The Planet, along with Chicago’s own Square-One of B-Side Radio, have joined forces to bring you the week in review in Hip-Hop and current events, along with the occasional special guest and some music to keep you moving through your day.
We take a look at the whirlwind that is Charlie Sheen and all the things that have happened to him since his flameout. Is Charlie being sly or is he really in as much trouble as it looks? Is the attention helping his stock rise or is it just people waiting for the train wreck’s fiery end?
What exactly went down with Lupe Fiasco’s album? The leak met with harsh critical acclaim. What was Lupe or his label thinking? If the label made him do it, is he responsible for the end result? How do you promote an album that you hate? Is Lupe Fiasco building himself up to be bigger than he actually is? Was the whole dustup with Atlantic Records a hoax?
Pharoahe Monch’s album W.A.R. (We Are Renegades) is coming soon. We were privy to a preview of the album and we give you an idea of what you can look forward to. We also take a little time to laugh at the ridiculous Tweets of Lebron James and how his pronouncements amounted to a Spurian ass whuppin’ (show was recorded before the Chicago meltdown yesterday). All this and more on this week’s edition of IllSide Radio.
