    "comment": "Check out Fresh off the Spaceship if you haven't already. It's a podcast from KEXP telling the story of the Black Constellation, an artist collective with Seattle roots and cosmic reach. It's a 10-part series, an invitation into the music and a journey through the feeling that the Black Constellation evokes. The Constellation is a creative convening of such innovative and varied musical acts as Shabazz Palaces (helmed by Ishmael Butler of Grammy-award winning trio Digable Planets), Stas THEE Boss (formerly of THEESatisfaction), Erik Blood, OCnotes, Porter Ray, JusMoni, and Ya Tseen. It also includes visual and literary artists Maikoiyo Alley-Barnes and Nep Sidhu. https://www.kexp.org/fresh-off-the-spaceship/\n---\nhttps://www.youtube.com/@shabazzpalaces206/videos",
