Embark on a sonic odyssey through Newark's seminal hip-hop landscape with the iconic Lakim Shabazz, a masterful DJ and emcee whose music pulses with the teachings of the 5% Nation and the power of supreme mathematics. We weave through tales of the vibrant '80s, where the beats of Newark streets were as palpable as the social currents that fueled them. Lakim opens up about his influences from African culture to influential figures like Farrakhan, imparting how these forces propelled his journey from the turntables to the mic, and from the classroom to a record contract.

This session isn't just an exploration of rhythms and rhymes; it's a deep reflection on the importance of mentorship and cultural connection. Through stories of the Five Percenters' lively New Jersey scene to the significance of nurturing our youth, we confront the waning engagement in community spaces. Lakim takes us back to his days of rallying and teaching with compassion, highlighting the critical role of bringing younger generations into the fold to sustain the heart of our nation and culture.

As we celebrate the legacy of hip-hop giants like the 45 King and dive into the industry's intricacies, from eye-opening record deals to the creative fire behind album art, La Kim doesn't shy away from the challenges faced by artists on the rise. He also spotlights the strength drawn from community work and the eternal quest for knowledge, wisdom, and understanding. Closing on a note of accountability, the conversation calls upon us to embrace our roles as builders of a resilient, inclusive future, one where every voice contributes to the symphony of our collective growth.
