FOTR: Chances With Wolves



We’ve known the guys from Chances with Wolves since probably the second Rub, in 2002. Both Kenan and Kray worked with us at Southpaw for 8 or 9 years, and Kenan has DJed The Rub at least 5 times.

When it came time to pick a guest for our 12 Year Anniversary, Chances was our first choice. Get familiar after the jump:

The Rub 12 Year Anniversary




FOTR: Chino BYI



Many thanks to Chino for writing our names on our anniversary flyer and also just for general stand-up-dudery over the years. Watch the video, then read him on 12OZ Prophet, listen to him on Small Talk and buy all of his books, they’re terrific.

The Rub Seratocast



SeratoCast Mix 6 – The Rub by Serato on Mixcloud

Our friends at Serato asked us to rock volume 6 of their new Seratocast series. We kept it in the vein of our monthly Rub Radio mix, with new music from every corner of our crates, plus we debuted our new single, which comes out in August. Given all the twists and turns, we think it flows remarkably well. Big shout to Prince Rakeem for providing the intro material.

We’re on vacation until June 26th, so no Rub Radio this month. In our absence, there’s no better time to revisit 31 years of Hip-Hop History mixes:
