That was one of the greatest freestyles and rhyming I've heard on my show!

     I want to thank my brother and CT's own RnB singer Omar Wilson for calling into my show last night on WSJU radio at St. John's University!

He was a performer in a group called Lost Souls, from North Carolina. He described what it's like being from Norwalk, CT as well as being a three time Apollo winner. He has opened up for artists such as Boyz II Men, Jagged Edge, and Justin Timberlake. He has many underground songs such as The Jungle, 100 Ways, and Ride.

Hip Hop legend Rampage The Last Boy Scout talks about the Flipmode Squad and being on the Flava In Ya Ear Remix on "Sports and Hip-Hop with DJ Mad Max" on WSJU Radio at St. John's University

     I want to thank Hip-Hop legend Rampage for calling into my show last night on WSJU Radio at St. John's University. He mentioned many rappers who influenced him including Special Ed and Chubb Rock. Growing up in Flatbush Brooklyn, NY he lived around many of these rappers. Busta Rhymes is his first cousin and they are in the same group known as the Flipmode Squad. He talked about signing his first deal and being on the greatest Hip-Hop remix of all time, which is Craig Mack's Flava In Ya Ear Remix. He discussed his friendships with Craig Mack and The Notorious B.I.G. aka Biggie Smalls. He has another song with Craig Mack that they recently had recorded before Craig Mack sadly, passed away. We talked about his classic first album Scout's Honor... by Way of Blood and the hit song off of the album Wild for da Night. One of the greatest parts about this interview was that Rampage was freestyling at times! He started the hashtag/term for Hip-Hop today and that is mumble rap. He has kept it real from day one and tells it like it is. He made his music the way he wanted to and I have always loved the grittiness in his music. He has a lot going on: he is going to be in an upcoming movie, he is creating a cartoon, he has his own headphone brand, he has his own sports and Hip-Hop show on NBC, and he is a DJ. Be on the lookout because he has a vault of tracks recorded and he will be dropping a new album soon called When Hell Freezes Over! Thanks again Rampage for calling into my show last night, I had a great time!

Shawn Stockman of the legendary RnB group Boyz II Men on "Sports and Hip-Hop with DJ Mad Max" with guest co-host graphic designer Zaire Adams on WSJU Radio at St. John's University

     I want to thank Shawn Stockman for calling into my show last night. He is very personable and tells it like it is. He gave his opinion of the current generation of RnB artists out now as well as the Grammys. He gave backstories on most of the Boyz II Men albums including their first album Cooleyhighharmony, in which he said that every song on that album are their demos. The story behind their 1997 masterpiece album Evolution is heartbreaking, in which race started to play an issue with the direction of the group, in which they thought they might be finished with music. However, they would go on to make more great albums such as Nathan Michael Shawn Wanya, Full Circle,  Throwback, Vol. 1, Collide, Love, and as well as their most recent Under The Streetlight. This year is the 25th anniversary of their sensational 1994 album "II", in which the Boyz II Men logo came into effect and would forever leave an imprint on music. They are going on tour for their anniversary of  "II", so be on the lookout because they may be heading to your city soon! We talked about how technology is changing our world. We discussed his newest Ep titled Shawn and he will be releasing his first solo album this May! It is possible that we could also get another Boyz II Men album as well. Shawn also has a radio show on Dash Radio called Boomerang Radio, in which I highly recommend everyone to go check it out. On his radio show he plays 90s music along with talented artists from today. Shawn's passion's are playing the guitar and performing for fans. God bless you and keep doing what makes you happy! Thank you for everything you have done for music and we all can't wait to see what you have coming next!
