This is Yvie Stokes, and this week I'm so happy to be talking with Staz, Staz the boss, DJ here at K-E-X-B. Hi, Staz. What's that, E-D? So thanks for coming by today. Tell us a little bit about the show that you host on K-E-X-P. I host Street Sounds every other Friday. It's either me or DJ Yadi. And it's's hip hop music, local, global, wherever. And hip hop adjacent music. I like to throw in a little R&B sometimes, you know. I love it. Well, you brought a new song that you're going to share with us today. I'm so excited to hear what you have. Why don't you tell us about it? This is Big League by Remember Face. So, so good.
