BANG! @southernvangard #radio presents the DILLON & J57 interview session! This is undoubtedly a momentous occasion. This interview session marks the return of in-studio interview sessions at Southern Vangard Radio, as it’s the first interview session since COVID-19 brought the world to screeching halt in March 2020. We might just shed a tear. Not really, but we had a LOT of fun this week catching up with our good friends the Lobby Dom and J Feezy. These two just dropped “’83 KIDS”, which is a nod to the year both of these gentlemen were born as well all of the great things that the 80’s blessed us with. We get into the origins of the project, how fellow ’83 Kid BLU landed on the album and how one of the standout cuts, “THE COME UP” ft. DIAMOND D & SKYZOO almost never came to be. We also get the scoop on Dillon’s recent encounter with DJ CASH MONEY and how J ended up becoming a recent, regular collaborator with Blu. As you might imagine there are a lot more shenanigans to speak of but ya gotta hit play to fin

BANG! @southernvangard #radio Ep308! This week is truly special Vangardians, as it’s the first time we’ve had an in-studio interview session since COVID shut down the world in March of 2020.

You can imagine the insanity that ensued - lots of trash talk and of course we get into their latest project, “’83 KIDS”, you can hear snippets of the Thurs interview session at the end of the mix. Our good friends TERROR VAN POO and VINNY IDOL also dropped in via Zoom for a mid-mix interview to talk about their new project, “TERRORDACTYL”, which dropped on Halloween. Cap it off with spooky Halloween beats from HOBGOBLIN’s new beat tape - you’ve got yourself one heck of a week here at Southern Vangard Radio.

Ren breaks down why this album is such an important piece of work for him personally as well as professionally, the trials and tribulations it took to get here and how the features unintentionally ended up being so Jersey heavy. We also dig into a little history about his early days in the game, listening to ONLY BUILT FOR CUBAN LINX at the tender age of 8 and how his evolution has been one serendipitous moment after another. There’s much more where this came from but ya gotta press play to get the goods. So press play, swing over to Ren’s Bandcamp to cop “33” now and praise the good Lord above for this #SmithsonianGrade #TwiceAWeek #WeAreTheGard // southernvangard.com // @southernvangar

BANG! @southernvangard #radio presents the MIDAZ THE BEAST interview session! We head to the Sunshine State this week to check in with Orlando’s own MIDAZ THE BEAST, who is high off the CHONG WIZARD RECORDS vinyl and tape release of Feb 2020’s “WHERE THE SIDEWALK ENDS” with DELLE DIGGA.

We also dig into his latest release, “LIVENIGGARAP”, which is produced entirely by NYC’s SHARP, why he’s out for blood this time around and the harsh weather conditions one sometimes has to endure to paint a picture as well as look fresh in a video.

BANG! @southernvangard #radio presents the DJ BONDS & DJ BREEZE interview session! This interview session was supposed to drop last week, in conjunction with Bonds’ and Breeze’s incredible documentary “WHERE WE’RE FROM: RISE OF L.A. UNDERGROUND HIP-HOP” that released worldwide on Aug 24. Let’s just say a few technical difficulties in prepping the episode and Doe’s challenging personal schedule is the ‘cause for the delay - all excuses aside, it’s finally here. If you didn’t know, Bonds and Breeze built CLUB ELEMENTS, one of the most powerful underground nights in West Coast hip-hop history during the late 90s and early aughts, and this documentary shines a much needed light on its impact then and now. The stories are endless - DE LA SOUL and TALIB KWELI showing up to Elements unannounced after a Spitkicker show in LA, ATCQ’s PHIFE DAWG judging emcee battles and every single seminal West Coast hip-hop group passing through it’s doors at one time or another - FREESTYLE FELLOWSHIP, JURASSIC 5, PLANET ASIA, SOULS

BANG! @southernvangard #radio Ep302!

For our Thursday interview session, we head to Orlando to build with MIDAZ THE BEAST, who just released physicals for his 2020 release “WHERE THE SIDEWALK ENDS” on CHONG WIZARD RECORDS, and also recently dropped EP with New York producer SHARP.
