After recording 200+ episodes of the Dad Bod Rap Pod we can say with confidence that women are the best interviewees. Our conversation with CMG of Conscious Daughters is definitive proof. CMG was witty, engaging, and gave us great insights into the Bay Area rap scene of the mid-nineties which birthed Conscious Daughters. After a chance meeting with Paris which led to a record deal with his Guerrilla Funk imprint, Conscious Daughters created an all-time Bay Area classic joint (Something To Ride To) and garnered respect from the biggest names in rap music. CMG talks about the genius of her late rhyme partner Special One, how they honed their craft, and earned respect in a male dominated rap world. She also shares her thoughts on the notable female rappers of today.
Host Demone Carter, David Ma, and Nate LeBlanc also talk about the new Black Thought and Dangermouse collab album Cheat Codes. Is this the definitive Black Though solo project? Are the vocals mixed too low? The guys break it all down in this episode.
The Dad Bod Rap Pod is another dope podcast on the Stony Island Audio Network. Shout out to our benevolent benefactor Open Mike Eagle.
