    Heavy D: Nuttin' But Love (Remix)

    No new episode this week, but here's one from the catalog that we think you should get into. Originally released in 2024, on this episode we talked about Mr. Big Stuff, The Heavster, The Overweight Lover, out of Moneyearnin’ Mount Vernon, the diddly, diddly, diddly, diddly, diddly D. One of a small number of people who have done a song with both Michael and Janet Jackson. The man who is pretty much responsible for kicking off Uptown Records, since he was the first act signed to the label, and as an executive at Uptown he's was instrumental in bringing Jodeci, Monifah, Soul For Real and others to the company. Along with DJ Eddie F, Trouble T-Roy and G-Wiz aka The Boyz, he brought us hit after hit. He could do new jack swing, boom bap, reggae, pop...he could do it all. There have been very few hip hop artists who could seamlessly maneuver through so many styles and genres at such a high level, all while never compromising his authenticity. Since his untimely passing in 2011, he's been sorely missed, and that's why we're talking about none other than Heavy D.

    On this episode we're discussing one of the greatest albums in hip hop history, JAY-Z’s debut album, Reasonable Doubt, on its 30th anniversary. Before the album dropped in 1996, Jay was building his name through early collabs with Jaz-O (“Hawaiian Sophie,” “The Originators”) Big Daddy Kane (“Show & Prove”) and Original Flavor (“Can I Get Open?”) as well as his own singles (“In My Lifetime,” “In My Lifetime” Remix, “I Can’t Get Wid Dat” and “Dead Presidents”).  We get into how these songs helped to shape his sound, talk about our favorite songs from Reasonable Doubt, discuss how the production helped to set the tone of the album, touch on who JAY-Z was at the time, and how it differs from the JAY-Z we would come to know in later years.
