In following in the success of the Real Late podcasts, we’ve decided to start dropping off a new episode of Funkadelic Freestyles – the unique college radio show based in DC – once a week here at Rappers I Know. Still feeling lost? The Funkadelic Freestyles crew collaborated with FWMJ for two successful (and original) mixtapes last summer – Vol I: The Offseason & Vol II: Back in the Game. Visit them on Twitter for further clarification (or confusion): Jamie Benson (aka jben.ok), Jay Promo, King Carter, Unkle Scooty, & DJ Jerome Baker III.

This week: An interview with DJ Alizay (Washington, DC), one of the most prolific turntablists in the nation’s capitol. Having recently made the decision to move on from commercial radio, ‘Zay clears up rumors about the DMV music scene and previews his new solo album.

Also: The return of King Carter, a brief discussion about the 2010 Grammys, and a special phone call from 368 Music Group’s Dre The Mayor.

Music from: Three powerful live mixes from DJ Alizay featuring Heltah Skeltah, Big L, Jay Electronica, Nas, Notorious B.I.G., Diamond District, K-BETA, Kingpen Slim, and many more.
