Mendo Dope | James Loud Podcast EP#112

In this episode of the James Loud Podcast, James chops it up with the legendary duo Old E and Bleezy—the brothers behind Mendo Dope, one of the most respected names in the intersection of music and cultivation. Broadcasting straight out of Northern California, Mendo Dope has made a name for themselves not just through their outdoor grow knowledge, but by turning that lifestyle into a lyrical artform that resonates deeply with heads in the scene.

Known for recording music literally inside their garden, Mendo Dope brings authenticity to every bar and every bud. From growing monster outdoor plants to writing verses about soil biology, these two have built a movement rooted in culture, community, and the plant. In this conversation, they talk about their journey from the hills of Mendocino to stages across the country, the synergy between music and cultivation, and the trials they’ve faced along the way.

Whether you're into hip hop, heritage genetics, or just love stories from people who live and breathe the lifestyle, this episode has something for you. Tap in, light up, and vibe out with Mendo Dope and James Loud.
