    In Episode 2 of the Buss It Down Podcast, ItsDC4 and ATM BEZZAL sit down with the multi-talented Paper Pat—a hip-hop artist, engineer, and host based out of San Diego. Paper Pat opens up about his journey into the music industry, sharing how he got his start, the challenges he’s faced, and his experiences organizing local performance shows that spotlight emerging talent.

    This episode takes an inspiring turn as Paper Pat discusses his battle with cancer—not once, but twice—and how it shaped his mantra #StayAlive, a call for people, especially Black men, to prioritize their health and well-being.

    We also dive into the local and national music scenes, reviewing tracks and music videos from D5, Lil Bandman, Lil Baby, and Memphis artist Big Moochie Grape, unpacking their impact and artistry. Paper Pat even treats listeners to a live performance of his hit single, “I’m the Man or What.”

    To top it off, we take a deep dive into the classic movie Set It Off (1996), exploring its cultural significance, themes, and lessons that still resonate today.

    Tune in for a powerful episode filled with music, insight, and raw authenticity.

    Welcome to the debut episode of the Buss It Down Podcast! In this episode, hosts ItsDC4 and ATM BEZZAL sit down with San Diego’s own AJ Beatshop, the head engineer and owner of Beatshop Productions Studios. AJ shares his inspiring journey of transformation—from nearly walking away from music to finding his true calling as an engineer and helping to craft a new sound for the industry.

    We dive into AJ’s thoughts on the shift in mentorship within communities, drawing strong connections to the movie South Central. AJ reflects on how the wisdom of OGs and the presence of strong parental figures played a pivotal role back in the day, and why this element is missing in today’s world.

    The conversation heats up with our review of Tee Grizzley’s music video "Blow for Blow" featuring J. Cole, where we break down the visuals, bars, and overall vibe of this collaboration.

    We also delve into the legendary beef between Kendrick Lamar and Drake, analyzing the pop-out show Kendrick did and how he dominated every angle of the situation. From lyrical shots to strategic moves, Kendrick’s genius shines through, and we explore why his influence remains untouchable.

    This episode is packed with raw insight, deep connections, and moments that will have you thinking differently about music, culture, and the industry. Don’t miss this dynamic conversation as we kick off the Buss It Down Podcast with energy and impact!
