Episode 29 Danny Diablo. From the Streets of Queens to the Hardcore Scene.

It would be impossible to talk about NYHC without bringing up 2 topics. One is the impact of Queens and the amount of residents who make up a large portion of the talent that would dominate NYHC for 4 decades. The second is EZEC, or Danny Diablo as his stage name is currently. Raised in Queens at a time when Hardcore, Hip Hop, Graffiti all crossed perfectly. The exposure to the subcultures would bring him off the corner and into CBGB's and the world of NYHC.
We speak about Queens, his early days as a Sick Of It All Roadie and a number of things general to his early exposure of hardcore, the world of touring and his first band Crown of Thornz.
Hopefully we will have him back on and be able to go further into things, but for what we talked about I feel like this is a great introudction to Ezec and his perspective and impact on NYHC and Hip Hop and Graffiti.
