Peace and Blessings!

First & foremost I want to thank everyone who was hitting me up today saying how much they were looking forward to tonights show. It's an overwhelming & humbling feeling indeed! To all of my faithful listeners that hold me down every Tuesday I apologize for Vinyl Vybz not airing tonight. One of the few disadvantages of my radio station home being close to 4000 miles away is that I have NO control over situations like this. I'm confident that this show will air next Tuesday at it's normal slot. HOWEVER, I was very disappointed that my Gil Scott-Heron tribute didn't air tonight. Since the show was previously recorded and ready to go I see no reason in making my fam wait until NEXT week to hear it soooooo....HERE YOU GO!!!

Welcome to a special edition of Vinyl Vybz with DJ HasH where I paid tribute to musical icon Gil Scott-Heron. This show is bittersweet, due to the fact that Gil Scott-Heron has passed away. But I wanted to take a moment to celebrate his work that’s influenced a massive amount of people for over 4 decades! I felt it’s my duty as a DJ to deliver a show paying homage to this legendary Soul, Jazz, & Spoken Word artist by playing some his finest work. While at the same time cookin up a DOPE show that you’ve come to expect every week on Vinyl Vybz.

I began the show with a Roots melody featuring some songs that I could envision Gil Scott-Heron collaborating on. Either through his spoken word or distinct singing voice. Then I played new music from the likes of Muhsinah, Skyzoo, Eric Roberson, DiViNe SeVeN, Elzhi & MORE. Not to mention an “Old to the New” featuring Da Youngsta’s and Das Efx rockin over the same sample.

The last hour is dedicated to Gil Scott-Heron! His body of work is MASSIVE so I picked a few of my personal favorites to play, along with the Hip Hop records that sampled from it. DOPENESS! So if you didn't want to wait until this show airs next Tuesday on www.playvybz.com, I GOT YOU! I invite you to still check me out next Tuesday and EVERY Tuesday from 6-8pm CST on www.playvybz.com. And feel free to share this podcast!!! Thank you EVERYONE for all of your love and support when it comes to Vinyl Vybz with DJ HasH! It means more than you know! TRUST.

Bless
