PR038 - Native Tongues, Duets, and Tinseltown Swimming In Blood

This week has another random seed in Open Mike Eagle's "95 Radios" which harkens back to a different era of hip-hop. It includes nods to the first track on De La Soul's Buhloone Mind State and A Tribe Called Quest's "The Chase, Part 2."

We have a duets from: Courtney Barnett & Kurt Vile, Alex Cameron & Angel Olson, and Lee Ranaldo & Sharon Van Etten. Soul music from Curtis Harding, Charles Bradley, and a new song from the late, great Sharon Jones.

#GivingTuesday is next week, and we are opening the doors to the BFF.fm studios on Monday to kick off our end of the year fundraising drive. Come see where the magic happens. Here's a link to the Facebook event.

BFF.fm is a non-profit, and we are asking for help to keep the station running. We are hoping that people will consider donating early in the day on Tuesday, so that we can take advantage of matching funds from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
