam22! Happy Thanksgiving! For the occasion, we have one of the best and most delightful conversations ever with #JimJones and #JuelzSantana, who graced us with their presence to talk about fashion, longevity in the game, advice to kids on drill music, giving their candid take on current topics, their legendary status in the culture, and much more!

------
00:00 Intro
0:14 Breaking down the iconic Dipset Supreme shirt + How Jim Jones ushered Supreme into hip hop
3:45 Juelz used to hate the bootleg mixtape game back then but obviously, in retrospect, it made them super famous
5:05 Being from Harlem you always think you're the flyest, tryna outdo each other
5:52 Feeling amazing after almost 25 years in the game, now being on No Jumper, it feels great 6:28 About their lyrics, they never encouraged anybody to do anything, it was their lifestyle
7:50 Did Adam think about selling anything by listening to Dipset?
10:31 "Jim is a certified True legeeeeeeeeend!!" + How Jim got introduced to True Religion
13:35 Adam on Dipset photos old fits still looking fire compared to Joe Budden's
14:40 Jim was rockin Chrome Hearts super early on 2001
21:13 Juelz wanna do a pool celebrity tournament podcast, Lush says "Pooel Santana"
21:58 Jim Jones getting into it at the local gym viral video
23:21 Jim says we don't even know how deep their lingo goes, super technical
24:58 Adam says bring the Mobb Deep "dun" back, Jim says they were going crazy with the "dun"
26:26 "One thouwow is wild, I'm taking that!" - Jim
27:15 "No H***" started in high school, Jim had a whole "Pause Court and No H*** Court" back in the day
28:41 Jim is one of the adlibs goats
30:41 Juelz says they need more credit and recognition on how they influenced the use of samples 31:40 The "Nas is irrelevant" conversation sparked by 21 Savage
36:04 Juelz says it's the same thing for the "best rapper conversation" it's very much generational
38:20 "Just because you don't understand something, doesn't mean this rapper ain't saying anything"
39:16 Jim says drill is definitely not dumbed down hip hop and suggests listening way closer coz they're really be rappin
44:06 Dissin in drill is distasteful, media need to stop adding fuel to the fire
50:35 Juelz says label don't have a real bond with these young artists, Juelz wants to be a mentor

1:10:23 About Kanye, it's always sad to see a brother going through it + Yeezy would not be the same without Ye, Adidas tryna keep selling them is lame, if they're done with Ye they should be done with him altogether
1:14:46 "The freedom of speech is very pricey" - Jim Jones
1:20:11 Mase's deal with Fivio, Jim explains why you can't just call bull if you don't know the whole story, when you come from nothing you can't be judged for signing any deal. No one ever really knows the ins and outs of any deals
1:24:33 Same for some producers complaining they got the shorthand of the stick in some situations, when most of them were ready to sell a beat for $500
1:25:46 Artist development is not even a thing anymore
1:26:24 Jim advice rappers to make sure they read their contracts, sign if it's a good fit for them at that moment, and if you do sign, stand on it, don't act like a B**TCHHHHH on social media after the fact
1:28:50 Juelz read a lot while he was in jail, about marketing and branding

Usher: Tiny Desk Concert Hotney 2 Streams • 4 years ago

This year, NPR Music is celebrating Black Music Month with an array of brand new Tiny Desk concerts — both from home and from behind our beloved Desk. Together, these artists represent the past, present and future of Black music. This month of carefully curated shows is a celebration of Black artists expressing themselves in ways we've never seen before, and of the Tiny Desk's unique way of showcasing that talent.

Bobby Carter | June 30, 2022
"We celebrate Black Music Month. This has been Black magic." Truer words may have never been spoken behind the Tiny Desk as R&B goliath Usher caps off our month-long celebration of Black music, highlighting a catalog chock-full of hits spanning 25 years. It's been over two years since NPR headquarters was abuzz with chatter of a legend in the building. After an early morning rehearsal for his set at the Something in the Water Festival in Washington, D.C., he made his way over to deliver an unforgettable performance.

Usher and his band, all dipped in black, set it off with an introduction over a funky horn-laced instrumental reminiscent of a Blaxploitation flick. They keep that groove going right into a reworked version of his 1997 breakout single, "You Make Me Wanna..." Twenty-five years later, Usher sits arguably as the king of R&B. Between 2000 and 2010, there was no debate whatsoever, with his string of records that included the biggest R&B album of the 21st century, Confessions.

What he's done in the vocal booth is only half of his claim to fame. The stage is where he's continued to shine as he prepares for the second leg of his Las Vegas residency. This loose and playful set touches on his many career phases; the crooning, the deeply personal, the club bangers and even the Tik Tok challenges indicate that he could just be reaching his prime. Recently, we've heard plenty of hot takes, wild battles and social media fodder about who sits at the mountaintop in the world of R&B. Usher Raymond has entered the chat.

SET LIST
"You Make Me Wanna..."
"Superstar"
"U Don't Have to Call"
"Nice & Slow"
"Confessions Part II"

Omar Apollo: Tiny Desk Concert Hotney 2 Streams • 4 years ago

From Sept. 15 through Oct. 15, Tiny Desk is celebrating Latinx Heritage Month with an "El Tiny" takeover, featuring Jessie Reyez, Susana Baca and more musicians from all corners of Latinidad.

Fi O’Reilly | September 15, 2022
What a way to get our second annual El Tiny series going! Omar Apollo kicks off Latinx Heritage Month with a full-band rendition of "En El Olvido," backed by Las Mariachis Lindas, as he channels a childhood spent listening to Juan Gabriel into his performance of the Mexican corrido.

In the eternal wisdom of Alt.Latino co-host Anamaria Sayre, it's not a Mexican party until someone starts crying, and Apollo embraces esta melancolía as the band slips into the easy R&B number "Evergreen." "We're about to get more sad," he says to the crowd with a grin.

Despite the heartbreak and unrequited love songs, there's a sense of ease in this Tiny Desk concert — an easy camaraderie among the group as the members sing through "Evergreen" and "Petrified" before finishing with the (slightly) more upbeat "Endlessly." El corazón puede estar adolorido, but in community, the pain never seems hopeless.

As Apollo's Tiny Desk comes to an end, he offers the audience a homework assignment for self-improvement, for putting the negative behind you and making yourself available to participate in building community: "I want y'all to think about something,” he says. “I want you to go home, I want you to meditate and I want you to just burn the bridge." He laughs. “I’m playing!” But as his and the band’s joyful energy attests, in the world of Omar Apollo, there’s only room for building each other up.
