10 G’s to Get Random with Lady Sovereign | Brad’s Pre-High School Mixtape (Part 1)

We’re officially back from our extended leave, and it’s Brad’s turn to run down his mixtape of songs he listened to pre-high school. Whereas Sean’s “mixtape” was predicibly pretty cool all things considered, Brad’s mixtape is… not. Enjoy?

Topics Discussed:

• The inevitably lengthy discussion of the Sick New World festival
• Disassembling computer towers to burn an American Hi-Fi song
• The profundity of “Understanding in a Car Crash”
• Is it pronounced “Alex is on Fire” or “Alexis on Fire”?
• Did any musician age worse than The Streets?
• The Zach Slow, Jelly Donut, and Lady Sovereign saga
• The Toadies vs. Oasis battle at Brad’s high school
• The time Brad got in trouble because of Fatboy Slim
• The time Brad and his friend got in trouble because of Ludacris
• The highs and lows of the turntablism genre
• Rahzel making the music with his mouth
• A terrifying electronic music video
• And, of course, Methods of Mayhem
