The Open Run With Will Strickland
Episode 107 – Life Calculus
For those who don’t know, some of Wall $t.’s friends call him “Hands” because they know they can count on him.
This episode is no different as the goods are delivered on basketball, hip hop culture and 30 years of memories with a dear friend, Steve Rifkind, CEO and founder of one of the greatest boutique rap labels in music history, Loud Records.
With artists from Mobb Deep, Big Pun and M.O.P. to Tha Alkaholiks, Twista and of course WuTang Clan, the stories are legendary!
Strap In!
We do the math on being Products of a Youth Possibly Misspent and making the most of it while surviving pitfalls, learning, losing and loving along the way.
The “mid” New York Knickerbockers are discussed, as well as the New York Nets (Remember The ABA), bullying Kyrie, the hip hop dunk contest few knew about between Method Man and Wall $t and the rest of the News, Views and Truths that you choose on the NBA and beyond.
REFERENCES MADE: Tung Twista, Brian McKnight, The Gavin, Spring Records, King Tim III, New Edition to New Jack City, digital audio tape, Nike rap, Rotund Joseph, mental health, getting “sonned”, Brandon Boston Jr., Nassau Coliseum, Oatmeal Man, The World’s Most Unique Basketball Tournament and more, all on the podcast where Basketball and Life are One: The Open Run With Will Strickland!
