COOL AND THE GOOD DAD GANG

Written by CHRIS FARAONE Posted June 13, 2019 Filed Under: Interviews, LIFESTYLE, MUSIC, Shop

Being a dad is a weird thing for tough guys. Now it’s getting cooler, it’s opened up, but when I started the brand I don’t feel it was like that.

WHEN THE MOB RAN RAP MUSIC IN BOSTON: TDS MOB WAS THE HUB’S FIRST HUGE HIP-HOP HOPE …

Written by GEORGE HASSETT Posted October 13, 2014 Filed Under: FEATURES, MUSIC, Specials

I interviewed Kool Gee the day after he rocked Wally’s. At his request, we met at the place where the TDS Mob story begins—the stoop of the old Tower Records on the corner of Newbury Street and Mass Ave. From there, he took me back to 1989, when TDS ran the calendar with a year of rap perfection.

THE UNTOLD STORIES OF HUB HIP-HOP

Written by DIG STAFF Posted October 13, 2014 Filed Under: FEATURES, MUSIC, Specials

Like so much history about communities of color, the narrative of Boston hip-hop has been largely buried, ignored, forgotten. Thankfully, there remain innumerable artists, writers, fans, and even academics who, in the storytelling tradition rap music is rooted in, have kept dope alive via marvelous multimedia tributes. This whole package is dedicated to them.
