We at Funk Gumbo Radio are fortunate to be friends with a very funny and

highly innovative writer and self-animator Leesa Dean. We are also extremely

pleased to endorse Leesas new and very funny animated Urban/Hip-Hop

Web Series called ChilltownTV and its equally as humorous spinoff called

Leles Ratchet Advice Show. What we like the most about ChilltownTV is

that it is not merely a parody of popular negative trends in Urban/Hip-Hopculture. Leesa has created well-written and timely digital vignettes of original,

ambitious and outspoken characters interacting in their crazy world ofHood

Hi-jinks. Leesa also knows how to poke fun at real multi-platinum Hip-Hop

stars like super producer Scott Storch. And whereas some limited-animation

Web Series might focus on one extended joke or story, Leesa easily switches

back and forth from multiple characters and engaging storylines in her witty

and adult ChilltownTV episodes. Currently, you can check out Episode #4 of

ChilltownTV that was released on February 5, 2013. So without a doubt wereally want all our domestic and international Funk Gumbo Radio listeners to

take a break and checkout this Web site link: http://www.chilltowntv.com for

ChilltownTV and Leles Ratchet Advice Show. And we hope our fans

keep enjoying the great and diverse funk/rock/Hip-Hop music we are playing.
