Max Bell is on a liquid diet You probably weren’t checking for Danny Brown in July of 2008. (I wasn’t.) Sure, you might’ve if you live in Detroit or had friends who attended The Shelter regularly.

| Shots Fired, Episode 64: Fuck Time featuring House Shoes & Quelle Chris | February 27, 2014 |
Despite the world’s most boring introduction thanks to me not having coffee prior to the show (as Remedy said: Never Again), there is a new Shots Fired. Our quests were House Shoes and Quelle Chris, who are pretty much the best podcast guests in the domain of podcastdom. Naturally, the show quickly got bizarre. Pro […]
| House Shoes: The King James Version Volume 2 – The New Testament (Dilla Tribute Mix) | February 11, 2014 |
The Dilla deification can get a little over-the-top, so it takes something singular to get me to add more tinder to the fire. But the unflappable House Shoes (who I recently profiled for LA Weekly) comes up clutch once again with Volume 2 of his King James Mix Series. The latest edition blends the original […]

| Shots Fired Episode 5: White Rappers | November 23, 2012 |
Because on Black Friday, there’s nothing less appropriate than a podcast devoted to white rappers. The Earwolf description is below because I can’t remember a word that I said: “Detroit DJ/producer House Shoes and LA rapper Busdriver join Nocando & Jeff Weiss this week to discuss white rappers. The guys talk about the origins of […]
| You Watching Like the Other Four Lakers on the Court: Danny Brown & House Shoes’ ‘Sweet’ | September 4, 2012 |
Danny Brown subtly breaking down the potential for problems between Kobe and Dwight Howard.
