Today's affiliate sponsor is Solo.to. Nothing frustrates me more than taking the time to record videos for social media and saying, check the link up in my bio, only to realize that I forgot to update the link. I just keep thinking about all of those people who went to the page to look at my bio only to be disappointed.

DJ Tracy's Thanksgiving Experience

00:01:52
Speaker
Happy Tuesday. Just like that. I'm back. Yo, it's DJ Tracy Treats and welcome to the pod. I don't know where I started singing these jingles, but honestly, I think it's because my wife
00:02:03
Speaker
She been singing lately, y'all. If anybody has watched Bob's Burgers, okay, she is Linda from Bob's Burgers. I am the grumpy Bob just working at the family business, you know, just doing a dang own thing. So I thank y'all for rocking with me and indulging this with me. I got three new hot podcasts for you to listen to. I am back in Indiana.
00:02:22
Speaker
for the Thanksgiving holiday. It's cold as hell here. This is probably the last year I'm coming back. Hopefully my family and everybody is listening so they can hear the announcement this way. I'm not gonna keep coming back into this tundra. Literally 20 degrees, okay?
00:02:37
Speaker
Okay, last night it took our bags 257 hours to hit the baggage claim. Why? I don't know. It was only 10 employees and a whole airport, okay? Okay, I don't know what happened. I don't know, only two flights landed. Indianapolis? What was going on last night? Anyway, y'all, I'm pretty grumpy about the holidays. If anybody knows me truly, you know that that's just how I am. I'll see y'all on January when everybody's ready to work on their life and I can help y'all again, all right?
00:03:05
Speaker
Let's jump right into the episode with these three new podcasts for you to listen to. So today is Tuesday. I still got to work today. Um, like many of y'all. So we just going to keep it rolling on working virtually. I'm on Eastern town, working West coast town. So I'm going to be

Cordae's Hip Hop Journey

00:03:18
Speaker
working out damn day. First podcast I'm going to listen to to help my day is, uh, the bridge 50 years of hip hop. So this is a new podcast. Y'all it's a Spotify original. And, um,
00:03:32
Speaker
Nas is on here. I didn't even see this one. I clicked it the first time. That's lit. So let me read the actual description of the podcast. It says, join Nas and Minya, miss info. Oh, I don't know who this lady is, but maybe I should follow her on Instagram or something. Oh, for the bridge, candid conversation with Nas.
00:03:49
Speaker
The legendary figures who developed the culture and the new generation of voices carrying hip hop forward. We celebrate hip hop now and through his 50th anniversary in 2023. Y'all better be planning for the future. I need to be a part of that. It was written and now it's heard. Love that. Okay. So the episode, okay. I just see they dropped the episode on Mary J. Blige today. I should have looked at the Mary J. Blige.
00:04:12
Speaker
But you know what, I'm gonna go ahead and give my homie Cordae some respect. So the first episode that I'm listening to is the second episode of the entire series and it's called Cordae. I think this is important because Cordae, I think, in my opinion, is one of the only hip hop artists out that still wants to pay homage to like regular hip hop and do regular hip hop and make it cool and transforming that sound into something that's just articulate and beautifully written and
00:04:41
Speaker
I love Cordae's pants, so I just like good words inside a rap song, so I love it. Okay, let's read his description of his episode. One can feel the admiration in the room as Cordae gets to speak with one of his childhood rap heroes. The North Carolina MC even raps lyrics to I Can back to Nas. Cordae also tells Nas and Ms. Info that the reason he wanted to travel to Africa, no.
00:05:04
Speaker
tells miss info the reason he wanted to travel back to Africa and explains the competitive mind state he's in as he completes his next album. The amount of resource research that Cordae does is phenomenal y'all if you look at him on instagram he's starting companies like i can organically i feel connected to him and i'm not even a cordae fan where i can spit any of his lyrics back to him like his music hits
00:05:28
Speaker
I listen to it but I'm not like listening to it like I would a Beyonce album or something like that where it's like word for word I can spit that I too was a kid that grew up listening to I know I can't I actually me and box the artist and I hope she listening to this we did a version of this at church we still we had a Christian rapper group called
00:05:47
Speaker
Front page, we delivered good news, okay? We delivered good news, our tagline. Of course, we even had a hype man, Ayanna. Shouts out to Ayanna, yo. She was doing the pop-locking dance moves way, way back from before in the church. You know, it was praise pop-locking at that time. But anyway.
00:06:03
Speaker
I'ma check my man Cordae out. I wanna hear about his new album. He's getting to work with some people who are legends in the game and I'm sure all of his dreams are coming true. And he's still making music that's like true to the

Podcast Recommendations and Previews

00:06:14
Speaker
art. So y'all check out Cordae in episode two of The Bridge, 50 years of hip hop that you can find.
00:06:19
Speaker
exclusively on Spotify, and just a reminder for people who might just be checking in, every single week I have a podcast playlist on Spotify with the week's date on it, the Friday of that week's date will be on it, and it's all of the podcasts I've talked about on my show for the week.
00:06:35
Speaker
So I'm gonna try to find a better way to like publish this to the world so people will know that it's out there. But you can literally go through week by week and see what the hell I've been listening to, which is pretty lit because I'm a professional podcaster. I listen to podcasts all day and I'm recommending some good ones for you to listen to. So that's the reason for you to stick around.
00:06:51
Speaker
All right, moving on to the second podcast that I'm checking out. This one just caught my eye. It's called Code Red. It's a new podcast. It's called The Agent, okay? Let me read y'all this description. It says, the agent is the remarkable true story of Jack Barsky, the longest surviving known member of the KGB illegals program, operated during the height of the Cold War. Barsky hid in plain sight in America for 10 years, all the while leading dual lives on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean.
00:07:22
Speaker
On one faithful day, he was confronted with an impossible choice. The agent is a production of Imperative Entertainment in association with WinJoy. Okay, this is all a credit to whatever. But this got me because if y'all watch Blacklist on Netflix, okay, first of all, I don't watch a lot of TV, so you really don't ever hear me talk about watching TV. And I know I probably talk about not watching TV so much on this podcast, but I'm a podcaster, I'm an auditory person. My headphones is in, I'm not watching TV. But anyway,
00:07:51
Speaker
My wife got me in on Blacklist. I don't know how exactly we got to Blacklist, but we actually binge watched that. So now we are actually in the current season, which is season eight. Raymond Reddington. This is like the story or the real life story of Raymond Reddington. And I knew that shit was real. That's what I said. I knew it was real because
00:08:11
Speaker
anything that's that code, it got to be some truth in it. And I'm a Raymond Redditor fan. I'm not saying I would have been down with KGB and the code, but I want to hear more about this podcast. So it looks like they have
00:08:23
Speaker
five episodes that's already up and they're posting it biweekly. Oh, launching every Monday. It's a 12 episode series. So you ain't even gotta listen that long. I'm gonna listen to chapter one just to see what happened. Hopefully it's got some good audio scape stuff in it. Cause it's like, he's on his way in the subway. I want to hit some train tracks. I want to feel like I'm there. I feel like podcasts have been doing a really good job of like taking me into a different world with sound. I probably review this one on Friday. So y'all check out the agent.

Review of 'Respectfully Justin'

00:08:50
Speaker
Co-read chapter one.
00:08:52
Speaker
I'm excited about it as you can tell. So excited that I just clicked out my playlist. All right, final podcast that I'm checking out today is another one that's kind of a pop culture-y one, but this one updates every month. So Justin Laboie. It says, so I'm listening to respectfully Justin. I always say watching, but just know that I'm watching these podcasts on YouTube. It says, this one's brought to us by Revolt.
00:09:22
Speaker
Demon Time creators, Justin Laboy and Justin Dior Combs, which is Diddy's son, welcomes celebrity guests for hilarious provocative conversations in this not suitable for work mashup of social media and late night talk show. They always have really, really heavy hitters on here. So this recent episode, August 11th, oh man, this ain't, this ain't published in a minute. Where they at? Where they at? That's cool though. Cause I haven't checked out this OC Genesis, Bia and Druski.
00:09:51
Speaker
with talking about partying in LA Hills. I wanna hear this because I need to get the cheat code. I ain't really went out and really tried to party or nothing, cause you know, COVID is real and ain't nobody trying to be on that. But one LA open back up and we finally can be at a level where, you know, you ain't gonna catch COVID at the club again.
00:10:09
Speaker
Um, I want to, you know, get in the heels, see where I can move and shake and what's the, what I need to do there. So I'm excited to hear about that one. I'm probably going to listen to that one's 31 minutes and I'm going to listen to the one that's from July 7th as well. Cash doll and Ruby Rose on sex and relationships.
00:10:25
Speaker
I'm gonna add that one to my playlist just as a bonus because I'm a Cashdoll fan. She about to have a baby. This is like the time to be alive. I love the baby announcement, everything. I'm obsessed with Cashdoll. Talking about another Detroit rapper. On yesterday's episode, I was talking about Big Sean. Now I'm talking about Cashdoll. So definitely check this one out.
