TSC30: anticon. Records w/ Alex Volz (Every Album Ever Podcast)

anticon. were called a lot of things in their heyday. "Avant Garde Hip Hop". "Nerd Rap". "Emo Rap". "Not hip hop". "The hip hop equivalent of post-rock" (really). Regardless, the sprawling collective of eccentric wonderkids that called themselves anticon. remained uncompromising throughout the crew's legendary artistic run from 1998 - 2014.

Fellow anticon. comrade, Alex Volz, of the excellent Every Album Ever Podcast joins me as we make our case for the criminally slept-on anticon. discography. We swap early exposure stories, get to know the label’s founding fathers, and marvel at the sheer weirdness and creativity they brought to hip hop, experimental pop, beat tapes, and electronic music. You better believe that anticon. walked so that today’s crop of weirdo rappers could run. 

Rest in Power to Alias. anticon. forever.
