MICK BOOGIE x SHADE 45: PRESS PLAY

Mick Boogie just sent this my way so I'm posting it. Mick has been putting out mixtapes for years but lately has been showcasing some of the new sub-genres of hip hop, which in turn has given great pub to local acts such as UNI & Pacific Division. Because of that idea to highlight what Los Angeles' new hip hop scene is offering, it's only right to give Mick some pub back. Below is a description of what Mick's new show will be about:
The Press Play Show...Mick Boogie & Terry Urban on Shade45...

Sirius XM Radio today announced the addition of a new hip-hop based show on one of their most popular channels… Eminem’s Shade 45 featuring tastemaker deejays Mick Boogie and Terry Urban.
The new show, entitled “The Press Play Show,” will air every Saturday night from 8pm – 10pm EST and focus on the new and trendsetting genres of hip-hop that have become popular over the last few years.
“Hip-hop has changed and evolved over the last few years…with several new sounds and ideologies becoming popular in both the underground and mainstream,” says Mick Boogie. “From the underground “hipster” scene to the new mashup and electro-based sounds… the hip-hop generation is going through a creative renaissance and we are excited to bring a show to Shade 45 catering to that tastemaking crowd. “
“Together with our blog, ThePressPlayShow.com, this show will bridge all aspects of hiphop and its affiliated subcultures, including streetwear, sneakers, and more,” says Terry Urban.
The Press Play Show debuts Saturday, January 17th on Shade 45… and the newly relaunched blog/website is viewable at ThePressPlayShow.com

I think we can expect to hear some of our favorite local talents on the air at Shade 45, that's a good look. Props to Mick Boogie.
