Zach and Steven are joined in this episode by producer and vlogger extraordinaire Sarah, The !llstrumentalist. Based out of North Carolina, her YouTube channel (Sarah2ill) has gained a sizeable following over the past year, and since creating her own version of Mass Appeal’s “Rhythm Roulette” series, she has created a plethora of different videos on her channel, from beat making tutorials to reviews on different equipment. She has also been featured on the 3 Oak Podcast, and has a beat tape coming out later this year.
In this episode, we discuss with Sarah how she got into making beats, some of her biggest musical influences, and the differences between the mainstream and the underground.
You can follow Sarah on her YouTube, Instagram, and Twitter at @Sarah2Ill. Make sure to check out her Soundcloud as well: https://soundcloud.com/sarah2ill

In this episode we hang out with the creator of Rapanalysis.com, the one and only “Rap Maestro” himself: Martin Connor, and get his take on his new book, YouTube series, and his struggles with talking about hip-hop in the ivory tower that is academia.
This is a continuation of the discussion from the first episode, where Zach and Steven brainstorm how they should review albums, other podcast episode ideas, and how Kendrick’s DAMN may or may not be overrated. Also, Zach won’t stop talking about J Dilla, as usual.
