For Episode 5 of Rock-Star Guide to the Galaxy, we hooked up with Bay Area producer and emcee Jason Valerio, aka Trackademicks. As part of the Honor Roll and Fool's Gold Records crew, he's produced cuts for J*Davey, Lyrics Born, Mistah F.A.B.and E-40.
We tracked Track down in Oakland, Calif., where he gave us a tour of his studio. We spent the rest of the day learning the best spots to pick up records, new kicks, ceviche tacos and some of the best Mojitos the East Bay has to offer.
Watch the video, get schooled in Trackademia and check out exclusive premiere of Enjoy What You / Topsidin with remixes from label-mates Flosstradamus and Sammy Bananas.

It wouldn't be the holidays without eating, gift-giving and more
eating. We put the word out to some of our favorite artists -- Faith
Hill, Zac Brown, Adele and many more -- and they got back to us with
their favorite holiday recipes, including photos. So preheat your
ovens, throw on this playlist and enjoy the culinary stylings of
Rhapsody's own Top Chefs.
Every year on the last weekend of September, 400,000 people crowd into 13 blocks of San Francisco's South of Market neighborhood to take part in the annual Folsom Street Fair. To date, this non-profit leather/fetish festival has raised over $3.5 million dollars for local and national charities. This year marked the 25th anniversary of the Folsom Street Fair and Rhapsody was there to talk to a few of the performers, female electro up-and-comers Von Iva, and the Grammy nominated Shiny Toy Guns.

I took an informal poll recently among a few friends and IM acquaintances and asked what came to mind when I said “Baltimore." John Waters, The Wire and Michael Phelps were the most common answers (that’s what I would have said too), which I suppose means nothing except that we all watch a lot of TV. The point I’m trying to make here is that none of those things were on Aaron Lacrate's list. That’s because he’s from there.

Arkansas Heat saved my life. My most miserable summer ever happened back in 2002 in a place called Tempe, Arizona. It was hot. We were bored and isolated. Dancing in our underwear in the un-airconditioned apartment we called “it” and “there” but never “home,” screaming along with Beth Ditto belting, “Gotta get yourself out of this hell,” was our only reprieve.
