Episode 24 - Travelin' Man w/ ARod

Street Eats and Dope Beats

Post recording our 24th (Ironic, because it's one of Kobe's retired jersey numbers) on Sunday, Jan. 26th, we learned of a helicopter accident that took place in Calabasas, CA that involved the passing of Los Angeles Laker Legend, Kobe Bryant; his daughter, Gigi Bryant; Payton Chester, Sarah Chester, Alyssa Altobelli, Keri Altobelli, John Altobelli, Christina Mauser, and Ara Zobayan. We want to take the time and acknowledge these individuals that were on their way to a basketball tournament at the Mamba Academy in Newbury Park, CA.
On behalf of the Productive Culture and Street Eats & Dope Beats family, we want to extend our heartfelt condolences and our sympathy to all the families affected by this recent tragedy.
In this episode, The Musubi Boyz sit down with ARod. Former host of The Hip-Hop Show that aired on public access television in the early 2000s that focused on the Underground Hip-Hop culture and movement in Los Angeles and across the nation. ARod articulately shares his passion for Underground Hip-Hop; the personal experiences of hosting The Get Up Show; the foundations and relationships built on his unique ideals and passion to transforming that passion to enjoying the new Jazz scene; traveling around the globe to find local parties that feel like home, and shutting out gentrifiers in his neighborhood.
