Rakim on the Conspiracy Worldwide Radio Friday Night Live Podcast
Listen back to the Nov. 6 edition of THE FRIDAY NIGHT LIVE SHOW iTunes PODCAST featuring live guests, Rakim, RA The Rugged Man, Scorzayzee, Harry Shearer (The Simpsons and Spinal Tap), Mykil Miers and more!
"Rakim joins us for one of his most deep and lengthy interviews of his entire career. This may just be the most intrusive and probing interview that you will ever hear with the man who changed what it meant to be an emcee and helped create the art of rhyming from scratch. As well as talking about the importance of the new Rakim album, world premiered here on the show a few weeks ago, he also takes time to talk Aftermath, The Detox, Eric B, Jay-Z as well as offering an open plea to Nas to contact him in order to discuss the recent 'Rakim dedication' record that Nas penned. This is almost 60 minutes with the true pioneer of rhyme. Only a "rap" music fan would miss this."
