Proper Tings Vol 5: The Vybz Cyan Done
Vol. 5 is here and the Vybz cyan't done...Literally we are all still on a Vybz Kartel high from his legendary two night sold out concert in Brooklyn. The team gives their first hand account on the show. They discuss his set list, guest list and undeniable cultural impact. Unlike respected American hip-hop artists, his ascension took place after his release from jail. Appearances from Neyo, Fabolous, Shensea, Lil Kim to name a few, really added a special New York feel to the show. The absence of Foxy Brown was noticed and brought up an important question; which Brooklyn female rapper has the biggest boro anthem, Lil Kim or Foxy Brown? Plus, this episode's Bun Off was strictly Vybz riddims had everybody in their nostalgia bag.

Volume 4: KING OF CANBOULAY
Proper Tings Volume 4 is here, and this time we welcome our first guest, the King of Canboulay himself, Neil-Christian, a Brooklyn native with deep Trinidadian roots. Neil-Christian shares his experience not only as a costume designer, having designed for several carnivals around the world, but also as a "Carnivalist." In this podcast, we discuss all things Carnival, dive deep into the history of Trinidad Carnival and what it’s become today. We explore which countries don’t need a Carnival (we love ruffling Jamaica’s feathers), sweet Soca music, and of course, talk about the joy and freedom that comes with playing a f*cking mas!
