  • Conversation with Nasty Nes Rodriguez - Rest in Peace

    Conversation with Nasty Nes Rodriguez - Rest in Peace
    Feb 21 2025
    Recently, the Hip-Hop industry lost a legend. Nasty Nes was essential in claiming Seattle's place in the rap matrix through the massive success of Sir Mix A Lot, NastyMix Records was a dynamic imprint that illuminated an obscure geographic region in terms of rap music. We recorded this broadcast in 2024 and did not publish it because we had a really bad technical day. And so now today as we mourn the passing of Nasty Nes Rodriguez, we dug into our archives, retrieved the interview, carefully edited best we could and published this conversation in honor of his life and legacy. Great memories, great perspectives. Even Nes' dog has a prominent part in this recording lol!!

    But yes, Nasty Nes Rodriguez was a great man and a good friend we met in our days of being in the radio, music and marketing industries. Listen, Like, share.

  • City of Long Beach votes to raise Pan African Flag during Black History Month

    City of Long Beach votes to raise Pan African Flag during Black History Month
    Feb 13 2025
    Following a motion forwarded by Long Beach City Councilmember Tunua Thrash-Ntuk, and seconded by Councilmember Dr. Jodi Ricks-Oddie, the Long Beach City Council unanimously approved the raising of the Pan African Flag. The motion requested that annually, the flag will fly alongside the Stars and Stripes, The State of California Flag and the City of Long Beach flag on the plaza of the Long Beach Civic Center as an acknowledgement of Black History Month.

    For this episode, Greg J. contemplates the move and the significance of the flag in this space - a energetic topic in a city that is so diverse and touts its position as a progressive and diverse municipality. We contemplate the essence of the Red, the black and the green flying over City Hall.

    I know one thing... Sistas standing on culture in City Hall and that's what's up.
