Show notes

Show Notes:

In the 5th episode of the Hella Years Podcast, my friend Hunter G stops by to talk Kanye West and Mental Health. We also discuss Kanye's 3rd album, Graduation, and pick our Top 5 Kanye Songs. The homie Mainetain of New Skool Enk spits a verse and we tease what's coming for Episode 6. Finally, I'm so excited to share that in the beginning of the episode I play a full song that my son recently made. He has been making the beats I have been using on the podcast, but even doper than that are the songs that he writes and records. The song is called Dimmed Stars, we hope you like it.
