Listen "CAL-A of Free Bread Intl."
Episode Synopsis
CAL-A is a Grammy Award-winning producer, artist manager, and DJ from the Bay Area who owns and operates Free Bread Intl., a company helping brands and businesses create experiences to benefit their communities and the kids in them. He breaks down his contribution to Killer Mike's album 'Michael' which received three Grammy's including Rap Album of The Year. We get into South by Southwest's fall from grace and its potential resurgence, his recent trip to the Phillipines with P-Lo, his penchant for vacation flexing, and the 2022 documentary 'We Were Hyphy.' He explains the impact the Bay Area's countercultural mentality had on rap in the city (and the country), and how copping both the G-Unit sneakers and the S. Carters exemplify his unwaivering loyalty to the game. We also talk about Free Bread's recent collab with Rodericks Barbecue in Oakland and his latest top 5 songs of the moment including tracks by SPIRITSAVER, Zach Frenes, Bast, Wyatt Woodley and Swank Mami.
