NWA x Selling Crack
N.W.A’s “Dopeman” Is one of the illest songs ever made because it takes you deep into the drug dealer’s perspective on selling drugs. The crack dealer was evil but we should still seek to understand what drove him and when we look into his soul we find that like the fiends he served, he too was an addict, but he was addicted to power and money. Crack dealers and their culture had a deep influence on hiphop culture and the Black community. In this ep we go into "Dopeman” with The D.O.C. from NWA and talk to several former drug dealers about how dealers changed the world around them. Guests: Nelson George, Filmmaker Royce Da 5’9, Rapper Biba Adams, Writer The D.O.C., Rapper Samson Styles, Journalist and Filmmaker Kevin Chiles, CEO Don Diva Magazine Jim Jones, Rapper Credits: NWA - Dope Man Writer: Ice Cube, Dr. Dre, Sugarfoot, Junie Morrison, Marshall “Rock” Jones, Greg Webster, Ralph Middlebrooks, Marvin Pierce, Norman Napier & Andrew Noland Label: Ruthless Records Publisher: Ruthless Attack Muzick & Bridgeport Music NWA - Fuck Tha Police Writer: The D.O.C., Ice Cube & MC Ren Label: Universal Music Group, Ruthless Records & Priority Records Publisher: Universal Music Group Notorius BIG - The Ten Crack Commandments Writer: The Notorious B.I.G. & DJ Premier Label: Bad Boy Entertainment Publisher: B.I.G.
