In this episode, Ernie C, guitarist and co-founder of Body
Count, joins the show to talk about the band’s fierce new album Merciless,
his 50-year friendship with Ice-T, the legacy of “Cop Killer,” and working with
legends like Tony Iommi, David Gilmour, and Brian May.

We explore how Ernie and Ice-T formed Body Count in South
Central LA, shook the music industry with their raw, political style, and how
Ernie’s career as a producer led him to work with Black Sabbath on Forbidden.
This episode is packed with stories from decades of metal history, from
Lollapalooza to Pink Floyd reinterpretations.
