In this episode, we start with a rave review of James by Percival Everett. This novel, a brilliant reimagining of Mark Twain's Adventures of Huckleberry Finn from Jim's perspective, absolutely blew me away. It’s a five-star read in my book, and I believe more people should pick it up. We then briefly touch on the movie American Fiction, which is ba…

in this episode, we kick things off with an honest review of Drake and PartyNextDoor’s new album, Some Sexy Songs 4 U. I break down why I think it’ll hit number 1 next week, but still land a solid 6/10—good, but not quite as groundbreaking as it could’ve been. I compare it to the GNX rating and discuss how Kendrick Lamar did more with fewer tracks,…

In this episode, I dive into the Super Bowl aftermath, celebrating the Eagles’ big win and sharing my thoughts on Kendrick Lamar’s halftime performance.

In this episode, I unpack Kendrick Lamar's GNX, an album that feels surprisingly safe and comfortable—perhaps too comfortable. Coming off the intense energy of the Drake beef and the hit Not Like Us, Kendrick’s GNX seems to take the easy route, opting for a simplified West Coast hip-hop sound instead of pushing boundaries as he’s known for. Was thi…

This episode is my thoughts on the current climate and wave of content creation. This is nothing like Season 3 Ep 21 "Confessions of a Content Whore" where I discuss my journey with making content and split between quitting podcast and making it in the real world.
