In episode 30 of the Not So Fresh Podcast we have guests in studio visiting from Japan. Bboy Flash aka Ryan Babers Art and Bboy Jed are both from Epic Styles Crew and came up in the bboy scene in San Diego along Saso, Destijl and the rest of the scene. Some of the issues we discussed are:
• How they came up with the name for Epic Styles
• How Flash has been in Japan for the past few years teaching English.
• If these single Japanese moms have hit on Flash while he is a teacher.
• Dealing with bad kids in his classroom and what he has done to make his stay in Japan a memorable one.
• We go over a few memories from 2017 as well as past memories with Epic Styles Crew from past jams.
• Black Thought's epic freestyle and how he claims to have invented Mumble Rap
• We go over an upcoming jam on 1/7 in San Diego called, "Fatal Sting".
• Why companies have made realistic masks of black men's faces and why white men are using them to commit crimes.
• The Apple iPhone drama where they admitted to slowing down older model iPhones to make their loyal customers buy the newest iPhone after its release.
• We talk about the "War on Men".
• We ask Flash about facing some racism in Japan.
• We discuss the position of gay bboys, why would it be hard for a bboy to come out and discuss their sexual preference? Is it hard for a member of the hip hop community to discuss this? We go over Mike Logik getting hit on by gay men in Hillcrest and how gay jokes go over with gay guys. Does the hip hop community look down on homosexuality and why?
• Who is.... Chris Dynamite? Find out more about this mythical figure that would cause such a commotion with RSF and Epic Styles.
• As usual we go off on different tangents and end with what music we have been listening to since the last Not So Fresh Podcast.
