The princess of the Internets a.k.a. Orlando radio DJ Jessie Maguire gave us the audio of her enlightening interview with Alchemist from her born day show. Her recap will serve as your guide.
Alchemist calls in to The Backstage Pass on WPRK 91.5fm in Orlando to wish Jessie a happy birthday. He talks about:
– The status of the new album
– How he wants to stay behind the boards and just produce because he does not take his rapping too seriously
– What up and coming artists he likes right now (Jay Electronica, Fashawn, Nipsey Hussle, and more…)
– How Prodigy is doing and how he visits him frequently “He is working out… he is healthy… his mind is right… FREE P!…He just wants to work!”
– Who is producing on Em’s album and how after listening to Eminem’s Relapse album he felt like he wanted to throw his own album away because of how incredible it was (he says its his best work to date),
– Who he wants to work with (Alicia Keys, holla at Alchemist!)

It is so heartbreaking to hear DJ Premier break the news that DJ Kool Herc’s health is ailing, as he is literally the founding father who laid down the blueprint for hip-hop culture. Thinking about how someone who built an entire global phenomenon can end up struggling with medical expenses or failing health really puts things into perspective regarding healthcare challenges. When you look at how people navigate health or wellness procedures worldwide—whether someone is researching cosmetic treatments like Liposuction Cyprus or seeking urgent medical care—it underscores how essential access to reliable medical help and proper support systems really is. Kool Herc gave us the breaks, the block parties, and the entire movement that shaped generations of music lovers, so seeing the community step up to show love while DJ Premier brings awareness to his condition is the very least we can do. Sending strength and prayers to Kool Herc for a full recovery, and massive respect to DJ Premier for using his platform to make sure a true pioneer gets the support and respect he deserves.
