Dan Brown | Boom Bap Roots, Album Journeys & Creative Discipline

On this episode of The Show Podcast, we—K-Saulz and Dick Dastardly—sit down with Dan Brown, a seasoned UK MC whose journey through boom bap, live performance, and independent grind is built on discipline, consistency, and pure love for the culture. From early inspirations to current album mode, Dan brings depth, humour, and reflection in a conversation that feels like hip-hop therapy. -The Show Streams Live on https://www.mixcloud.com/The_Show2025 every other Wednesday starting from 30/04/2025. -Check Out All Of The Radio Show Episodes Where We Play All The Greatest Hits In HipHop at: https://www.k-saulz.co.uk/theshow Dan breaks down how discovering classic hip-hop shaped his identity as an MC, why he’s always stayed true to boom bap foundations, and how growing up writing rhymes in his bedroom led to years of gigs, crews, and live shows across the UK. We talk about his move from Northampton to Brighton, supporting legends like KRS-One, and how different scenes sharpened his skills on stage. We go deep into album-making as an artform—why Dan believes albums should feel like journeys, not playlists, and how working with multiple producers allows him to explore tone, texture, faith, humour, love, and life experience across one cohesive project. Dan also shares insight into his upcoming album and EP, his meticulous planning process, and why being one step ahead creatively is key to longevity. Beyond music, we explore video creation, content strategy, balancing family life with creativity, and the importance of honest feedback over yes-men energy. From writing rituals and beat selection to cooking, painting, fitness, and mindset, this episode captures what it really means to grow as an artist without losing yourself. This is a masterclass in patience, purpose, and putting the work in—no shortcuts. #DanBrown #TheShowPodcast #UKHipHop #BoomBapCulture #IndependentArtist Key Moments: 00:00:52 – Introducing Dan Brown & dedicating the episode 00:02:56 – Dan’s early hip-hop influences and boom bap roots 00:05:13 – Writing rhymes young and finding his first crews 00:07:39 – Why 90s MCs sounded so mature at such a young age 00:11:02 – Moving from Northampton to Brighton for music 00:13:56 – Supporting KRS-One and major live performance moments 00:16:10 – Why Dan prefers being sent beats over producing 00:17:55 – Falling in love with video creation and content 00:20:30 – The importance of honest feedback over yes-men 00:26:24 – Writing off pure inspiration and catching lightning 00:29:24 – Upcoming album & EP plans explained 00:30:48 – Why albums should feel like journeys 00:34:04 – Video rollout strategy and long-term planning 00:37:18 – Building real connections through consistency 00:39:18 – Structuring creativity with schedules and lists 00:44:14 – Time management, discipline, and mindset 00:48:39 – Writing process: first bars, cadence, and flow 00:52:17 – Life outside music: art, fitness, cooking, balance
