Before the world knew him as Blair Underwood, he made his screen debut in Krush Groove. 🎬🔥

This week on Ctrl-Alt D-Stroy, I sit down with Blair Underwood for a conversation that goes WAY beyond the roles you know him for.

We talked about his first role in LA Law, his family history and the discovery that his ancestors owned enslaved people, his journey from an Army family to Hollywood, and stories he rarely gets asked about.

This is one of those conversations where you think you know the person… until you hear the story behind the story.

Watch the full interview on the SiriusXM app and YouTube.com/iDstroy.

Busta Rhymes reunites with a childhood friend and fellow hip hop legend During his interview opens up about how seeing someone from his own neighborhood make it in hip hop inspired him to become an MC himself.

From Brooklyn school days to global stages, this is a powerful piece of hip hop history—and a story about inspiration, community and representation.

Plus, they finally clear up the ONE HANDED mystery behind that iconic "Youngest in Charge" album cover.

What’s your favorite J Dilla beat? 🎤

Before became a hip-hop icon, he attended P.S. 181, worked as a stock boy at Cheap John’s, and performed with his first group, Destiny 3 M.C.’s—before Chuck D renamed them Leaders of the New School.

Then came a life-changing moment: at 192 Linden Boulevard in Queens, where Q-Tip (A Tribe Called Quest) lived, a cassette tape was handed over that helped spark an unforgettable journey.

From the legacy of J Dilla to timeless beats and lifelong brotherhood, this is hip-hop history told by those who lived it. 🔥

The story behind one of Hip Hop’s most legendary unreleased collaborations. 🎤🔥

J Dilla’s “The Ugliest” was originally set to feature Nas, Method Man & The Notorious B.I.G. Nas and Method Man waited through multiple sessions, but left before Biggie arrived. Then Biggie stepped into the booth and delivered his verse in ONE TAKE. Only for the lyrics to put the record directly in the middle of the East Coast/West Coast rap war.

When you sit down with the artists who made you believe you could be passionate about this Hip Hop thing of ours, you gotta bring that undeniable energy to the interview—the kind of energy the Dragon deserves.

That’s always the goal: go beyond the usual questions and dig deeper into the stories, memories, and moments that shaped the culture.

Tune in to Shade45 as Busta Rhymes and I get into the new Dillagence II album from Busta Rhymes & J Dilla, featuring D’Angelo, Lil Wayne & more—OUT NOW! 🔥

Classic memories, real stories, and Hip Hop history, all in front of a LIVE studio audience at SiriusXM.

There are certain songs that take you BACK. 🎤🔥

Rapsody came through and I put her to the test on her favorite song: “You’re All I Need” by Method Man & Mary J. Blige. SHE COOKED. 🔥

Her new album "GOD'S GOTTA AFRO AND GOLD HOOPS" is out now. The interview was mad fun, and this is exactly what I want Ctrl-Alt D-Stroy to be about: bringing the FUN and EXCITEMENT back to Hip Hop.

There’s enough negativity, outrage and arguing in Hip Hop media. Lets celebrate the culture, the artists, the music and remind people WHY WE FELL IN LOVE WITH HIP HOP in the first place.

Peace. Love. Unity. Having Fun. That’s the energy. if you rock with it, throw it in your stories.

What was the FIRST cassette you remember playing on your boombox?

Two speakers, a stack of cassettes, fresh batteries, and your favorite hip-hop blasting loud enough for the whole block to hear. The boombox was how we carried the culture.

From 90s hip hop and rap cassettes to recording songs off the radio, making mixtapes, and bringing the soundtrack to the park—this was a whole era.
