The Urban Renewal Project January 30/08
CFRO (Co-op Radio) 102.7fm 10pm-12am

Featured Da Young Vet’s, Torae, new album “Daily Conversation” for our double shot. This MC has got the talent and backing of fellow NYC heavyweights such as DJ Premier, DJ Eclipse and Pete Rock co-signing him as the realness.

As far as interviews, we continued with our Queensbridge theme being joined by Cormega, “The Realest” without a doubt. Cormega gave us even more thoughts on the QB movement. If you are still longing for more insight on Cormega peep his recently released DVD documentary “Who I Am”, which includes a killer bonus soundtrack CD filled with all new music.

In addition, as promised we had the G.O.A.T. of female MCs take sometime out of her busy schedule to let us know all about her new group “Almost September” and how the first single banging “Beautiful” came to be. In addition, as one might expect when in the presence of a hip-hop legend, we were treated to some insight about the rap game where Lyte let us know about our power as individuals/customers to combat the BS!

Let us know your what you think about the interviews, music, who you would like us to interview in the future or just your general thoughts on the show. We would love to hear from you!
