Bourdain in the Bronx, Beatbox Championships, NY rap show (p)reviews & more

As usual, there are a ton of hip hop happenings in and around the Mecca of hip hop music and culture. The South Bronx, the birthplace, was just featured on an episode of Anthony Bourdain's CNN series, Parts Unknown, and many of the borough's hip hop representatives were featured prominently and positively. It's always good when that happens. We'll discuss the episode and how hip hop is shown to the masses.

Also, a quick preview of an upcoming celebration of an oft-underappreciated elemental aspect of hip hop and rap music, the beatbox, as we preview the upcoming American Beatbox Championships, going down this coming weekend as part of a 3-day event.

Of course, we'll review and preview several other shows, and talk about new music from the likes of A$AP Rocky and others, while taking YOUR CALLS on anything NY hip hop related.

Tune in, call in. It's New York Hip Hop's #1 talk radio show!
