    • Storia della musica

The fiercely independent nature of the Bay Area music scene has proven to have both positive and adverse effects on the creativity and overall commercial success of the Hyphy Movement. In episode 5 of Remember the Time, titled, Is Hyphy Dead?, host Branden LSK speaks with artists and label executives about why the movement was somewhat short-lived—from the politics of competing radio stations to other regions capitalizing on the hyphy sound, and thus diluting its aural authenticity. Expect to hear from Mistah F.A.B., Too $hort, LaRussell, hip-hop journalist, Eric Arnold; No Vultures podcast host, Lord Rab and more.
