Summary

 

Huddle up, y’all. We’ve recently realized that the whole world has been using the word ‘epic’ way too loosely. We realized this after attending the party that seemed to never stop over this past weekend. We know you heard about it. You were probably at the bar with us! DJ D-Nice, founding member of Boogie Down Productions, and beloved turntablist all over the world, hosted a virtual party so EPIC that it brought us all together in a way that only good music and a GREAT DJ can do. So, of course we had to talk to the music man himself and get the scoop on how it all started. He’s so humble! And this convo - along with the way he brought us together in a time of international crisis - is solidified as an official Yes, Girl! Favorite. We hope you enjoy as much as we did. Use #YesGirlPodcast to let us know if you came to the party and what part you loved most!
