Let your friends El Keter and Emeyesi love you down with a very special Valentine’s Day episode of the Clandestine Transmission!
This week we fire up the WABAC machine and reminisce on loves lost and won via classic early-nineties Hip-Hop songs dealing with the subjects of love, relationships, and makin’ babies.
We also touch on several off-the-wall topics, including our love of vinyl records, non-album cuts, and remixes, the past and seeming lack of a future for “Hip-Hop cinema”, the racial origins of the girl Rakim rapped about on “Mahogany”, basic Craigslist safety (or how to rob somebody via Craigslist), and why so many of the songs on this week’s playlist are by 5%ers.
