CWTFB Radio

We've had plenty of artists on this platform who need no introduction when it comes to the city of Boston, and this week we welcome back another Roxbury MC who can flow with the best of them and move in many different rooms, Oompa! Since our #QuarantineSeries talk dating back to Episode 17, Oompa has been staying relevant with her own media platform "The New Sh*t Show" (which we unfortunately fail...

When it comes to music, the most important part of the record has to be the sound; the song. With Hip-Hop and R&B forever evolving and adding more layers to the genres, it takes certain ears to capture it all and deliver a polished finish product. There are plenty of beat-makers in the industry but not too many can meticulously produce songs around artists like a musical architect, like Humbeats....

Over the past few years Brockton, MA has been getting a lot of press–and not the type of press some residents of this city just south of Boston is used to getting. There have been many Rap/Hip-Hop movements coming out of Brockton and surrounding areas but there hasn't been one with such viral nature like the one led by the melodic Trap artist, DTheFlyest. Bandits The Label has made a name for them...

In an era of Rap (especially local Rap) which is mostly all-inclusive, real artistry often gets over-looked as long as you have a catchy hook or maybe some gun/drug bars that some street dudes can actually vouch for. Certain people can filter out the ones who are hot right now and the ones who can create timeless art. Cassoreli, formerly known as 'Casso, is one of the artists from Boston who gave...

As we grow as a platform, we also want to encourage ourselves to do more and learn more. This growth isn't selfish; as we wish it for our viewership and most importantly the communities they come from. Local politics is a way we can all help voice our concerns and needs within our communities, while hopefully creating a sustainable ecosystem than can be duplicated and implemented onto larger bodie...

With many sounds coming out of Boston as of late, it's really hard to keep up with the hottest and the latest. What's really hard to ignore is raw, authentic, purely unadulterated musical synergy and a passion for creating. When you take elements of the great Earth, Wind, and Fire, funk, R&B, a Mos-Def & Talib inspired boom-bap Rap and a smooth laid back cookout vibe–you come out with the collecti...

As much as we all wanted to hurry up and get 2020 over with, we cannot deny how great some of the music coming out of Boston was towards the end of the year! One of the stand-out projects are definitely "You Played You" by the Strip Life representative and Fields Corner native, Prince Smooth! In a Hip-Hop scene that is more all-inclusive than ever, the slick talking MC delivered a 10 track EP with...

Being able to move around in many different crowds isn't something that every artist can do. It's only a recipe for someone who has full confidence in themselves and know what they bring to the table. Skill, experience, finesse and a little bit of grit; all words dropped in the pot to come up with the Boston LEGEND Lisa Bello! Hailing from Hyde Park, and moving all around the city throughout her c...

It's easy to look clean when you haven't gotten your hands dirty from doing any work, right? The real challenge is to continuously take short after short and still come out of the carnage like you never stopped shining! That's why it was imperative that we start the year with a story of triumph from none other than the Mattapan native– R&B artist, Triy! Happy New Year! With a deep-rooted musical b...

2020 has been ONE HELL OF A YEAR!!! And thats just short and sweet. From over 300,000 deaths from Covid-19 in the US alone, an increased documentation of police brutality/ abuse of power, the longest election ever in the history of elections, and just the big cloud of uncertainty all around the globe, this may easily go down as the most emotionally gripping year of our generation– by a landslide!...

This week we welcome one of Boston's most well-known and high demand "femcees", Dutch ReBelle! Having a decade long career in Hip-hop calls for a lot of stories and a lot of experience, which Dutch thoroughly displayed in this sit-down with Charlie MaSheen & Bellez. Since her inception into the Boston rap scene, Dutch has always found a way to keep her listeners engaged with her lyrical ability an...

It has often been said that pain is a universal language. Everybody respects pain because we all feel it but not many can express it universally. Trottie Y Gizzle is a young rap artist from Jamaica Plain with a common theme of pain in his music and has been stealing the attention of Hip-Hop lovers throughout the city of Boston and beyond!  At a mere 22yrs old you may ask what he knows about pain;...

*Recorded Nov 25th, 2020 Consistency, longevity, experience, pain, success, HIGH LEVEL RAP, and a long list of other things; good and bad–all come together to describe Cambridge-bred MC, Millyz! As our first guest on Youtube Live, we are honored to have Millyz pull up to Detailz with his team and give us a piece of his heart and creativity in this 1-on-1 with Charlie MaSheen!

*Recorded Nov 21, 2020 As the last repeat guest of 2020, we welcome our guy "Teflon Hoot" aka BoriRock back to CWTFB Radio! We started the year off with BoriRock & Dun Dealy and we felt it was only right to have another sit down with Bori after the release of his latest project "Fishscale"!  BoriRock originally caught the attention of Charlie MaSheen when he released "Cardboard Hearts", a soulfull...

*Recorded Nov 5th, 2020 As 2020 comes to an end with only 5 weeks remaining, we take it back to week 6 of this podcast with the Roxbury-based Hip-Hop powerhouse, Shooterz Muzik!!! This time around the guest cast looks a little different as Chilla lets his youngest and very talented artists take the wheel and drive the boat. 8 Zipp couldn't make it since he was out of town and our guy KT Cuatro is...

*Recorded Oct 29, 2020 What does Ice Cube, Masta Killa, Lloyd Banks, Lauryn Hill, and Boston-bred MC Prince Rich all have in common? They have always been arguably, in their own rights the sharpest pen in their original crews while not being the face of the brand. While thats been part of the story for Prince Rich, he never let that stop him from delivery quality bars every single trip! As one of...

*Recorded Oct 22, 2020 Back to CWTFB Radio for the first time is Boston-based (Dorchester to be exact) 90's and trap influenced rapper, Buff Da God! As our first guest at our new location, we are are very pleased to bring back a familiar voice to the pod, but this time with our co-host Tiny Bellez tag-teaming with Charlie MaSheen for a more in depth interview.  Buff Da God has been busy all 2020 w...

*Recorded Oct 15, 2020 Brockton has gotten so much press within the last couple of years–and not for some of the most common reasons. There's been an influx of new musical talent and one artist who's stood out to Charlie MaSheen and the team here at CWTFB Radio is a boom-bap loving, lyrically inclined, deep voiced, intense, dark and gloomy rapper who simply goes by his birth name, Jiles.  Prior to...

*Recorded October 10th When it comes to podcasting in Boston–especially Black culture podcasts, BNF Podcast was one of the first to gain large traction within the city back in 2016. When Charlie MaSheen began CWTFB Radio in January, he actually credits BNF as being one of the platforms which inspired him to start podding. For many different reasons, BNF Podcast dismantled a few years back which le...

We've been tapping into Boston's R&B scene as of late and this week we're back with one of the leading voices in the city; a Rhode Island native turned Bostonian, Eva Davenport! Charlie MaSheen & Tiny Bellez welcomes the songstress to the couch to catch some laughs and talk all things R&B. Eva dives into her emergence on the scene in 2017, the help and warm embrace she's gotten from fellow creator...

When it comes to the R&B scene in Boston, one of the most prominent names over the past decade has been the often slow tempo vocalist, Punky The Singer. Since her teenage years Punky has always found a way to keep her supporters engaged and anticipating her next move. With certain social media platforms gaining traction and famous rappers like #LilWayne #WizKhalifa & #SouljaBoy mentioning her name...

South End native Yahweh Almighty has been a part of the music scene in Boston for a few years now but really put some fuel on the fire within the past year with a more polished version of his trap-crooner style and larger than life personality. Starting with his single "Not Invited" he was able to spark interest in a lot of supporters and even made himself noticeable to some industry names. His 20...

*Recorded Sep 10th, 2020 On our podcast with Boston Legend and industry vet, DJ Chubby Chub, Vanni Allan Poe was an artist who he mentioned as someone to check for from a 2019 spin-off of the famous "Bonnie & Clyde" record by the late great Tupac. Vanni is an artist who's been doing his thing for quite some time in the Boston scene and can rap with the lyricists but can also make heartfelt records...

*Recorded Sep 3rd, 2020 When we talk about some of the youngest artists in the Boston music scene who are ready for the main stage, we HAVE to mention the multi-talented young man, Clark D! Raised in the Hyde Park area of the city, Clark D was able to take his musical background/knowledge and apply it to Hip-Hop with a sound that Charlie MaSheen described as "purist meets the new school".  Clark D...

*Recorded Aug 27th, 2020 Since the release of "Sex Money Kush" in 2016, Mattapan native Reem Skully has made a name for himself in the Boston Rap scene as somebody to keep an open ear for. He has always found a way to keep listeners engaged with his very street influenced and neighborhood themed lyrics along with some very well put together visuals.  Theres been a lot of support behind Reem Skully...
