Nasa reacts to an article on the Daily Swarm website featuring a writer from SPIN Magazine.  They discussed the "Fall" of Left Field rap music during the period of 2004-2008.  He talks about his experience going through that era and places blame on the writers and radio stations themselves, not the people.  This episode is a big "fuck you" to all the sleepers during that period and all the so called writers that are crawling back.  One long set this time, it's all prog, all the time and is made up of artists that have been around for a decade, came up during that dark period and some new faces.  Here's the playlist, complete with links this time:
