Wegoinin Presents...

From burning up the mixtapes to working with a host of legendary producers to ghostwriting radio hits, Ali Vegas has more than paid his dues in the game. That's why he's able to fit himself for the new crown that the PONY outgrew. With his latest offering, The New King Part 2, Ali reminds us of his place in the game between his witty, introspective lyrics. In this exclusive interview, Ali tells us why he's no longer the PONY, the mixtape scene, loyalty, the Trackmasters days, industry politics, Lamar Odom, and much more. http://twitter.com/therealalivegas http://twitter.com/seven3zero

"We've always been anti-industry," Danse says when talking about his song "Fuck Fader," an incendiary blast at the pay-for-play tactics some media outlets employ. The song and subsequent campaign, ironically, has led to more media coverage and placements, but the attitude of Danse and his BKLYN Stickup partner Busy remain the same - forget the industry. This independent mindstate has led to BET and MTV placements, a strong following, and the respect of fellow artists and writers. In this exclusive interview, Danse talks about his come-up, which goes back to the HipHopGame days, as well as his experiences with the hip-hop media, plans for BKLYN Stickup, his collaborations, and much more. http://twitter.com/bklynstickup http://twitter.com/seven3zero

In this episode of Check It, Queens native junclassic, who embodies the independent hip-hop grind, as he’s released at least an album a year for the last eleven years, stops by to give us his musical recommendations. Oh, and he also produced the sample-free beats that bang in the background. http://junclassic.bandcamp.com http://twitter.com/junclassic http://twitter.com/seven3zero

Nite Boogie, also known to Jersey heads as Funka Nite, is a dope artist hailing from the Brick City. Possessed with an energetic flow and sharp wordplay, Nite can bless any beat but sounds best over those grimy boom-bap beats. A talented producer in his own right, Nite has quickly dropped two quality solo projects, Hunt Kill Eat and The Heimlich Maneuver, both available on his Bandcamp. In this exclusive interview, Nite breaks down his new project, his creative process, reminisces on the early days, when the interviewer interned for the crew, and more in this exclusive interview. http://niteboogie.bandcamp.com http://twitter.com/niteboogie http://twitter.com/seven3zero More interviews at: http://wegoinin.com/category/interviews/

Tonedeff is the hip-hop incarnation of WebTV. Go with it for a second - something that was way ahead of its time, brilliant, and underappreciated as hell. Before any MC was worried about connecting with fans on a more personal level, before Twitter’s parents even met, where was Tone? On the QN5 message boards, building the brand. Oh, before rappers were talking about their brand, what was Tone doing? Building his brand, slanging one baby blue QN5 shirt at a time. Oh, merch? Yeah, Tone did that too, whether it was for QN5 artists like PackFM or the supergroup Extended F@mm (which may be coming back - check the interview), yeah, Tone did that too. And don’t forget the huge QN5 Mega Shows, touring the country, or putting you on to dope acts like Kokayi. Tone did all of that too. And that’s not even mentioning his solo project Archetype, an underground classic. But Tone didn’t die off the way of WebTV. He just evolved. Got stronger. He’s like what the next generation of Chromecast would be. But he’s it now. Somet

Reef the Lost Cauze has always been an MC’s MC. With an amazing ear for beats as well as the lyrical capacity to demolish any concept or competitor, Reef has more than made his mark on the Philly hip-hop scene and beyond. Now ten albums deep in the game, not even counting the AOTP discog, EPs, or mixtapes, Reef’s got a lot to talk about, whether it’s politics, autism, his creative process, or his classic verse on the Snowgoons’ latest “Goon Bap.” Bonus for all the underground Philly heads - find out where Chief Kamachi’s been and if Juju Mob is reconvening. twitter.com/lostcauze twitter.com/seven3zero

From dealing with the death of a close friend to working the indie game, 2016 was a trying year for Walter Reed. But anyone who’s even remotely familiar with his music knows that nothing’s going to be able to stop Priest for long. Due to an eternally positive outlook and a strong sense of spirituality, Priest is armed for whatever comes his way. We reconnect in this interview to talk about his latest projects, his outlook on the next four years, politically, his writing process, legacy, aliens, and much more.

Face it. A lot of times when you’re looking for new music, whether it’s for a long ride or when you’re trying to impress someone with your eclectic musical taste, you can only scroll through albums on Spotify for so long before you settle on the same old playlist or the recommendations that they’re probably being paid to show you. That is why I am bringing you Check It, a podcast dedicated to bringing you musical recommendations from people you respect. Our first guest on Check It is none other than the Cunninlynguist’s Deacon the Villain. As a member of Cunninlyngusts, Deacon first burst onto the scene in 2001 with the cult classic Will Rap 4 Food.
