I hope everyone is enjoying their families and their blessings on this Thanksgiving weekend. I got my grub on and now its time for me to drop a new show on ya! I set this week's show off with a classic live performance by DJ JAZZY JEFF & FRESH PRINCE circa 1986. New heat from BEKAY, U-GOD, CLIPSE, GRAND PUBA, SLAUGHTERHOUSE, FOCUS and X.O. followed by classics by CHUBB ROCK and REDMAN round out the show.
The featured interview this week is with one of Youngstown, Ohio's grizzliest emcees- AAROPHAT. Aarophat is no stranger to THE ZRO HOUR. Previously selected as a spotlight artist on THEZROHOUR.COM and one of the original RAWKUS 50 from 2007, Aarophat has had his music spun many times over several past shows. Aarophat, along with producer Illastrate, have joined forces as BLACK NOISE. I talked with Aaro about this project and his current movement. For all iTunes subscribers, Aarophat has provided a bonus download, "Whatchagannado feat DOLO", from the "Black Noise" CD.
To all those who have been searching for THE ZRO HOUR on myspace.com, the page fell victim to a hacker. All files and friends were lost but a new account has been set up and I will be rebuilding the page over the next few days. The address is the same- http://www.myspace.com/thezrohour.

Enjoy the show..
