Double Elvis.

If you feel like modern music culture doesn't reflect what you care about, then you're not alone.

Disgraceland listeners realize that Kazam, a corporate algorithmic studio storytelling machine,

keeps trying to sanitize music history, stripping out the true crime.

Disgraceland exists to take these stories back, and now you can wear that rebellion by sporting

some of our new merch. Long and short sleeve, just say no to Kazm T-shirts, Disgraceland

hoodies, and our zombie Elvis Johnny Paycheck-approved black trucker hat. Our merch, like our

content, is built for the musically obsessed. The self-proclaimed discos who know that real

music history is dangerous and far cooler than whatever the hell mainstream music culture

is serving us up right now. This merch is way cool. I would wear every item in the shop. It's an

exclusive and limited run. It's only available until September 30th, so order yours now at shop

disgraceland.com. Discreeland is a production of Double Elvis.

The stories about Curtis 50-cent Jackson are insane.

He was a crack dealer before he hit puberty.

He was convicted of possessing crack, heroin, and guns just after his 19th birthday.

And at 25, he was shot nine times in the legs, hands, and face, and survived.

He survived because Curtis Jackson had a mantra that kept him going, that took all the fucked up fuel of his circumstances and propelled him to rise above. Get rich or die trying. And he would get rich, but not from dealing

drugs, from making great music. Music that topped the charts, defined 2000s hip-hop,

and spoke bluntly about American street life.

Unlike that loop, I played for you at the top of the show,

that wasn't great music.

That was a preset loop from my Melotron
