dublab presents the Sounds of Now

Founded in 2005 by writer Jeff Weiss (The Ringer, Washington Post, GQ), POW is the last rap blog.

The radio show is an extension of this far-flung sound, boasting guest mixes from the rotating cast of POW contributors that span Latin boogaloo to Soviet Jazz to West Coast street rap.

This month’s show is a Kenyan gengetone mix by Leonel Manzanares de la Rosa.
