The Roberto Flack Chronicles

The legendary duo of Stretch Armstrong and Bobbito Garcia reunite for one night only on WKCR 89.9FM in NYC celebrating the 20th Anniversary of their show which began in 1990 and ended in 1998. The show till this day is still regarded by many as the Greatest Hip Hop Radio Show of All Time ushering in talent from the 90s such as Wu Tang, Jay Z, Big L, Nas, Big Pun, DMX, and a slew of others before they were signed. With the sudden news that the station will no longer offer shows to people who aren’t students of Columbia University (which is where WKCR stems from) the current show (Squeeze Radio hosted by Sucio Smash) is ending. There’s a current petition right now to help save the show from canceling. You can sign the petition here.

If you’re in the NYC area, tune into tonight from 1-5am on 89.9FM, and if not go to WKRC’s Website to listen live.

XXL Magazine’s website posted the 20 Best Freestyles from the Stretch and Bobb shows. Make sure to check that out! Check below for a brief history on the legendary show.

On a personal note: I have the privilege of saying I’ve been on WKCR (Squeeze Radio era) along with the homie BK Cyph and just being in a room where legendary artists began their road to success is something i”ll truly never forget. I salute any and everyone who’s contributed to both Squeeze Radio and Stretch and Bobb show.
