Zo WIlliams: The Voice of Reason – The Anatomy of Hip-Hop (An Indepth Look at Hip-Hop & Relationships)

One of my favorite things to listen to for the past 4 years is Foxxhole Radio on SiriusXM (now on siriusXM 98). The main reason I keep holding on nowadays is Zo Williams show “The Voice of Reason”. He covers relationships topics and even slides things into the discussion that don’t seem to be about relationships until he puts his spin on it. This particular show I wanted to share with the Fro’ Nation because he’s talking about Hip-Hop and relationships. He discusses an array of issues within Hip-Hop and rap and how that pertains to our relationships (including V-Nasty and the use of the N-word in society). He has a lot of guest and authors on the show including the Icon Professor Griff and Hip-Hop (legend?) Play from Kid ‘N’ Play. It’s a good jumping point for discussion and some very interesting things are said…too many for me to summarize. So if you have some time, take a listen and let me know what you think.

You can hear Zo’s show on Thursday Nights on SiriusXM 98 and follow him on twitter @zowilliams

    1. Thanks Dub, I was hoping I didn’t post another nappydud…I seem to be pretty good at that lol. I listened to this joint like 3 times in a row, adding the books to my amazon wish list. Zo spits a LOTof real truth on hsi shows and is an avid Hip Hop fan. Shows like this are favorites.

      Any thoughts on anything in particular that was said?

      1. I the double standard that applies to balck women and white women. IE paris Hilton becomes famous for a sextape. How many black women would that happen to? None!

        I also like the comparision or the contrast of Hip Hop and other genres. Sometimes ifeel that sometimes Hip Hop takes a bad wrap when other genres have similiar content but the presentation isn’t as “in your face”.

        so many different things. I’m re listening right now.

  1. I’m downloading this right now so I can listen to it. For some reason when I try to play it on the site it stay on buffering smh!

      1. Don’t you know AT&T emailed my ass yesterday telling me I went over my 150 GB limit for the month.. Man that is some bullshit. I’m still downloading shit though. I’m listening to this audio piece now, pretty interesting.

        1. damn, they let you know you had a cap before this incident or they wait until you went over it to call you?

          1. They wait until I went over and then they sent me an email last night. I’m like “Wtf man”. They should be glad I been on time with my payments. At least they aren’t like comcast. Comcast stupid ass jacked the damn price on me on a bill. Explain to me how I pay $60 a month then the next bill come out to $300? That was from cable and internet. I didn’t pay that bill and I left Comcast hanging. This was back in 09.

  2. This shit is awesome. As you can see they give 2Pac his props and they even play “Changes” & “Dear Mama”…. Pac is still that dude!

    Anyway man it is a lot of things on this audio piece you can talk about. I like the comparison with the fast food & hip hop music.

    I’m a little half way through this clip. I should be studying for finals but this shit got me hooked. Thanks for this one Saule! You’re the shit homie I don’t care what nobody says

    1. LMAO@ “I don’t care what nobody says”

      That Fast Foot analogy was so on damn point. I used it 3 times the day after I heard it. They had nothing to say back to me after that.
