After last week’s debacle, you didn’t think I’d forget to record SNSS on back to back episodes, did you?  Back once again, it’s the incredible.  This time, we were joined in studio by one of our favorite local artists, Thaddeus David, who you should be familiar with from his work with State of the Artist (SOTA) and [...]

While we technically kicked off 2012 with last week’s “Best of 2011” wrap up, this really felt like our first SNSS of the new year.  I don’t really have too much to say, other than the music is dope as always, our homies Kooley High called in to the show, and the Drake/Common “beef” has me [...]

Another year is in the books and here on Sound Session, you already know what that means: it’s time for our annual wrap up show.  As we’ve said in years past (2009 & 2010), this playlist isn’t a definitive, comprehensive list by any means, nor is it compiled in any sort of numerical ranking marking which songs [...]

Another insanely hectic week in the books, but Sound Session is back like we never left…cause we haven’t.  Episode #341 marks our final show of 2011 since next Sunday is Christmas (oh yeah…I should probably get on that whole “shopping” thing…), so after this, we’ll see y’all in 2012 with our best of ’11 wrap up [...]

It’s a busy week in Seattle with Monday Night Football coming to town for my day job at ESPN, Dom Kennedy performing on Capitol Hill, and the Watch The Throne tour with Kanye & Jay-Z going down as well.  To that end, just the biz this week.  Shout to King Britt (!!!), Tendai Maraire, Dyme Def, and [...]

As I mentioned last week, Wale came through SNSS for a quick chat about his Ambition album, his fans, sports, and more.  Be sure to check out the video of our interview right here. Now that that bit of shameless self-promotion is out the way, on to the 2nd bit of shameless self-promotion!  On this week’s episode, peep [...]

On this week’s episode of SNSS, DV-One and I were joined in studio by our good friends, Jake One, Grynch, and Wizdom, plus we played part of my interview with Wale from Saturday.  I’ll be posting up the full video soon, but if you must have visual evidence that it went down, peep our historic moment for [...]

Check out this week’s SNSS for new music from Freddie Gibbs, Young Jeezy, Andre 3000, Childish Gambino, Rittz, Wale, Tanya Morgan, Common, Danny Brown, Drake, Amy Winehouse, and more.  Plus, longtime friend of the show, J. Pinder, stopped by, and Stones Throw’s MED came up from Los Angeles to kick it with us and discuss his [...]

On this week’s SNSS, we were joined by the one and only dream hampton!  Dream is one of the finest literary voices in hip-hop, a co-author with Jay-Z, the longtime friend of the legendary Notorious B.I.G., and just an all around amazing woman.  While in town for a public discussion with Kimya Dawson, dream stopped by our [...]

November, eh?  Really?  Really?????  Wow. Peep this week’s show for new music from Pusha T, Mac Miller, Lupe Fiasco, Gilbere Forte, Exile, Jesse Boykins III, Phonte, The Kid Daytona, Saukrates, and more.  There’s a chance these links might die, so grab ‘em while you can!  Who am I kidding, I’ll re-up upon request.  Holler at [...]
