Take It Personal (Little Brother Interview)
Every once in a while, an interview turns more into a conversation amongst rap dudes. We anticipated having Rapper Big Pooh and Phonte for just 45 minutes, so when I tell you the interview lasted 2 hours and 30 minutes, it tells you just how funny and relatable these guys are to talk to.
We covered an awful lot, yet it wasn't nearly enough once it was over. We discuss the May the Lord Watch documentary, their love for Beck or Bjork and their hate for Sci-Fi and its magical white people. We touch on their ridiculous stretch of music that ultimately burnt them out.
We get into the brilliance of Curb Your Enthusiasm, Ice Cube's Death Certificate, which is better Low End Theory or Midnight Marauders, and Dominican broads making chili con queso.
We also talk Ghostface, Murs, Common, The Roots, Evidence, Kendrick Lamar and their affection for Outkast.
I saw a great quote the other day and it said, "If Wu-Tang is for the kids, Little Brother is for the ones that raise them."
Thanks to Rapper Big Pooh, Phonte, Andre Barnes and our longtime homie, I.D. for the idea. Stay tuned as we prepare to drop our Little Brother tribute in early March.
Enjoy the discussion.

Take It Personal (Ep 140: Fat Beats & Blunts)
Welcome to season 7 of your favorite podcast. On episode 140, we're paying homage to a time in hip-hop, where the underground dominated our decks and digging at Fat Beats was the ultimate high. We've done 3 tributes to the indie hip-hop era, but sometimes you just want an episode to take you back to that special place.
If you ever experienced running up those steps to Fat Beats to cop the latest record or maybe you ordered your records online, you knew the excitement of finally getting your hands on some of these classic records.
On this episode we have music from our friends High & Mighty, we've got Jigmastas, Juggaknots, The Arsonists, J-Live, L-Fudge, Company Flow, Can Ox, Mike Zoot, Jean Grae, Tony Bones and Lone Catalysts to name a few.
Stay tuned for upcoming TIP episodes, including our 2-part Ice Cube tribute and Del's No Need for Alarm album spotlight and interview.

Customer Reviews
Take it Personal is Still #1 (Krs-One voice)
I can’t believe this podcast has been out for years and I only heard about it 6 weeks ago. It is the funniest, most engaging, in depth hip hop out there. They are extremely opinionated but that adds to the substance of the content matter. As a fellow podcast host (Sneaks, Rhymes and Life Podcast - yes a shameless plug), Take Personal is the best of the best!
The BEST hip hop podcast
The BEST hip hop podcast. Well researched, insightful mixes and great banter. Taking it back to the spirit of boom bap
Do yourself a favour
DJ Premier tribute was too good! Quality mixes and some education for those of us that came in just after the golden era of hip hop
