Beginning of Episode (0:49).
In Episode 107, we were joined by the esoteric, abstract, and incredibly smooth rapper from Seattle, AJ Suede. Suede has delivered two of my absolute favourite albums of this year, in his Televangel-produced collaborative album, Metatron’s Cube, and his collaborative album with Small Professor, Hundred Year Darkness.
