I’ll be honest; I know next to nothing about the hip-hop scene in Nashville. So, when it struck me that it would be interesting to compile a podcast of some of the more forward thinking acts coming out of our area I really had no idea where to start. Fortunately, I knew Sean L. Maloney would. I hit him up one night with the request to put together a half hour of interesting songs and he turned it around in a days time. The end result is a blend of traditional hip-hop, soul, some R&B, beats and a good deal of great.
So, without further ado – here’s the 45th volume of the podcast. Curated by Sean L. Maloney and consisting entirely of the finest in Nashville based hip-hop. As someone coming from a place of total ignorance on the offerings of hip-hop from our town I think I can safely say that there’s no way you won’t be entirely engaged by this.

Great list!! The hip-hop scene in Nashville has made huge strides recently and I’m so glad it’s getting recognition. Chancellor Warhol is one of my favorite artists from the area and I’m so glad to see him on here! Good work.

Mon June 6, 2011 at 3:21 pmSick. I recommend following along with Maloney’s weekly local hip-hop column, “Party and Bullsh*t,” over at the Cream. I’d be clueless without it.
