Kanye West - The College Dropout (w/ Shane Todd)

Recorded over five years as Kanye climbed up the lord’s ladder by getting signed to Roc-A-Fella Records and established himself as the best new producer in early-00s hip-hop by popularizing chipmunk soul samples, before proving himself as a unique artist capable of fusing conscious rap’s social politics with proto-hustle culture megalomania. The College Dropout is chock full of skits, guests and bangers - Jesus Walks, Through The Wire, Two Words. Twenty years before the MAGA hats and the anti-semitism, it’s very much the beginning of Kanye’s story.   Liam couldn’t make it this week, so Christopher had special guest Shane Todd in Monkey Barrel Studios in Edinburgh. Shane is a stand-up comedian and podcaster from Northern Ireland who has done live support for Kevin Hart and Bill Burr, as well as his own solo tours across America, Ireland and the U.K. Christopher and he went scarf-shopping in Galway, once.
