Blackout Rap Show – Raw Shack Productions Interview w/ G. Sulmers & Yeshua Da PoED (25.03.1998.)

As I dig in my Blackout archives, here’s another Radio 101 gem from 1998. I interviewed Brooklyn’s own Raw Shack Productions owner George Sulmers & his artist Yeshua Da PoED. The boys phone in from Hamburg, Germany while on a short European promo run. Georges breaks down his history in the music industry working for Def Jam, Epic & even at Wall Street before starting Raw Shack in the mid 90’s with J Live & Mr Complex as flagship artists. Georges & I met in NYC in 1997, we kept in touch over the years and Georges even offered me a place to stay at his pad in Brooklyn when Das EFX went to Japan to perform for the weekend & didn’t leave the key for me to get in their Ronkonkoma, Long Island house where i stayed at for a month in the year 2000. Forever grateful! Also, I still keep the original Raw Shack Productions 90s’ T-Shirt (check the side image). Enjoy this Blackout Rap Show gem & Happy 2023! More digs to come soon…
