Bronx native Neil deGrasse Tyson explains why Hip Hop is the soul of a generation. 🎤🧠

Interviewing this astrophysicist, author, and science communicator on my radio show was a special moment. But then I hit him with a name so deep and specific that I actually spooked Neil deGrasse Tyson out 😂

Guy named D-Stroy rebuilding Hip Hop radio, one show at a time. You never know where the conversation is going to go. From cops running up on him in the BX, his Latina mother to Hip Hop culture. I have so much in the chamber, I don't know what I'm going to ask, but it's gonna be interesting.

Come rock with us. You’ll laugh, learn something and nod your head to bangers in the process. 🎙️

Growing up on hip hop, one lyric shaped how I saw music history: The line in Fight the Power calling Elvis Presley a racist. 🤔🎤

So I asked legendary songwriter, Memphis legend David Porter—the man behind countless soul classics and someone who knew him, one simple question:

"Was Elvis racist?"

Porter's answer might surprise you.

He explains why Elvis Presley deeply respected Black artists, where he drew his musical influence from, and why he believes history is far more complicated than a single lyric.

Frank Miller explains why hip-hop and comic books have always been connected. 🎤📚

Before creating The Dark Knight Returns, Sin City, and redefining comics forever, Frank Miller understood something fans have known for decades:

"At the heart of it, both forms are outlaw... both are under the radar, hitting people in ways they don't expect and taking them places that aren't always approved."

On Ctrl-Alt D-Stroy, we talked about the shared DNA between hip-hop culture, graffiti, breakdancing, and comic books—and why both movements were built by outsiders who changed pop culture forever.

If you've ever wondered why so many rappers reference superheroes, manga, and comic books... this conversation is the answer.
