13:45 PMOut to Natassja! "Hey Larry & Troy, Longtime amplifier here! I support KEXP in great part because of all the awesome music I discover listening. A huge example was last year’s 50 years of Hip Hop - I learned so much about one of my favorite genres of music and fell even more in love with De La Soul listening to all the music they inspired. Any chance you can fit in one of your favs from them today? Thanks and appreciate you guys!"Larry Mizell, Jr. - Sep 20, 2024
