About me: DetroitBumps.Com is a response to what has happened to urban radio in the past 15 years. Once at the forefront of innovation and progress, black radio has become just a darker-hued version of mainstream pop stations controlled by conglomerates, payola and bottom-lines. Rob, H.E.III & mister X came up at a time when Detroit Radio (led by the legendary ELECTRIFYIN' MOJO) was bringing the hot sh*t: you were just as likely to hear Kraftwerk, Tom Tom Club and David Bowie on Black radio as Prince, Rick James and Run Dmc. Then as hip-hop/funky soul mutated into the "hottest rap and r&B" that eventually replaced pop, the variety & quality we grew up on was slowly taken from us, replaced by the same 8 mandatory songs played every hour on the hour.
We sure do like GOOD hip-hop & R&B - check out the show and see if u agree...
We'd love to provide a direct link to DetroitBumps.Com but myspace filtering perceives us a "threat"...and if by that they mean a "threat" to all the bullsh*t mainstream artists trying to dominate myspace and keep people away from the good stuff then we consider it a compliment.

Who I'd like to meet: Because we're smart-asses:
Halle Berry (naked), Beyonce (naked), Alicia Keys (naked and/or with a piano), Einstein (clothed & w/o a piano), Miri-Ben Ari (naked w/violin), Dr. Cornell West (wearing an adidas track suit and shell-tops w/no laces), Jill Scott (naked, chunky and funky!), Dr. Dre (dressed as the Green Hornet for no reason whatsoever), Rhianna/Ashanti/Christina Milian,etc. (naked and preferably silent), Flavor Flav (to help Chuck D. slap some sense into him), Suge Knight (just to talk...politely), the cast of Girlfriends (naked and hypnotised to stay with us forever)...
We wouldn't want to meet Tupac, wherever he may be.
