Raising Hell did what no rap album had done before, becoming the first multi-platinum hip-hop LP and propelling rap music into the mainstream consciousness.

Erik Griffin joins the podcast for the first time since 2019 to discuss tracks like the crossover sensation “Walk This Way” and “It’s Tricky.”
