Generation Now.
As part of the DJ collective The Aphilliates, DJ Drama and Don Cannon have been instrumental in breaking new talent. Enter the duo’s latest prospect, North Philly fire-starter Lil Uzi Vert, whose mixtape Luv Is Rage is igniting a new generation of hip-hop fans. While in New York, the triumvirate discuss their partnership, Drama and Cannon’s infamous mixtape raid, Drake reference track controversy, and tons more.

Great episode! Helps explain how certain sounds gained ground and others didn’t. I’m still here for some curation. I hope Uzi gets to maxing out some Roth IRAs while he’s still “relevant.”
I agree. i think that’s a big problem cause theres a trillion rappers uploading music to a soundcloud account. it’s impossible for everyone to get on that way.
I’m waiting for a Bevel Razor sponsored weekly podcast mixtape from some young connected street dj with exclusives, freestyles and breaking artists. Somebody to do for New York/Hip Hop what OVO sound, Soulection or Radarradio does for their scenes.
Is that real? Bevel Sponsored podcast I mean…

That would be dope but it would have to be spearheaded by someone that’s like insanely talented and damn near genius. Finding someone like that in NY’s current crop of rappers, good luck.
It’s more than possible DJs are just lazy. For almost 20 years in NYC DJs competed to release the most exclusive mixtapes. Look up DJ Clue Summatyme Shootout 1995 on soundcloud. Then listen to Ron G, Kool Red Alert, Mister Cee, Whoo Kid, and on and on. New Yorks got plenty of young djs and young spitters. They did it then without the internet. That is the real takeaway of this episode– the demise of the street mixtape and the result
possible DJs are just lazy.

He said people are biting his style but when I just got done listening to one of his songs I thought I heard Chief Keef
truuuu — Chief Future Scott
I think he still talented but that song “Top” sound like Keef tho for real. I don’t know who’s bitin who anymore these days.
first song i listened too sound just like Keef — yo from Philly tho — everybody sound like they from the same place.
When I looked at the draft of 7258 dollars, I accept that my friend’s brother was like really creating cash in his free time with his PC. . His aunt’s neighbor has done this for only 11 months and by now repaid the loan on their home and bought a new Car . Look here for details.

The Entire Episode I Kept Wondering Would Anyone Have The Balls To Tell Lil’ Uzi To Shut Up and Listen, NO ONE and I Mean NO ONE DOWNLOADED THIS PODCAST EPISODE BECAUSE YOUR NAME WAS ON IT, WE WANTED TO HEAR THE STORIES and HISTORY THAT YOU SEEMED DETERMINE TO INTERRUPT and THAT YOU DIDN’T HAVE THE GOOD ENOUGH SENSE TO ASK THE PEOPLE WHO YOU WORK WITH PRIOR TO THIS INTERVIEW. WOULD HAVE BEEN A 100X BETTER EPISODE MINUS HIM (THOUGH HE WAS COOL LIKE THE FIRST 10-15 MINS.)
Drama still a hoe for whatever role he played in the meek vs drake situation
I like some of Uzi’s songs but that hair color is not helping.
Hoe ass DJ Drama gave them reference tracks to destroy Drake only back fired on his hoe ass. Never listening to a Gangsta grill tape ever again
Aw you mad?
just when i think rap names cant possibly get any worse someone comes along and calls them self Lil Uzi Vert
I actually liked an old song Uzi did that Cannon produced and was looking forward to more of that sound. His new mixtape is mostly trash and after listening to this podcast, I’ve lost all faith in Uzi. He comes across as a wannabe young thug who got plucked from obscurity. I don’t think this kinda of top down approach is gonna work well long term for rappers. The shit always gotta be organic.
WELP.
can y’all get dip set????
