Hot Tub Johnnie kicked the party off with "Can't You See" a new LA blues rock cut from next week's HPR guest The Downtown Train. He kept the hot tub bubbling with tracks from The Stone Foxes, Frank Ocean, Bob Marley, G-Eazy and many more.
Our first guest Phil Gallo (Billboard) made his second appearance on the show and handpicked a working mans set for the Labor Day celebration. Some standouts from the Phil's set were Ry Cooder's "No Banker Left Behind", Harry Nilsson "Good Old Desk" and The Del Lords' "How Can A Poor Man Stand Such times and Live".
Our musical guests of the night were hip hop artists Kosha Dillz and E-Train. Both artists stormed through high energy, aggressive performances…including Kosha Dillz' "Span-Hebrish (Ech Ani Olech)" and E-Trains vicious vocal attack on "Wreck The Disco Tech". Keep your eyes and ears peeled open to catch when and where these two upcoming artists will be playing.
Closing out the night was DJ Boom Shack who featured a full set of hand selected music and signature cuts from Fembot "I Should Just", Killa Kyleon (feat. Mac Miller) "Come On Baby" and Sak Noels' fantastic new party single "Loca People".
The 220th Hunnypot Radio Sing - A - Long was "Summer Of '69" by Bryan Adams.
