Capital J breaks down the real process behind making mixtapes before streaming, downloads, and social media. From hunting records, choosing the hottest first song, blending R&B with hip-hop, shouting out stores, dubbing tapes, selling hand-to-hand, and building street distribution — this episode is a history lesson on mixtape culture from someone who lived it.

DL Glass connects the mixtape grind to independent film distribution, showing how music, movies, bootlegs, and street networks helped local creators reach places they never expected.
