DJ Boom Shack started the night off with a soothing new track "Soak It Up" by Houses out Chicago, which lead way into the brand new single "On/Off The Ledge by ROBOTANISTS. The highlights though were Starfuckers "Bury Us Alive" and LA hip-hop newcomer Reason with "Life Of A Star (feat. Raz)", as well as "Keepin It Gangsta" the latest from Gzus Piece. For the complete track list check to the right.
Our first special guest was none other than Jerry Davis of Fox Sports. The 28 year music industry veteran and pioneer came on the show and shut it down. Jerry spoke on his great career touching on his work at ASCAP where he helped guide some of today's most well known hip-hop artists like Ice Cube, Cypress Hill, Too Short and more! Jerry's set list was a compilation of the music that he says played a huge role for him as he was learning the game. His set included classics from Run D.M.C., Megadeth, Earth Wind & Fire and more.
Our final guest DJ was DJ Broadway straight out of Pasadena. Broadway came in with some pounding bass, spinning some classic old school hip-hop, r&b/ soul. A lover of hip hop, DJ Broadway began at Loud Records working A&R bringing us the likes of The Alkaholiks and Xzibit. The highlight of the night was "Bonita Applebum" as Broadway's bass had the room shaking with bottles hitting the ground!
We closed the night out with a classic sing-a-long from The Walker Brothers "The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine (Anymore)". 01/24/22011

Our first show of 2011 was a crazy fun time! We had some great guests, including a killer performance by up and coming electro/pop artist Amber Melody. Amber played a stripped down set with two back up singers, acoustic guitar and our favorite a cajon player! Her live sound is a great transition from what you will hear on her album and we think we bode very well in this new year. We recommend checking her out and catching one of her shows!
Our first industry guest DJ set of 2011 belonged to Sam Schulman (A&R Interscope Records). Sam who was also responsible for linking us to Amber Melody featured some killer new tastemaker artists. Including the latest from Compton's own Kendrick Lamar whose song "She Needs Me" (Remix) is catching some crazy buzz as he just signed to Aftermath Records. He also dropped Baby Blue with "Double Up" and the always enticing Deadmau5 with "Sofi Needs A Ladder"! Keep a look out for Kendrick Lamar as we see a huge 2011 in store for him.
Also featured at the show was Prince Sole whose song "All Day Lover" feat. Ray J has been featured on the Hunnypot website and been getting heavy play at radio. Prince came through to keep us up to date with his latest happenings and said we should be expecting a bangin' new single very soon!

We pulled out a classic archival performance/interview of Unknown Hinson from his appearance on the Hunnypot Radio Show, on May 5, 2008. Hinson was in full character for this performance and it was brilliant! Many of you may also know him as the voice of Early Cuyler on the popular Adult Swim show Squidbillies. This performance is truly great in both a comedic and musical fashion!
