E-Dub's Crates

This corner of the site is dedicated to my dad, Eric Powell- the first person who put me on to real hip-hop. "E-Dub's Crates" is a collection of songs, albums, memories, and moments from his playlist that shaped my love for the culture. From old-school, underground, and new. From tracks that played loud on long drives, classics from the basement, to lessons he wanted me to hear. this is a space to not only put yall on to a few tracks but it's a space where his legacy lives on!

  • From The Basement

    Kept in heavy rotation. Raw, soulful, and slept-on tracks that never left the basement.

  • In The Car

    Bass up. Played on long drives— whether it was a beat that made him nod or lyrics that made him shout. Some may have been on repeat.

  • Lessons From E-Dub

    “Listen to what they’re saying…” The gems, the values, the lessons.
