Ah yeah!! Back like we never left! On this episode we have an in depth discussion with Ohio mainstays J. Rawls and Cas Metah. We'd be lyin' to say we weren't geeked to talk to these dudes. I believe they set the bar when it comes to hustle and work ethic. So when we found they did an EP together ("Criminal Blinded" out on Fat Beats) we had to get them on to talk about it. On the first half of the show we discuss the recording process and the inspiration behind the concept of the EP, as well as other projects from both J. and Cas. We all know J. Rawls as an producer and MC, but many don't know he is an educator as well and he shares with us how he uses music to relate to and teach his students. Edutainment at it's finest!
The second half of the show Cas Metah talks about how he stays so productive as well as his thoughts on the different scenes within hip-hop. He shares his experience on trying to break free of being typecast as a certain type of emcee.
We hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed making it!!

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
