Episode 1, "Hip hop & the Cult of the Self"

Hello fearless reader...
My name is Proseed and I've been a hip hop musician since before I popped my first zit. I needed a blog host to establish a feed for my new podcast, "Feel the Void." Here it is. The first episode has me discussing the "beef between 90s hip hop and millennium hip hop," an article/topic from Hiphopgoldenage.com that came about as a result of this up and coming artist named Vince Staples who decided at the tender age of, 22-23 to start expressing opinions like "90s hip hop is overrated."

I talk about how the current generation has grown up hyper corporate, and I explain why Vince should be quiet.

I even talked about it and recited & referenced some of Witchdoctor's lyrics ("Hurting") when I did a report on different hip hop styles back in 10th or 11th grade in a Speech and Theater electives class. Several tracks are produced by Organized Noize, making any fan of Outkast likely to embrace the album. For me, what stands out about Witchdoctor is his unique and somewhat eccentric way of rhyming. He's sort of choppy in his delivery; bluesy and less interested in inner rhyme. He's also introspective, reflective abou

#6 - Bush, the Butcher in Chief

Episode 6 centers around the former U.S. president George W. Bush and the lies he told about Iraq that resulted in the deaths of 1 million Iraqis. It's a brief diatribe that also addresses the corporate media's role in insulating him from real criticism.

Episode 2, "Web 1.0"

On this episode of Feel the Void , host and musician Proseed gets nostalgic about the early days of the internet, often referred to as "Web 1.0." The larger question for this episode: how has Web 2.0 and the demands of social networks helped or hurt indie artists?
