Zay Wop is back!!!! After 6 years Isaiah Rashad is back with his 3rd studio album 'THE HOUSE IS BURNING' (2:16) and it's heat!!! We were also able to see the latest from Disney starring Emily Blunt and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson in 'JUNGLE CRUISE' (14:24) as well as the latest from A24, David Lowery, and Dev Patel with 'THE GREEN KNIGHT' (30:11). We're sure everyone has heard of the current controversy between Scarlett Johansson and Disney regarding 'BLACK WIDOW' and Disney Plus and you know we had to break it down at least a little. 

It's been 25 years in the making but it's finally here! 'Space Jam: A New Legacy' (1:50) has landed in theaters and HBO Max! Lebron James joins up with the Looney Toons and we got to see what he could (or couldn't) do on the big screen. Also we were able to check out 'Escape Room: Tournament of Champions' (28:22), the sequel to the puzzle thriller starring Taylor Russell. And Netflix tried something new recently releasing 'Fear Street' (41:20), the 3 part horror/slasher film series based on the books from R.L stein. 

This week we were also joined by a good friend of ours Phil Hughes, the producer of an upcoming film titled 'Throuple' (56:35)

Throuple is a coming-of-age romcom that showcases a diverse group of young people exploring new answers to life's old questions of growing up & falling in love. It also champions local musicians, unleashing into the world a no-skips indie soundtrack rivaling the likes of "Garden State" & "Once." With a screenplay boasting finalist positions in The Academy Awards Nicholl Fellowship, the Sundance Screenwriter's Lab, the Creative Capital Fund, and the Screencraft Fellowship, Throuple is a bold new take on the romantic comedy.

Last but certainly not least, RIP to the clown prince of Hip-Hop himself Biz Markie. A legend in his own right and a soul that will never be forgotten. Rest easy Biz.
