    Apr 4 2026

    On Episode 183 of Take It Personal Radio, we're delivering you another special sample driven episode. Like we did a few episodes back with Method Man, we're now giving Nas the same treatment. All these songs feature a Nas sample. Many of which you'll recognize and some maybe new discoveries.

    We've got music from Real Live, Royal Flush, Black Attack, Bahamadia, Scientific, Masta Ace, Big L, Mac Miller, Ras Kass, Lexicon, Mic Geronimo, Blacastan, Darc Mind, Reks, Jigmastas, Common and of course, Jay-Z.

    At the break, we discuss our recent TIP outing at the Rakim concert. We answer some of your questions and discuss the impact Illmatic had on changing standards for a hip-hop classic. Keep it locked because this show is all about replayability!

    Take It Personal (Ep 182: Bob Power, You There?)
    Mar 17 2026
    On Episode 182 of Take It Personal Radio, we pay homage to the late, great Bob Power. More than an engineer, Bob was an architect of sound — helping shape the standard in hip-hop. From A Tribe Called Quest, The Roots, Erykah Badu, D’Angelo, Common, to De La Soul, his legacy is woven into the culture. This episode is dedicated to that legacy. At the break: we dive into Bob’s catalog, announce our Get On Down giveaway winners, and pay respects to another fallen soldier, Lord Sear.

    Take It Personal (Ep 181: M-E-T-H-O-D to Our Madness)
    Mar 7 2026

    On Episode 181 of Take It Personal Radio, we’re doing something a little different. After 10 years and more than 180 shows, you’ve got to get a little creative. So we put together two remarkable mixes with one common theme: Method Man.

    These aren’t all songs that feature Method Man (although there are a few of those in here). Instead, these are joints that sample Method Man. And since there are so many great ones out there, we thought it would be a really cool idea to gather them all up and dedicate an entire episode to them.

    We’ve got music from Shyheim, Ras Kass, E.C. Illa, Frankie Cutlass, Keith Murray, The Beatnuts, Artifacts, Lords of the Underground, Gang Starr, Apathy, Homeliss Derilek, 13, Kane & Abel, MF Grimm, Marley Marl, The Whoridas, Naughty By Nature and so much more.

    At the break, we also talk about the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame nominees for the 2026 induction — who truly belongs, who doesn’t, and who gets our vote.
