The First of 2025

The First of 2025 Mr. Al Pete <figure class=" sqs-block-image-figure intrinsic " > We are BYKE...for the first couple of thoughts of 2025. I'm working on doing video for every podcast, including Clear Visions. I had a homie insist that I do a show that speaks on my thoughts that will live on YouTube. I've been putting it off FOREVER, so this are the efforts. In this episode, I speak about the "IT" factor that people believe that Joey Bada$$ is missing and why Hip Hop is judgmental towards emcees and the culture. I also speak on a few books that I'm reading: High and Rising: A Book About De La Soul by Marcus J. Moore, The Spook Who Sat By The Door by Sam Greenlee, and Culturemaking: When Creative Entrepreneurship and Community Building Collide by Houston White. Then I wrapped up the show speaking on the DEI situation as it relates to buying direct and speaking about my favorite, and least favorite social media platforms. More video formats cometh. From Clear Visions and with the other shows on The Neighborhood Podcast Network.
