Summary
On Episode 183 of Take It Personal Radio, we're delivering you another special sample driven episode. Like we did a few episodes back with Method Man, we're now giving Nas the same treatment. All these songs feature a Nas sample. Many of which you'll recognize and some maybe new discoveries. We've got music from Real Live, Royal Flush, Black Attack, Bahamadia, Scientific, Masta Ace, Big L, Mac Miller, Ras Kass, Lexicon, Mic Geronimo, Blacastan, Darc Mind, Reks, Jigmastas, Common and of course, Jay-Z. At the break, we discuss our recent TIP outing at the Rakim concert. We answer some of your questions and discuss the impact Illmatic had on changing standards for a hip-hop classic. Keep it locked because this show is all about replayability! You’re listening to Take It Personal Radio — where hip-hop lives, legends are honored, and the music always speaks louder than words. 📸 Instagram: @takeitpersonalradio 🛒Store: takeitpersonalradio-shop.fourthwall.com 💖 Patreon: patreon.com/TakeItPersonal 🎧 Listen on: Apple Podcasts / iTunes Amazon Music Spotify Pandora iHeartRadio Player FM Podchaser Vevo YouTube Channel
