Steelo Brim and Travis Bennett bring two New York Icons to  #TheShop;  legendary rapper Fabolous and the one & only Greg Yuna are pulling up a chair this week. They get into the aftermath of the East Coast vs West Coast rap beef, what Tupac would’ve done with social media, who really belongs on a top New York rappers list, and if men are outdoing women with jewelry. 

The guys also discuss the social content that draws audiences in on the regular, what the mixtape era used to do for hip hop, if reinvention is really the move, and how the meaning of “being cool” has switched up on us.
