Billy Jam:

PLEASE NOTE: to fully make the point of the effects of censorship on the art form of hip-hop that there are two different archvied versions of this show - the clean FCC approved one played during the live FM broadcast and stream between 7-8pm today EST + the uncensored EXPLICIT curse-heavy version that will have been posted to the archives upon completion of the live broadcast. Hence in the archives both versions will be playable anytime after the live broadcast. During the pre-recorded interviews with WFMU's Joe D and Ken Freedman I encouraged both to curse at will - assuring them that I would edit out the curses for the initial live FM broadcast version but would leave all curses intact for the "explicit" archive show version. Note that the other key difference between the two archived versions is that the "explicit" version will not be accuplaylist/time-stamped - hence upon playback you will not be able to jump to specific points in show to song start positions. -

Billy Jam:

thanks to all who participated in today's show - including Joe D and Ken Freedman for doing interviews, Celeste in Albany for recording drop for today's show and Danny Barry (aka recording artist DeMolina) for suppling the music played behind Celeste's voiceover, Jim the Poet for engineering today's show and both Rebecca L + John Dalton for posting the clean and explicit versions respectively to the archives. And thanks to all the hip-hop artists for recording their great music that will be played today. And thank YOU for listening to this live show and later to the explicit version.

Greetings from the dark roads in Peekskill 19566
I heard about this curse no curse version tonight
Are there going to be bleeps etc. where the jams are censored?

@jimthepoet
I just had the same issue. And other glitches. I thought I was being censored. Honestly because I was censored on another show this week

Wow, Billy - this makes such a powerful statement on censorship in a really original way. And at the same time, it's funny, like an SNL skit or something: "Hip Hop's Greatest Hits [Kids' Version]!"

as the DJ it is even more frustrating since it took me ages to get it working and even then the website keeps dropping out on me - argh - but this is a rarity at W F M U know

What if the beeps were replaced with a voice saying "la la la...", etc.

Change your wfmu.org or www.wfmu.org to freeform.wfmu.org , and you will at least avoid those 503 errors and have a greater likelihood of eventually getting the page you requested.

Hi All - Sorry about the problems- we are being DDOS’ed, second time in a week. We will be better later tonight.

the radio friendly chorus of "Gangsta Gangsta" sure does take a different lane than the album chorus

Lol, chresti - or do some creative dubbing, like "find a stranger in the Alps" from the TV cut of Lebowski, or "super sucker" from the TV version of Casino.

(*unexplained network issues.) One adjustment was made a few minutes ago, and perhaps we're doing better for it now.

Mariano makes an excellent point: the streams and the FM radio are fine. The only problem is with the playlist pages and the internal WFMU pages (homepage still works mostly). Things seem slightly better now, thanks Kenzo

I'm blaming the phonescammers with spoofed caller ID information for this. Obviously they want WFMU to play more songs about the "Social Security Administration" calling you to steal your ID
