Episode 263-Do The Math with guest DJ Mathematics

Author: Dad Bod Rap Pod April 6, 2023 Duration: 1:01:54
It's simple mathematics! We all know that Wu-Tang Clan aint nuthin to fuck with but in 2023 its important to note that the Wu-Tang Brand is also unfuckwittable. The "W" logo has become almost ubiquitous, there is a Wu TV show, and, Method Man seems poised to become a full blown acting sex symbol. But all this greatness had to start somewhere right? On this week's episode of Dad Bod Rap Pod your humble hosts David Ma, Nate Le Blanc, and Demone Carter talk to DJ Mathematics, who in addition to producing and DJing for the Clan was also the person who designed the iconic Wu logo. In this interview you will hear the story behind the logos' creation and what Mathematics has learned from his friend and mentor the RZA. During the funky intro, the bros talk about their all-time favorite Wu Tang beats (spoiler alert: there is a good deal of overlap). Listen all the way to the end of the episode to hear what novels the dad bods are currently reading. If you like what you hear please like, rate, review, and subscribe on your platform of choice.

The conversation flows from three distinct but deeply connected perspectives on Dad Bod Rap Pod. Hosted by rapper Demone Carter (DEM ONE), music writer David Ma, and record collector Nate LeBlanc, this podcast digs into the culture with a rare combination of insider knowledge, critical analysis, and archival passion. Their discussions are less about hot takes and more about substantive, respectful dialogue with the artists, producers, and behind-the-scenes figures who have shaped the genre. You'll hear interviews that feel like conversations among peers, often uncovering lesser-known stories and appreciating the craft from multiple angles. As part of the Stony Island Audio network, the show is built on a foundation of genuine fandom and expertise. Listening to this podcast means getting a rounded, thoughtful examination of hip-hop's legacy and its current evolution, all filtered through the experiences of three dedicated enthusiasts who happen to have great chemistry. It’s for anyone who wants to move beyond the surface and into the deeper layers of the music.
