A-frame cabin up in the Piute Mountains, California. Photo by Aaron Chervenak.
I want to live in an A-frame up in the mountains so bad. I love being in a city but I also hate neighbors.

2) I wrote about Orlando’s Armstrong and Grandaddy Souf for the RBMA carpetbagger column.
Lately I’ve been thinking about the whole retro subgenre thing and it reminds me of the thrash revival that happened in metal a couple of years back. Thrash never really went away but it did get super boring for a bit and then a few years back a bunch of young bands popped up doing that style (warbringer, merciless death, havok, bonded by blood, zombie holocaust, Mantic Ritual, lich king).
There are some parallels but I think within rap which borrows and samples so much lines get more blurred especially when everyone wants to have fucking secrets. With metal they might borrow riffs or maybe do a cover they don’t really just go jacking for beats and drop youtube triangle wormholes.
It’s weird, like I’m excited to see people making new music of styles that people don’t really do because I want more of that style to exist. Like these producers Hydroz were taking southern rap and making miami bass edits, lil scrappy at 140bpm type shit, it was super sick but never went anywhere because everyone wanted bmore remixes.
I guess I wish rap would take more from what some of the metal kids have done and toured with the older bands, warbringer and exodus for example. Like I’d be juiced for a Purp and Tommy Wright tour. That’s also why I enjoyed the whole Exquire, el-p, Killer Mike tour. El and Mike were enough on their own but it was dope to see some of the shows get reinvigorated with a mix of new and more veteran acts. Might give these young kids some fucking pointers on how to actually execute a live show too.

Well this is probably the least professional sounding episode to date because we really need Matthew’s guidance but we have to press on. This is our tribute show to our friend and co-host Matthew Africa. We decided to invite some friends of Matthew’s down to share some memories and music. Considering this is Stay Hatin we couldn’t just have a sob session so this episode is plenty of angry obnoxious raps, some new rap, some old rap but mostly a lot of talking and laughs. Oh and I just realized when compiling the tracklist, this episode ended up going pretty heavy on the Waka Flocka, sorry Matthew but that’s what happens when you leave me in control.
This episode actually aired live on All Day Play Friday night, which is where we record most of our shows if you don’t know. Since this was a live show I am just posting it as is so we’re not talking over instrumentals which was something Matthew would always add later so we didn’t just come off like a room full of goons yelling at each other.
As I’ve posted before Soft Money andme will be continuing with the show and try keep things interesting. There might be some changes in how we do things but we’ll do our best. Matthew did make it easy for us so there are some challenges but I think if we just try remember to do things the way Matthew did then we’ll be fine.
