    What is the #StateOfNEHH? For the past four years, we've gathered with artists and industry professionals to discuss the State of New England Hip-Hop.

  7. LFOD Radio Ep. 170 (Featuring E-Turn)

    Hard to believe that just a few months ago, we were traveling around the country interviewing artists. In fact, Sam spoke to E-Turn exactly two months ago in Orlando, Florida after a show with her Fake Four compadres, Ceschi, Gregory Pepper, Bluebird, and Juanchi. Good people!

  8. LFOD Radio Ep. 169 (Featuring Brandie Blaze)

    Brandie Blaze joined us fresh off the release of Late Bloomer. We unpacked the emotions and experiences behind the album and dove deep into the meaning behind her namesake and the music she creates. It's been a long journey already and this is just the beginning.

  9. LFOD Radio Ep. 168 (Looking back at #24in24)

    Three years ago today, we released our first album. That sentence feels like an understatement. Three years ago, we got 24 of our favorite artists together to record 24 songs in 24 hours and today is the three year anniversary of its release. We reached out to the artists involved, and here's…
