SHOW DESCRIPTION :
LIVE INTERVIEWS ~ LIVE PERFORMANCES ~ NEW MUSIC VIDEOS ~ NEW DJ MIXES
THE BSIDESHOW IS A PROMOTIONAL SHOW INTENDED TO SHOWCASE THE ACTIVE HIP HOP SCENE IN THE LOS ANGELES AREA AND BEYOND.
IT BEGAN ITS JOURNEY IN SEPTEMBER 2010 THROUGH A DISCUSSION BETWEEN RABBIT AND A MUTUAL FREIND OF LONG TIME CO HOST WACKOE. IT WOULD THEN BE DEVELOPED WITH WACKOE AND DJ PHYZ ED INTO WHAT WOULD EVENTUALLY BECOME THE BSIDESHOW. THE IDEA WAS SIMPLE. INTERVIEW SEVERAL GUESTS ACTIVE IN THE HIP HOP COMMUNITY WHILE A DJ PROVIDED LIVE MUSIC. IF THE GUEST HAD MUSIC VIDEOS THEY WOULD BE AIRED AS WELL. IF THE GUEST WAS A PERFORMER, A SEGMENT WOULD BE PROVIDED FOR THEM TO PERFORM LIVE. WITH RABBIT AND WACKOE HOSTING AND DJ PHYZ ED BEHIND THE 1S AND 2S THE SHOW FINALLY PREMIERED ON NOVEMBER 1ST 2010 AND HAS CONTINUE WEEKLY FOR NEARLY FIVE YEARS STRAIGHT EVER SINCE. WITH THE ADDITION OF EXECUTIVE PRODUCER DRAKK WHO WOULD PRODUCE AND DEVELOPE THE SHOW FOR THE FIRST 4 YEARS THE BSIDE SHOW CONTINUED TO GROW AT A FASTER PACE.
THE SHOW HAS HAD SEVERAL GUEST HOSTS THROUGH OUT THE YEARS WITH ONLY TWO OF THEM CONSIDERED REGULAR CO HOSTS. ONE OF THESE RECENTLY BEING CECELIA THE MAMACITA OF KDAY. THE SHOW HAS ALSO HAD MANY DJS BLESSING THE TABLES AND PROVIDING MUSIC FOR EACH SHOW THROUGH OUT THE YEARS. A CORE TEAM OF DJS WAS FINALLY ESTABLISHED RECENTLY AND HAVE CONTINUED PROVIDING THE MUSIC ON A WEEKLY BASIS.
THE BSIDESHOW HAS INTERVIEWED NEARLY 1000 GUESTS IN ITS SHORT 5 YEAR HISTORY. FROM INDEPENDENT TO MAINSTREAM ARTISTS OF ALL GENRES OF MUSIC TO PAINTERS, COMMUNITY ORGANIZERS, ACTIVISTS, PROMOTERS, LOCAL BUSINESSES AND MORE.
BEING THE FLAGSHIP SHOW THE BSIDESHOW IS DEFINITELY THE LARGEST PRODUCTION OF THE BSIDE CHANNEL LINE UP BUT YEARS OF EXPERIENCE HAVE MADE IT THE MOST EXCITING AND OVER ALL FUNNEST TO PUT TOGETHER FOR THE STAFF. WE ARE VERY PROUD OF THE POSITIVE RESPONSE THE SHOW HAS GOTTEN FROM BOTH FANS AND GUESTS ALIKE AND WE ARE COMMITTED TO CONTINUING TO SHOWCASE THE ACTIVE HIP HOP SCENE FOR MANY MORE YEARS TO COME.
