Hi everyone! This week I am talking about the slow (but kind of fast) decline of Kanye West's mental stability. Throughout the years he has been involved in numerous scandals, but lately it seems as though he needs some help. One thing I failed to mention is that he made some wack comments regarding Harriet Tubman this past week and was shut down but one of the living relatives of Tubman. Serves him right! While his music is good, at this point, we as consumers should no longer line his pockets. Can we finally cancel him and force him to get help?

Hey guys! Sorry I've been MIA, I was on vacation, but I'm back and better than ever. I turned eighteen on May 16th and since then I have done some self-reflection and created a couple of goals for myself.  I know it's hard to be productive during quarantine, but just find one attainable goal that you can reach each day, and you will feel so much better. I hope you are staying safe and I hope you will enjoy this episode.
