The Culture for Sale - Ep.122

<p>On Episode 122 of the Set the Bar Mixshow,DJ Oplex is putting the industry on notice by examining exactly what a "culture vulture" is, why it's a strictly behavior-based title, and how our own consumer habits are funding the exploitation. We're putting the mirror up to external extractors who treat Hip-Hop like a transactional cash cow, while laying down the ultimate truth of the genre. To keep the vibe uncompromised, the soundtrack is packed with heavy rotation, featuring major new heat like Freddie Gibbs breaking boundaries from his deluxe You Only Die 1nce, Isaiah Rashad cutting deep on his latest drop IT'S BEEN AWFUL, and smooth R&B textures from Haley Smalls' fresh Matches (Deluxe). Hit play and tap into the culture.</p> <ol> <li> <p data-path-to-node="2,0,0"><strong data-path-to-node="2,0,0" data-index-in-node="0">Lupe Fiasco, Nu Deco Ensemble, Jacomo Bairos & Sam Hyken</strong> – Hip Hop Saved My Life (Live from Miami Beach) (feat.

The Kendrick Effect - Ep.121

<p>In episode 121, DJ Oplex pulls back the curtain on the fundamental law of the genre: authenticity. He discusses how Hip-Hop acts as the ultimate land of the authentic where a single whiff of synthetic behavior is the easiest way to get your cultural clearance revoked. He dives deeper into the seemingly inevitable paradox Drake faces post Kendrick beef while spinning new Hip-Hop from Courtney Bell, Kendall Spencer, Trem Sol and more. Getcha popcorn ready and press play.</p> <p>Follow Oplex on <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/oplexmusic/">IG</a> and <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/oplexmusic">FB</a>.</p> <p><a href= "https://www.oplexmusic.com">www.oplexmusic.com</a> </p> <p><span style= "text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Playlist</strong></span></p> <ol> <li>Couple Hunnid - Trem Sol</li> <li>Immigrants - Freddie Gibbs</li> <li>Everyday - Courtney Bell</li> <li>The LAnd - RJMrLA</li> <li>Final Score - Ro Thoro</li> <li>How it Is - Lord Sko & Statik Selektah</li> <li>Head in a Jar - Khamari</li> <li>Confused - Cortex</li> <li>Guardian Angel - Lee Rene</li> <li>On Me - 6lack & Odeal</li> <li>Eye of the Needle - Smel and Kendall Spencer</li> </ol> <p> </p>
