Over the last few months, I've realized that I developed an unhealthy relationship with my phone — too many distractions. On this episode, I talk about how/why I’m taking regular breaks from the internet, and the four tools that have helped me touch grass more often. Shout out to the homie @aldali_410 for providing the new sounds. Definitely check …

On this episode, I discuss the seven life lessons I learned while on my first solo trip ever. Not only was it my first time out of the United States, it was also my first time on an airplane. I know, super late in the game, but I highly recommend a solo trip.By Vagrant By Sunset

First & foremost, big shout out to Dontaé (@donth8dontae) for allowing me to use his music. I open up this week’s episode of UG by briefly covering an incident between the Valley Stream, NY native & then-Apple Music executive Carl Chery, which underscores the importance of branding. This discussion segues into the topic of influencers in today’s wo…

It’s been a minute! After a several month hiatus, UG is back with episode eight. I’ve been taking in feedback and listening back to all of the episodes, and I realized that I left off an important group from that list of notable hip-hop cliques with no album (eps 2-4 if you need to tap in). So, I think it’s fitting that I take some time to tell you…

“I can’t believe you did that, that shit is mad funny.” Sorry for the delay! In this episode, I explain why this release was late (immediately breaking a resolution I set for the new year — shout out to you if you’ve kept up with your own goals). Alcohol and poor judgment contributed to this episode, but probably not in the way that you might think…

The final installment of the series that discusses impactful hip-hop groups that have never released a project. 10 groups from the last 10 years. Listening to Parts I and II recommended, but definitely not required. Episode is slightly longer than usual, but thanks in advance for listening! Shout out to everyone who helped me come up with the infor…

Part two of a three-part series where I explore several impactful groups in hip hop that have never released an album. Picks up right where I left off from the first part. Let me know your thoughts on the topic, and tell who I'm missing (chances are they will be covered in Part III). This marks the end of groups founded between 1989-2009; Part III …

First of a three part series where I explore impactful hip-hop groups that have never released a commercial project. If you can think of a group, chances are they will be covered in one of the three episodes. Full show notes will be posted in the next part of the series.
