Drink Champs Network Presents: ROC Solid with Memphis Bleek.

This week on ROC Solid, we tappin’ in with none other than Dave East & Young Chris —  A powerful episode that blends generations of East Coast greatness. Bringing that Harlem energy fans have been waiting for, Dave keeps it all the way real about the grind that took him from hoop dreams to hip hop stardom, and how linking with Nas and Mass Appeal changed the trajectory of his career. 

East breaks down the pressure of representing New York, the importance of staying authentic in an industry full of gimmicks, and why storytelling is his superpower.

He speaks on his evolution—from “Black Rose” to “Survival” to his newest ventures—and how acting in Wu-Tang: An American Saga opened new doors while proving he’s more than just a rapper. Dave also opens up about fatherhood, losses he’s endured, and how pain fuels his pen. 

Young Chris shares classic Roc-A-Fella stories, how State Property shifted the culture, and the lessons he learned directly from Jay-Z. Dave East speaks on being inspired by that era, how those blueprints shaped his style, and the respect he has for the pioneers who came before him.

From Harlem to Philly, these two lyricists break down the art of bars, the importance of legacy, and what it really takes to survive in the game. Two generations, one mission—carry the torch and keep the culture alive. This is East Coast royalty in conversation at its finest.

Tap in - history’s being told by the ones who lived it.
