The world of music with a San Diego slant: The SoundDiego Podcast brings the NBC 7 TV show and music platform to online life with an exploration of the community local musicians and music fans — and touring acts headed San Diego’s way — live and breathe in, from the moment they order their breakfast burrito to the time they call it a night at the Casbah. Host Dustin Lothspeich is a San Diego Music Award winner and longtime chronicler of the weird and unforgettable scene and will plug you in or show you where there’s an outlet.
In 2019, San Diego rapper Choosey (and producer Exile) dropped one of the best albums of the year with "Black Beans" (via Dirty Science Records). A mix of vintage doo-wop, AM radio oldie samples and Choosey's impeccably smooth flow, the record launched him into the limelight the world over. Naturally, Choosey took home Album of the Year and Artist of the Year at our 2019 SoundDiego Music Awards and is currently up for Best Hip-Hop or Rap Artist at the 2020 San Diego Music Awards. Be sure to follow him on Twitter and Instagram; and visit his online store at KingChoosey.com, TheDirtyScience.com for news, and his Bandcamp page for more music.
