Summary

This week on A Waste of Time with ItsTheReal, we welcome the host of Hot 97's Ebro in the Morning, Ebro Darden! Fresh off organizing his 13th Summer Jam concert, we spoke in great detail about what went into the decision to postpone the start of the show, why certain artists didn't perform, and what this annual event means to New York, to competing festivals, and to the fans. We also spoke about Ebro's journey from Bay Area high school athlete, to his heavy involvement in Northern California hip-hop, to working on the same radio station as Rasheed Wallace, to making the cross-country journey to the most-storied hip-hop station in the world: New York's Hot 97. Plus, his experiences with Kanye West, Janet Jackson, Lyor Cohen, Angie Martinez, Big Boy, and so much more! In addition, we sat down with our friend and photographer Ravie B to talk photoshopping laminates to sneak into Summer Jam, eating at Benihana's, obsessively watching The Office, playing video games about cooking, an lots more!
