The Studcast Podcast

Akira Hardcastlewww.spreaker.com
Beats, Vibes and genuine conversation between friends. The hosts, Akira the DJ and Chevonne Neal are the perfect mix of creative energy and consiousness. Openly representing a point of view that we find scarce and underepresented. Yes we are LGBTQ, but we aim to involve our family and friends in conversations that bridge the gap between us and those who seek to understand us. The vibe is set to the soundtrack of #BeatsbyAK, as we wanted to preserve the classic hiphop mixshow vibe we grew up to.
