RA, Folkz and all that Jazz | 4.11.11



If anyone ever questions whether Hip-Hop artists in the DMV cover a range of styles and content, first slap 'em in the face, then have them listen to this episode. In the studio were one of the most talked about female MCs on the rise, RA the MC, along with pimpin' himself, Whitefolkz (http://www.whitefolkzworld.com/). Along with the ISG crew, both discussed what they were currently up to (check out the Whitefolkz app in the Andriod market) and each one cited some of their musical influences up to this point in their respective careers. Plus, Ill Street's own, DJ 2-Tone Jones, played a few exclusive selections from his Shaolin Jazz: The 37th Chamber concept album, which was officially released for free download earlier that day (get yours here: http://gmoney77.wordpress.com/2011/04/11/shaolin-jazz-the-37th-chamber-the-full-project/).
