Episode 7 - Crystal Leww (Swoon Step podcast/ Something For The Ladies / The Singles Jukebox)
Juicy Liu in the house! Crystal Leww and I talk about East Asian representation and feminism in hip-hop, blackface abroad, why Taylor Swift is pop-punk and how Mike Shinoda is more real hip-hop than you think. Her #LATEPASS is pop-punk, which gives me a chance to flex my theory that Blink-182 = The Velvet Underground. For this week's audio essay, I talk about my favourite band of all time, Glassjaw, and their problematic debut album. 11:24 - Crystal Leww interview 61:09 - My #LATEPASS: Glassjaw's Problematic Debut Album SWOON STEP PODCAST: soundcloud.com/swoon_step TWITTER: @crystalleww TUMBLR: crystalleww.tumblr.com SOMETHING FOR THE LADIES: sftlmusic.com THE SINGLES JUKEBOX: thesinglesjukebox.com #LATEPASS tracks played: Chief Keef - No Reba McIntire - Somebody Should Leave Awkwafina - Queef Jin feat.
