Been rockin with you since I first discovered Put This On! years back (pre-beard haha) and then found Bullseye accidentally.

Now this? You're an ill dude for doing all that you do for the culture, brother. And thank you for helping men feel good about getting dressed up as well.

Also, and let this be known, your interview with DJ Quik is the single greatest interview I've ever heard with him, and I was jumping up and down in my car as the conversation went on as you were the first person that I felt really respected the man for all that he's done and didn't come with some lazy, half-hearted bullshit like so many other interviewers have done (*cough cough @Microphone Check FEEL FREE TO SPEAK IN A TONE LOUDER THAN A WHISPER, BELOVED HOSTS! cough cough*)

As for interviewee recommendations for "Heat Rocks", here's my list (which is heavily LA-focused with the exception of Gilles Peterson):

- DJ Quik
- Battlecat
- Tokimonsta
- Jimetta Rose
- Gilles Peterson
- Dam Funk
- Exile
- J.Rocc, Rhettmatic, Mr. Choc (or any of the Beat Junkies)
- Mochilla (B+ and Eric Coleman)
- Terrace Martin
- Raphael Saadiq

Much love, and keep on rockin', Jesse!
