Shade 45 is dope as fukk. I remember the first time i heard "Michael Knight" on that bytch.
I have one of tha biggest collections out there (of west coast music atleast) all that underground shyt from every city, I grew up in tha late 80s and 90s, so I got all tha classics that I grew up with, but that shyt gets played out after a while, and I get tunnel vision playing tha same old shyt, it's refreshing to hear something new, I try to keep up when tha Coli post a new album etc, but I'm not always by tha computer when something new drops so a lot of new shyt I pass up unintentionally, that's where this radio would come into play...I got sirius in my car when I first got it, and everytime i have to renegotiate you can get like 6 months for like 30-40 bucks if you hassle with em and shyt or find a deal.
so for hip hop specifically you get xlhiphop which would be like all your recent hip hop singles/hits/new tracks mixed in with big songs of last 5-7 years as well. xl hip hop has shows from djs like skee, envy, premier, and shyt
you get shade 45 which has a lot of dj shows, like drama, green lantern, tony touch, kayslay, statik selektah (the best), all out show (hilarious), and they play whatever the fukk they want as a station. dj shows if you have a favorite are definitely worth it.
you get backspin which plays 80s and 90s music 24/7
you get the heat which is r&b and hip hop singles recent and throwback - also edited if that makes a difference
but they got several hundred stations that i never listen to that all probably have some sort of fire for me
i hate to sound like i'm bout this shyt, cause i do love playing music off my phone, but thats only cause i've had my car 2 years and i'm so used to Sirius i'm justabout it. hopefully my review actually helps you instead off these clowns like "
paying for radio" cause they really have no idea how actually dope sirius is if you not heavy into your collection like that which you do not seem to be and have an open mind beyond hip hop
it's a nice bargain if you can get some of the deals
you def do not need it, but you'd probably have to do more digging for music without it
