Take It Personal (Ep 151: Dah Shinin' Album Spotlight) with General Steele

Season 8 · Episode 151

Tuesday, April 1, 2025 • Duration 04:14:41

On episode 151, we're teleporting back to 1995. If you had a 5-disc CD changer in the whip, chances are you had Dah Shinin' in one of those slots.

Tek and Steele announced their presence with authority on Enta da Stage in '93, then dropped the classic Bucktown b/w Let's Git It On single in early '94, which had everyone patiently waiting for their album.

In January '95, the wait was over and Dah Shinin' immediately became a favorite. With their witty harmonizing 1-2 punch, along with the Da Beatminerz, Dah Shinin' was classic upon first listen and the birth of what we now know as the Boot Camp Clik.

We're joined by General Steele, as we go track-by-track with him on Dah Shinin'. Learn all about your favorites, whether it's Timz 'n' Hood Chek, Sound Bwoy Bureill, Bucktown, Hellucination, Let's Git It On or Cession at da Doghillee. Steele shares intimate details about the making of every track, including the remixes and some non-album cuts.

Steele also shares some hilarious and fascinating stories about recording @ D&D Records, Buckshot, Sean Price, working with Mary J. Blige and of course Tupac Shakur.

If you're a Smif-N-Wessun fan or a Boot Camp fan, you're not going to want to miss this episode!

Take It Personal (Ep 118: A Tribute to Tame One)

Thursday, March 20, 2025 • Duration 03:50:18

Episode 118 is our tribute to the late, great Tame One. We love doing tributes on Take It Personal, but we absolutely hate having to do a tribute them under these conditions. We've lost many great artists over the years like Biz Markie, Kangol Kid, MF DOOM, Prince Markie Dee, Gift of Gab, Shock G, Zumbi, Black Rob, Double K, Len Hub (The Roots), Malik B, DJ Kay Slay, Coolio, Takeoff, Pop Smoke, Hurricane G, Ecstasy, Blacastan and Don Newkirk to name a few. And it feels like we're still getting over the loss of Prodigy, Phife Dawg, Sean Price, Pimp C and Guru.

On this episode, we're honoring the art created by Rahem Brown, better known as Tame One, one half of the Artifacts and an intricate part of New Jersey hip-hop movement. Tame entered our lives in the early 90s with witty lyrics, an appreciation for graffiti and a passion for hip-hop. He went on to give us two remarkable albums with El Da Sensei as the Artifacts before he took a journey into his solo career. On this tribute we're showcasing everything from the early days with El and Redman to the Eastern Conference days. We got everything from the Leak Bros to The Weathermen to all his great collabos with artists like Del, Sean Price, Hussein Fatal, Yak Ballz and Govna Mattic.

This is our Tame One Tribute. We hope you enjoy it!

RIP Tame One

Take It Personal (Ep 111: 1994 Tribute Part 3)

Season 6 · Episode 111

Thursday, March 20, 2025 • Duration 03:31:56

I'll save the long description because you just need to hit that play button! What you're about to listen to is one of the greatest (if not the greatest) years in hip-hop. We all know '88 is the blueprint with It Takes A Nation of Millions, Critical Beatdown, Straight Outta Compton, Great Adventures of Slick Rick, Follow The Leader, Long Live The Kane, Straight Out The Jungle, By All Means Necessary and Strictly Business.

But do you really listen to more music from 1988 than 1994? That's the difference and we plan to make the case starting with part 1 of our 1994 Tribute. In the meantime, here are 6 simple steps we ask from you.

1. Hit play.

2. Grab some old Source magazines from '94 to read while listening.

3. If you're streaming on Spotify or iTunes, please rate and review our show.

4. Become a Patreon member for a few bucks a month and support your favorite podcast ⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/TakeItPersonal⁠⁠

Take It Personal (Ep 97: Blu Tribute + Album Spotlight + Interview) with Blu

Season 5 · Episode 97

Tuesday, March 18, 2025 • Duration 04:06:29

Fourteen years ago, Blu took hip-hop by storm. Along with Exile, he gave us the modern-day classic Below The Heavens and we've all been hooked ever since. On episode 97, we sit down with Blu to discuss his lengthy catalog and career.

Blu shares stories about rapping for Suge Knight, almost signing to Death Row Records and signing with Warner Brothers. He breaks down some of our favorite tracks off Below The Heavens, working with so many great producers over the years and the making of his latest album, The Color Blue. There were a lot of laughs and surprises while speaking with Blu, and we think you'll agree with us when we say, this is one of our best interviews, ever.

For our Florida listeners, we teamed up with the Laughing Spree Fest - Florida's biggest comedy festival at the Sunset Cove Amphitheater in Boca Raton December 3-4. We'll be giving away tickets to a few lucky listeners to this mega comedy festival featuring 20 performers including Bryan Callen, Jim Norton and Andrew Schulz. Tickets on sale now and if you enter promo code TIPLAUGH, you'll save $5 off each ticket.

And now, our interview and tribute with our boy, Blu.

Take It Personal (Ep 138: This One's for Barkley)

Season 8 · Episode 138

Tuesday, March 18, 2025 • Duration 03:16:54

On Episode 138, we're paying respects to our late friend and longtime supporter of Take It Personal, Matt "Barkley" Temchatin. Many of you knew Barkley as @HipHopAutographs, as he was one of the most celebrated hip-hop collectors online. Barkley unexpectedly passed away a few months ago, so we wanted to honor him with our last episode of 2023.

Barkley, like myself, started out doing college radio but his love for hip-hop only grew as he got older. He went on to run a record store and work as a record promoter in Philly, later graduating to a family man. His true passion can be seen when you view his IG @HipHopAutographs or if you recall the time he amazed everyone with his appearance on D-Stroy's Show Off Your Gems.

Barkley was a huge advocate of new hip-hop, so on 138, we are playing some of our favorite records that have recently come out in honor of him. We've got new music from Black Milk, Jay Royale, Elcamino, Torae, Beneficence, RJ Payne, Mickey Diamond & Big Ghost Ltd, Vinnie Paz, Little Brother, AZ, Supastition, Smoke DZA, Him Lo, Stu Bangas, The Good People, Edo. G, 38 Spesh, Open Mike Eagle, Blockhead, Paul Wall & Termanology, Lord Sko, Czarface, NapsNdreds and Keanutis Smith & Sense to name a few.

Thanks to all of you for holding us down in our 7th season of Take It Personal. We'll be back in mid-January with Episode 139, our Patreon exclusive. It's our way of saying thank you to all of our Patreon members who have supported us throughout the year and return with a special episode in late-January with some brothers we love.

From all of us at TIP, have a happy and heathy New Year. Enjoy the show.

This one's for your Barkley!
