Health Verzuz Wealth
In this episode we discuss a topic often overlooked; why so many Hip Hop artists have died before their time, due to health issues. Some of the pitfalls and choices rappers make and why. As well as why the messaging in the music is so important, but often not the most marketed. Like a true foodie, Curt compares a Hip Hop artist's work to a complicated dish. Matt fills us in on why not all IPAs are created equal. Jus reminds us it's been 25 years since Nas "It Was Written" debuted, and 30 years since his first appearance on wax, as we celebrate the Anniversary of "Breaking Atoms" from The Main Source with an Anniversary beer from Tree House Brewing to commemorate the 1991 classic. We leave you with our thoughts on the recent Verzuz, the future of Verzuz battles and why we think it's time for the plarform to change. Get some!!
