Trailer: Introducing...Stories About Songs with Kevin Beacham

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!
