#146 - June 8th, 2015 [2Pac, DJ Shadow, Z-Trip, Jackson 5, Fatboy Slim]
Back once again with the ill behavior. It’s freakin’ summer and there’s no better summer anthem than 2Pac praising California. DJ Shadow cuts himself up before The Papes Come, Z-Trip remixes the Jackson 5 (with subtlety and class) and we drop classic summertime RJD2. The Herbaliser brings the heat with a storming live one and the Propellerheads do their best James Bond movie score climaxing with a ripping bassline. MARRS and Dee-Lite get us shaking our booty before we have a flashback to Summer Love ’98 from Fatboy Slim. The lord giveth and the lord taketh away, but not hiphop yo.
