A Tribute to Biz Markie (and a little bit of summer break)
Mickey and Dave pay homage to yet another fallen rapper, the great Biz Markie, who died on July 16, 2021. They talk about their favorite Biz songs and his importance to hip-hop history and celebrate their inclusion in the new book "Deep in the Dark with the Art: Conversations With The Creators Behind The Best Cover Art From the Wu-Tang Clan and Their Killa Beez Affiliates", edited by Matteo Urella. All proceeds go to More Than Words, a Boston-based bookstore for at-risk youth.
Mickey and David will be taking the rest of the summer off for some personal projects, quality family time and some much needed R&R. They'll be back in mid-September with a brand new episode of A Guest in the House!
