MAD SKILLZ: The Go-To Voice For Hip-Hop | R.O.A.D. #306
Welcome to the R.O.A.D. Podcast. The show that gives you unfiltered opinions from the eyes and ears of 3 seasoned DJ’s from the Las Vegas nightclub industry.
On this week’s episode of the @RoadPodcast, the crew bring back Grammy nominated-songwriter, ghostwriter, rapper and DJ, Mad Skillz (@SkillzVA). Skillz speaks on @BustaRhymes’ encouragement during his @BETAwards ‘Hip-Hop 50th Anniversary Wrap Up’ (8:45), explains ‘Sync Approval’ in the music business (13:55) and warns young writers and record producers of predatory publishing deals (22:01). Skillz speaks on collaborating with #NewYorkCity (@NYCGov) for the “Hip Hop Till the Infinity” installation at the @HallDesLumieres (29:20) and breaks down his current projects including his EP ‘Bop God’ and his spoof group “Nodeci” (35:56). Finally, the fellas debate when R&B changed from ‘I Love You’ energy to its current ‘F*** You!’ toxicity (48:00).
