This is the latest episode of the syndicated FuseBox Radio Broadcast with DJ Fusion & Jon Judah for the week of March 24, 2010 with some new and classic Hip-Hop & Soul Music, news and commentary.

This week's commentary this week focused on a range of things, touching base on topics such as the recent passing of the U.S. Health Care Reform Bill and it's pre- and post-fallout on both the political and societal ends (especially in regards to race), the Texas School Board's trying to change the textbooks to cover more "conservative values" (including things such as minimizing mentioning the effects of institutional racism, capitalism, etc. in the country and the world, talking about creationism and so forth) along with some other things here and there.

During this week's show, we had a great interview with one of the independent Hip-Hop's young MCs on the rise, New York City's own Ques (http://www.QuesFire.com & http://www.twitter.com/QuesFire).

Some of the topics we've touched base during the interview included Ques' musical & environmental influences, his Haitian heritage, his long history in the music industry in the independent & mainstream music arenas, what inspires him creatively to make music, his latest project with the Rap2k10 album, viewpoints about the current state of NYC & East Coast Hip-Hop and lack of balance of music the mainstream audience gets exposed to, future plans and lots more!

The Co-Op Mixtape (Brought To You By FuseBox Radio)



What's up to our BlackRadioIsBack.com, FuseBox Radio Broadcast and Trunk Hustlers family!

I just wanted to share the latest FuseBox Radio family mixtape to everyone...

The Co-Op Mixtape (Brought To You By FuseBox Radio) features some great independent Hip-Hop & Soul Music from the DMV's own (DC/Maryland/Virigina) The Co-Op (consisting of members Decon, Dee Daye and Frankie D).



Here's some information about each of the members of The Co-Op below to get some background on the group & it's foundation as well as the The Co-Op Mixtape (Brought To You By FuseBox Radio) available for FREE download.

Please let us know what you think of the project and if you like it, definitely go out and support The Co-Op's past & future projects - they are definitely on the rise!
Decon:

If you are tired of the same old gimmicky hip-hop, Listening to the lyrics of Decon will be a breath of fresh air. The majority of artists out today use music (beats) to bring out the lyrics, but Decon on the other hand uses his lyrics to bring out the beats.

It is almost like he creates the music around the lyrics so that it blends to perfection. Which is very impressive because most MC's use beats to camouflage their babbling lyrics.

Decon explores a wide range of topics that almost every listener can relate to in some way or another. Once given the opportunity, Decon will take the world back to the purest form of raw underground hip-hop.

Decon grew up in south side Jamaica Queens and slowly made his journey down to Maryland where he currently resides. He has been living and doing hip-hop since the age of eleven.

Growing up Decon was influenced by many artists such as Krs-One, Big Daddy Kane, Slick Rick, EPMD, Run-DMC and many more. Decon makes up 1/3 of the hip hop, R&B group called The Co-Op.

Dee Daye:

Born in Jamaica, Queens, New York, and raised in PG County, Maryland, Dee Daye is the first voice you hear on the Co-Op’s signature ode to the ladies, “Girl”.

Having lived a life filled with misfortune, turmoil, and petty crimes, Dee Daye is recognized as the element of The Co-Op that more or less gives the group its street cred.

His rhymes more or less relate to the average dude trying to make moves, stories of life’s ups and downs, as well as relationships from the hood’s perspective.

Dee Daye is a well-rounded MC, who has the innate ability to flow on any number of subjects, not necessarily limiting himself to any particular style or subject matter.

Dee Daye has also produced many of The Co-Op’s songs, including the group’s DC anthem, “D-dot, C-dot”, as well as the ‘uber-sexy’, “Naked”.

http://ww.myspace.com/DeeDaye


Frankie D.:

Frankie D is the voice that’s heard on the chorus of the song, “Girl”, The Co-Op’s “grown and sexy” hip-hop ode to ladies everywhere.

Also known as “The R&B Component”, Frankie D possesses a vocal style that has often been compared to the likes of the late, great Teddy Pendergrass, as well as that of the late Gerald LeVert.

While Frankie D bristles at the notion of even being mentioned in the same breath as those great artists, it is his deep, mature vocal style that enables him to stand-out among many of today’s male R&B vocalists.

It’s Frankie D’s smooth vocals, as well as his penchant for “pillow talk” on the track that serve as the icing on the cake of most of The Co-Op’s music.

There are brand new episodes of the Black Agenda Report and Direct EFX segments included in this week's broadcast.
