Diggin' In The Digits

On Ep.132 of DITD: Continuing our UK Black History Month celebrations with a retrospective on the philosophical Akala.

Show Notes

Akala is arguably one of the most intelligent people in this world we call Hip-Hop. From the lyrics to the concepts, to the lectures & books outside of the music. It's hard to even encapsulate how deep his philosophical brain goes in the music, but we give it a damn good go.
