This a mixtape of songs with “work” in the title. Some songs are about working, and some songs are even about dancing at work (so to speak). But even if you don’t work at Bada Bing, they’re all safe to listen to at your jobby job. Aside from the theme, it’s a very random bag, but we guarantee it will make your day go a little faster! Big up The Hairpin for starting this mix series and having me do the first one.

Rub Radio streams in a three hour loop.

DJ Eleven has uploaded 40 of his mixtapes from the last ten years or so, including a bunch of our collaborations. I encourage you to listen to all of them, but I’m also reposting our collabs here.

I was digging up old interviews we did for Scion, and found this gem on YouTube. Our August show will have a ton of interviews that we’ve done over the last five years: A-Trak, Azari & III, Big KRIT, Bro Safari, Busy P, Carte Blanche, Diplo, DJ Revolution, DJ Yoda, Drop the Lime, Jack Beats, Kid Sister, Nadastrom, Para One, Todd Terje, Too Short and more! This month we have and hour and a half long interview with Just Blaze and a ton of classic hip-hop.

Next Saturday is our 10 Year Anniversary of The Rub!  For god’s sake, get there early.
