Episode 183 First Interview with guest Last Emperor

What is the rap album of the summer? We share our picks as well as some listener feedback sourced from Twitter. That conversation inevitably leads to a deeper examination of the seasonality of music and how we decide when to listen to certain albums. Then we have a great talk with MC The Last Emperor. Perhaps best known for his underground classic cut "Secret Wars" where he imagines a battle between hip-hop stalwarts (who he impersonates, some of the impressions are spot on) and Marvel comic heroes many years before the MCU was the dominant force in entertainment. The Emperor had a winding path through the music business, and breaks down his unique career and approach in detail here. DBRP is a proud part of the Stony Island Audio podcast network.
