The Alchemist ‘We Gonna Make It’ + ‘Terry’ Track Reviews | Ep. 163

The Crate 808 Podcast

Today we bring you our Digging in the Crates series, looking at key songs from a hip hop artist’s catalogue. And this week, we have two cuts from The Alchemist to dig into - Zilla Rocca and Dylan Green break down why they love Action Bronson’s ‘Terry’ (2015) and Jadakiss’ ‘We Gonna Make It’ (2001). Fans of our ‘Why I Love’ series will know this format well, but with a DITC rebrand we’re looking to explore outside the worlds of MF DOOM and J Dilla…and boy do we have some fun episodes coming up for you fans of Roc Marciano, billy woods, Mach-Hommy, Ka, The Alchemist and MORE 🍿
