Celebrating 25 Years w/ Special Guests (Part 1)

Author: Crazy Hood Productions April 26, 2018 Duration: 1:55:23

In today’s episode we talk to our extended Crazy Hood family.  You’ll hear stories from Ras Kass, Big Teach & Wrekonize. You’ll hear Monie Love speak about her first recording session with DJ EFN and stories from Capone when he came home and Crazy Hood accepted him with open arms.  

We’ll spend some time reflecting on the past but showing love and admiration to the Hoods with stories from Phil The Mayor & Skam2?.  We’ll also share moments with Hazardis Soundz & Deejay KNS and stories from David Banner and a familiar name you’ve heard quite often on Family TiesNick Fury

All of these stories were shared from a place of love & support of Crazy Hood Productions. Over the past 25 years our goal was to represent hip hop in it’s truest form and while doing so we’ve built friendships that will last a life time.  

Our first conversation starts with an artist you might know from the group ¡MAYDAY!, he’s a close friend of ours, here’s my conversation with Wrekonize

Always authentic, always CRAZY.

Family Ties, hosted by Jae Havana, digs into the personal histories and creative journeys that define hip-hop's landscape. This podcast moves beyond the music itself to explore the foundational stories-the crews, artists, labels, and groups that shape the culture's heartbeat. Each season is dedicated to a specific entity, with the inaugural season focusing on Crazy Hood Productions. The narrative traces CHP's origins in Miami, specifically Kendall, charting its evolution as hip-hop itself transformed. The series captures how this crew navigated the shift from boom bap to trap, adapting and pushing originality while staying rooted in their story. Listeners will hear firsthand accounts and behind-the-scenes perspectives that reveal the resilience and innovation required to thrive in a constantly changing artistic world. It’s a deep dive into the people and relationships that form the true ties within this musical family.
