RKM Legend on being DJ Screw cousin and says Slowed & Reverb phenomenon is disrepectful

The crew opens this episode sitting down with an RKM legend who breaks down his direct connection to the late, great DJ Screw—one of Houston's most influential figures in hip-hop history. He shares personal stories about family ties, growing up around the culture that birthed chopped and screwed music, and what it really meant to be in those sessions. But here's where it gets real: he comes hard on the slowed and reverb wave that's taken over streaming platforms and TikTok, calling it straight disrespectful to Screw's legacy. The conversation digs into how the sound got commodified, watered down, and turned into a trend that lost the soul of what Screw was actually doing in those underground Houston studios. It's a raw take on cultural appropriation within hip-hop itself—how something sacred gets turned into content. The guys debate whether new artists are building on the foundation or just clout-chasing off a legend's name, and what real respect for DJ Screw's memory actually looks like in 2024.
