Rip to Craig Mack. The Salieri to Biggie's Mozart if they ever make an Amadeus-style movie about 90s NYC hip hop.
RIP Craig Mack. His debut album Project Funk Da World was one of the first CD’s I ever purchased. Such a great voice and style & ‘Flavor In Your Ear’ is one of the best remixes of all time. He will be missed.

How would they be able to fit in an ad for squarespace and Casper in that time?
Has anyone experimented with short form podcasts? Like 5-10 minutes?
Seems like the trend is to get progressively longer - higher volume of podcasts but more targeted and short form would be interesting
