Yanadameen Godcast with Lord Jamar & Rah Digga
Published on Apr 17, 2018
Keeping with the ethos of the Godcast, in this episode, Lord Jamar and Rah Digga drop some hard-hitting truths as they speak about how the industry has changed from the early era when powerful figures such as Chuck D and KRS-1 were at the forefront of hiphop and delivered a message, to the current emasculated era which stands for nothing. Rah Digga also discusses the certification criteria that apply for current artists which make it much easier to get gold/platinum certified albums.
