How the '95 Source Awards Changed Hip-Hop and Atlanta Forever (Banjee Boombox Bonus Episode)
Manage episode 495695548 series 3301140
On this special Queue Points bonus episode, exclusively for Banjee Boombox, we're turning up the volume on one of hip hop's most pivotal nights - the 1995 Source Awards. How did a tense moment, a lukewarm applause, and Andre 3000’s immortal words (“the South got something to say!”) launch Atlanta into the center of hip hop? Hosts DJ Sir Daniel and Jay Ray break it all down in classic Queue Points style: smart, entertaining, and rooted in Black music history.
Come hear why Atlanta’s moment on that New York stage changed not just the music, but Black culture forever.
This is part one for the Podcast Village at Banjee Boombox on August 3, 2025! For the full episode, reflections, the other showstopping moment of the night and how the ‘95 Source Awards relates to queer hip hop, stop by the Queue Points table at the event. Can’t make it? The full episode drops in Queue Points Magazine on August 4th.
Tune in, tap in, and let’s boom!
