Before the Internet
It’s no secret by now that there’s an age gap between GR and the Big Homie. Though they can still vibe about a lot of things together, there’s one thing that seperates them; GR knows what life was like before the Internet and doesn’t rely on it as heavily as the Big Homie, who only has to say “Alexa” to wake every piece of machinery in his home. Listen as the two personalities that created That’s What’s Up! contrast a little about their opinions of the Internet.

There’s so much definition when asked what kind of music we listen to. There’s many that will say “I listen to just about anything” or will lay out a certain genre they prefer over others. However, not a lot of people consider that it was like to make these songs, where the passion comes from, or what it’s like living in the industry. Blake Anthony and DJ Grumble both have experiences that can contrast the others. Listen as they describe some of their feelings working with music on a daily basis to GR and the Big Homie, only on That’s What’s Up!
