Big Dookie Chain Episode 41: Mr. Cheeks (of Lost Boyz)

For episode 41 of the #BigDookieChain podcast, we sit down with Mr. Cheeks (of Lost Boyz).

We discuss the stories behind the classics ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

- “Legal Drug Money”

- “Love, Peace & Nappiness”

…and the hits 🤩

- ‘Jeeps, Lex Coups, Bimaz & Benz’

- ‘Me and My Crazy World’

- ‘Music Makes Me High’

- ‘The Yearn’

…and of course the wildly famous ‘RENEE’ 👸🏽

Did you know that was based on a true story⁉️

We talk Cheeks’ uncle Gil Scott-Heron 🎼

We discuss how Cheeks & Freaky Tah met when Tah and his dad were remodeling Cheeks’ grandma’s kitchen 👵🏽

We talk Canibus being the first person they’d ever seen bring a laptop into the studio (when recording his legendary verse for ‘Beasts From The East’) 💻

We discuss how Lost Boyz made the song ‘Jeeps, Lex Coups, Bimaz & Benz’ to let people in the hood know they’d really made it… then further drove that point home (literally) by filming the video in heart of South Jamaica, Queens 👑

We talk DJ Spigg Nice becoming a bank robber and spending 19 years behind bars 🚨

…and so much more!
