    My favorite podcast
    I discovered you just when the diagnosis came through. I feel so blessed to have found your show. The RUN DMC episode was my favorite. It took me back to hip hop’s rise and how important it was to be fresh to death. Lol. I listen to the episodes again and again. There’s nothing like this on the air anyone. You will be missed and celebrated forever. We, the internets, miss you Combat Jack

    The Mogul Episode is Sooooo Dope!
    I went to Hampton with Ed Woods and James McMillan and to hear them on here makes me proud. I had never listened to ANY podcast until after I started my own in Oct 2108. But everyone started telling me how I was filling the void of Combat Jack. I now know how much of an honor it is to be mentioned in the same breath. The production value, information and interview clips of this episode is phenomenal! Outstanding job! Rob G. The General @TheCutCurator Podcast

    We love combat REST IN POWER!
    Come on Bruh (PLEASE IM BEGGING YOU) DON’T LET THIS ARCHIVE GO AWAY! I know you guys are making a concentrated effort to do something new and introducing a new show on this platform was cool. But your four episodes in which means eventually if continued the combat jack archive is goin to deleted. As a fan since 2013 i enjoy going back and listening to interviews and find ones i missed. i hope that one of you guys (A king or Chris ) see this n just give the new show its own outlet completely. The internets need the combat jack show cuz all we got is us ✊🏿

    Rest In Peace Combat
    This was an amazing podcast. Been listening for years and am incredibly saddened by the passing of Combat Jack. If you love hip hop, check out the back catalog of great interviews you won’t regret it. RIP COMBAT

    RIP Combat Jack
    This is one of the few times I’m devastated by someone who is in the business dying. Combat was the definition of an evolved human being. He took a Zen like approach to everything, even when he was diagnosed with colon cancer. I am not giving this show five stars because of Combats untimely death, it deserves five stars because the content has always been solid. Even with guests I didn’t like, Combat always found a way to be engaging enough to break through the monotony that interviews sometimes bring. This is like the hip-hop version of Marc Maron’s “WTF” podcast. Dude is going to be missed and so is this show, because I can’t conceive of the rest of the crew continuing without him.

    Forever a 5 Star Show
    Can’t believe it’s taken me so long to write this review. If you don’t listen to anything else LISTEN TO THIS PODCAST. Endless laughs and much wisdom can be gained from listening. RIP Combat Jack There will never be another.

    The Oral-History of Hip Hop
    I finally figured this podcast out. Combat Jack is an amazing interviewer. He could easily be a social scientist (he is one) with is interview technique. He probes the interviewer to provide insight into their life, happenstance, risk-taking, and whether our not they saw the success (or sometimes lack of recognition) in the lore if the Hip Hop world. I grew up with KDAY in LA. I was too young to go clubbin' but heard The World Class Wreckin Cru, Run DMC, UTFO, etc... but I have gaps in my hip hop knowledge. At some point I got bored with hip hop... but there was always a sweet spot for GOOD hip hop (with a west coast bias). I found my niche in indie hop hop... still hip hop kept evolving. I am going back and catching up with this podcast. YOU HAVE HUMANIZED HIP HOP ARTISTS!! They have real-life stories, families, challenges, and successes. They philosophize, pay wisdom forward... you get to the meaning behind the glitter and really make us enjoy the artist as a person. Don't let this living document of a podcast stop... keep up the amazing good work of documenting hip hop culture.

    Great show and fantastic interviewer
    I really enjoy the content of this show, I've learned a lot about hip hop from this podcast and I think combat jack Is a fantastic interviewer. Although I do wish sometimes he was not so hype and talkative when interrrupting guest from finishing their response it can be annoying at times.
  • Zerozum
    The best
    I've been reading the blog, ear hustling & watching for years! So it's only right that I show some love officially. Love what ya'll do! Peace, Love & Unity!
  • Slick Vic The Ruler
    Great show
    The G Herbo show was great! Every young and old head should hear it. The growth he showed just from the time he was on Taxstone podcast makes me feel hopeful for our youth. Good job Jack and stay blessed G Herbo.

    Peace and blessings Combat Jack and staff. I’m a fan of your podcast every since I listened to the John Forte episode which I found to be amazing. I appreciate your willingness to sometimes submit yourself to the guess and often just let them talk while before getting off track. I just listened to a funk flex interview of Don Diva CEO Kevin Chiles and the whole time I’m listening I’m wishing that it was you interviewing this man. It would be of great service to your listeners to interview this man, especially to those like myself, who are young and black and come from a certain culture. We need more of these stories from individuals who come from our culture and made a change to something more positive. May the creator continue to stay with you

  • Milly_Rox
    ONE OF THE BEST PODCASTS PEROID!
    Although the episodes surround some of the best in hip hop music and culture, it is not just about the music; just the sheer wisdom about life and rich experiences that is shared on these episodes from some of the very best sets this podcast apart from all others.
  • Jim in Yelm
    Great podcast
    Terrific podcast that's guarenteed to make you think...about art, about race, about American culture in general. So glad I stumbled onto this after listening to Mogul. This podcast should be required listening for all social studies classes in this country. 5 stars, "dream those dreams"
  • goDJ
    Down since 2011
    Been listening to the Combat Jack show since 2011. Not to lament the old days, but the DJ Ben Hameen mixes, the irreverent commentary of Dallas Penn and Pete...if not for copyright b.s. the archives would be so much deeper. Combat is a great interviewer and there's a lot to appreciate with the curation of guest. #raisethebar
