About SMOKE SIGNALS The Little Shawn Files

Smoke Signals is a cinematic audio series narrated by Little Shawn — a storyteller with a front-row seat to the streets, the music industry, and the moments history forgot to write down. Each episode unfolds like a movie in your ears, pulling listeners into real stories from Brooklyn’s East Flatbush era — where hustlers, rappers, record executives, and street legends all crossed paths in ways most people never knew. From behind-the-scenes moments in the rise of hip-hop… to encounters with figures tied to some of the culture’s most controversial chapters… Smoke Signals reveals the backstory that never made the headlines. Raw. Unfiltered. And told by someone who was actually there. Because sometimes the real story doesn’t come from the spotlight… It comes from the smoke.

EPMD SMOKE

This episode of Smoke Signals pulls back the curtain on a story that’s been told the wrong way for years. Little Shawn takes you back to a night in Fayetteville, North Carolina that was supposed to be an afterparty—but turned into chaos in seconds. What started as a simple exchange inside a club escalated into violence, gunfire, and a run for survival that most people involved would rather rewrite than remember. From touring with Special Ed alongside names like MC Hammer, Public Enemy, and Too Short… to witnessing firsthand how perception and reality don’t always match in the industry, this episode focuses on EPMD—with a spotlight on Erick Sermon. This isn’t a polished industry version of events. This is what actually happened. From the moment tensions sparked inside that club… to the aftermath involving The Hill-Creek Boys… to a hotel scene that introduced Big Daddy Kane and a situation that could’ve gone even further… every detail is told from someone who was there. The episode also revisits a later encounter at Apollo Theater, and another situation involving DJ Scratch and Parrish Smith that left more questions than answers. No rewrites. No exaggeration. No “entertainer version” of the truth. Just firsthand accounts. Smoke Signals is dedicated to telling these stories exactly how they happened—not the watered-down versions that get passed around for entertainment. Like, share, subscribe… and tell a friend to tell a friend. The Signals are Smoked Out. I’m Little Shawn. And these are The Smoke Signals.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
