Our Music Director, Ben Slowey, is more than on top of the local music scene. In addition to his work for Breaking And Entering, he also hosts the Mr. Nice Guy podcast, an interview-based show that reaches out to Milwaukeeans for conversations about what motivates them. Many of these shows fittingly involve the local music scene, and we’ll be sharing some of them here as well.

Today, Ben talks to hip hop artist and emcee Spade One, who has been involved in Milwaukee music for over thirty years. He has performed and emceed with various music collectives, the most recent of which being Fluid Dynamics. They discussed Spade’s humble beginnings doing hip hop in the 90s, the November Criminals, Boombox Saintz, Milwaukee Noize Collective, and what he’s been working on lately.
