We are honoured to be back at it today with the 750 General, legend and icon of Australian Hip Hop culture, Lazy Grey for the 138th instalment of Beers, Beats & The Biz.

It’s been a long time in the making but here we go, part one of our epic conversation with Lazy Grey, from his earliest memories of hip hop, friends and influences and on through his early demos and albums.

We talk all things, from the Blackstump tape up until Banned In Queensland and a bunch of songs and one-off productions in between - All She Wrote, Writers Anon, Honour To Be, Move On the Pavement, Brothers Stoney, Boney & Stoney, Rock Da City and so much more.

This one is very special to us and we can’t thank LG enough for his time and years of dedication.

It’s a ripper episode and we can’t thank P.SMURF enough for his ongoing contributions to the culture and for stopping by The Shire studios for an amazing conversation.

We are honoured to be back at it today with part 2 of our conversation with Sofles, the journey continues on the 133rd instalment of Beers, Beats & The Biz.

We pick things up after a quick cigarette break and get into everything from the selection of Sofle’s signature colour to the Ironlak writer team, the impact of Limitless and on through his journeys to various countries, use of psychedelics and self discovery.

This conversation and journey with Sofles is an absolute honour and a rare glimpse into the mind of a creative juggernaut - we hope you enjoy listening to this conversation as much as we enjoyed having the conversation.
