Much love to the fellas from The Block for passin' through to chat with me and play some tunes. For the second half of this episode, we talk with Mr. Klean and For Play about the intersection of hip-hop and reggae culture, alongside their experience coming up as DJ's in Brooklyn. They put together a genre-bending set of wicked tunes to go along with that theme - everyone from Grace Jones, to Boogie Down Productions, to Barrington Levy - all in the mix. You can hear their show, The Block live right here on BBOXRADIO.COM - each and every Monday night, 7:30-9:30PM EST.
