Description

Hey, Crate 808 fans! If you are listening to this show you're probably a 90's rap nerd like the rest of us, and if so, you gotta check out the newest show from Open Mike Eagle's podcast network Stony Island Audio. It's called "Stories About Songs with Kevin Beacham" The host Kevin Beacham is a documentarian, journalist, radio host, and all-around rap superfan. Some of you may know him as the co-founder and host of Scribble Jam, or as a longtime label rep for Rhymesayers.   In each episode, Kevin shares some of his greatest stories from his years as an industry insider focusing on one artist or movement in Hip Hop that made a lasting impression on Kevin and his work. These are the stories of not only how he fell in love with Hip Hop, but how that love has continued to keep him connected.   Stories About Songs is not just a podcast, but an immersive listening experience, a tapestry of rare beats, breaks, and samples intricately woven around Kevin's storytelling by fellow rap nerd and podcast producer Rob Van Vranken whose work you may have heard on a few other influential Hip Hop podcasts like The Cipher, Secret Skin, Headspin, or even this very podcast Crate 808!   You can find Stories about Songs on Spotify and Apple Podcasts now! Get caught up on Season 1 and make sure to subscribe to hear new episodes as they drop every Friday starting July 7th.   Listen on Spotify HERE   Listen on Apple Podcasts HERE   Follow Kevin on Twitter and IG
