On today’s episode of A Tribe Called Best, I’m getting real about depression, the breakthroughs I’m having in therapy, and the messy progress of learning to cope without pretending everything is fine. I share some of the tools my therapist gave me, the moments that still hit a little too hard, and a few random things that make hard to smile some days.

This one’s ain't no pity party — it’s more like group therapy with my besties.
Because you prolly been here too.
Are you in therapy?
Thinking about starting?
Is this seasonal depression, or am i just regular sad?

I talk about how I’m planning to move forward, what’s helping, what’s not, so you can join the conversation. How are you coping? What got you through your last slump? What helped you climb the dark?
If you relate — even a little — you’re not alone. Let me know.

On this episode of A Tribe Called Best, ItsMeKnowlo asks the question nobody in Kanye’s entourage seems brave enough to ask:

We’re talking about:

• The cosplaying as a Nazi / KKK member / Confederate flag fashion era
• The troll phase where racism was treated like merch
• The fallout he caused inside his own community

Now Ye is smiling, apologizing, showing up to meetings like he’s on a forgiveness press tour. But what’s the endgame?

Is Kanye:

• Trying to get his billionaire status back?
• Trying to restructure the brand?
• Trying to prove he’s “stable” again so he can be around his kids more?
• Or is this just another PR side quest before the next chaos drop?

We dig into motives, money, power, image rehab, and whether people can forgive someone who only apologizes when the consequences hit their bank account.

Besties… if Ye’s apology was a coupon, it expired three scandals ago.

On this episode of A Tribe Called Best, ItsMeKnowlo goes full rant mode about the U.S. government playing Hunger Games with 42 MILLION SNAP recipients starting November 1, 2025. That’s right—while Democrats and MAGA Republicans argue over whether Americans deserve health care or should just rub dirt on their wounds and hope for the best, regular people are about to lose:
1.Health care
2.Paychecks (federal workers, good luck!)
3.FOOD. As in, literal nutrition.

We’ve reached a new level of stupidity when politicians are like:
“What if we solve our disagreement by… starving the poor?”
In this episode, I’m asking the obvious questions no one in Congress seems to care about:
•Why are we punishing civilians for politicians beefing?
•How is taking away FOOD an acceptable negotiation tactic?
•And how is it 2025 and we’re debating whether humans deserve to eat?
If you’re a human with organs and a digestive system, you’re gonna wanna listen.

"BESTIES" — do me a favor:

Tell the algorithm that this show deserves to be fed even if the government says the rest of us don’t.

In this episode of A Tribe Called Best, I sit down to unpack the controversy surrounding Tyler, the Creator and the allegations of anti-Blackness. We go beyond the headlines — what is anti-Blackness? How do we define it in our culture? And when we scream “cancel” and pull our support from one black person, what are we really saying?
We explore how we sometimes carry out the cancel culture in our own community, throwing people out while welcoming in outsiders without question. If we’re going to be serious about accountability, we’ve got to learn how to look in the mirror. We’ve got to understand how — as a culture — we can champion thieves, culture vultures, and leeches, but cannibalize our own when the spotlight gets messy.
This episode isn’t just about one person. It’s about the big picture: who we allow in, who we push out, and what we lose when we confuse culture-sharing with authenticity and allow harmful people outside our circle to slide. Let’s stop hurting ourselves more than the so-called “problem” ever could.
Join me as I tell the story, break it down, and leave you with a verdict — because we’re the tribe that thrives, Besties. ✊🏽

In this episode of A Tribe Called Best, I go on a full-blown rant after a YouTube commenter calls me a coward — all because we didn’t share the same opinion. 🥴

We talk about the wild world where doing good gets you dragged, and the people doing dirt seem to thrive. From internet tough guys to moral hypocrisy, I break down why “doing the right thing” feels like a losing game — but maybe that’s exactly the point.

 Tap in for some real talk, a few laughs, and a healthy dose of cynicism.

 Drop your thoughts in the comments — do good people really finish last?

On this episode of A Tribe Called Best, ItsMeKnowlo’s bitchin’ about Benny the Butcher and his one-man war against… nerds. Yeah, apparently it’s “gangster” now to beef with people who go to work and pay taxes on time instead recreational jail and bullets & gun smoke.

ItsMeKnowlo’s had it with rappers who swear by street codes like they’re commandments carved in crack rock—and then get mad when civilians don’t play by the same rules. Spoiler alert: regular people don’t care about the “honor” of the streets. We care about Wi-Fi signals and gas prices.

Tune in for a hilarious, cynical breakdown of why gangsters/rapper need to stop promoting crime like it’s a lifestyle brand and start praising the people (the consumer)that got you were you are.

This episode of A Tribe Called Best is special — my very first guest joins the tribe! Meet Foes, the graphic designer and co-creative director of ATCB. He comes bearing gifts, fresh energy, and a whole lot of banter. We trade stories about growing up as LA natives, share a wild Nipsey Hussle story, clown on being a “brokester” (aka broke life problems), and wrap it all up with some hilarious Young Thug slander.

It’s jokes, wit, and real talk — exactly what you expect from A Tribe Called Best, just with double the chaos this time.

👍🏽 If you’re into hip hop culture, Nipsey Hussle stories, LA life observations, or just want to hear two broke creatives talk slick, this episode’s for you.

In this episode of A Tribe Called Best, I take you inside the wild second part of my ruptured bicep journey. From waking up at 4:45 AM and heading to the hospital, to receiving an encrypted phone call, witnessing what felt like a “divine government moment,” meeting the nurse, anesthesiologist, and surgeon, and finally being knocked out for surgery — I break down the entire experience. I share what it was like to wake up with my bicep repaired, struggle through recovery (including trying to dip my fries), and still make it to my son’s 5th birthday party the same day.

👉🏽 If you’ve ever wondered what surgery, anesthesia, and recovery really feel like, this episode is for you.

In this episode of A Tribe Called Best, I share the real-life story of how I ruptured my bicep while playing with my 5-year-old son at the park. From the moment I caught him jumping off the jungle gym, to walking home in pain, urgent care visits, X-rays, medication, being sent to the ER, seeing a specialist, and finally facing surgery — I break down the entire experience. I also talk about the fear, frustration, and anxiety of being operated on as a husband, father, and regular guy.

👉🏽 If you’ve ever dealt with a sports injury, torn bicep, or ER scare, this episode is for you.

In this episode of A Tribe Called Best, hosted by It’s Me, Knowlo, I share a conversation I had with a wealthy woman who schooled me on the “struggles” of being rich in California. Imagine having two houses, a driveway full of cars, passive income, endless free time—and still complaining about how hard it is to spend money because of yellow tape and state bureaucracy. Meanwhile, I’m out here slinging mail in rain, hail, sleet, snow, and overtime just to keep my head above water.

She reminded me how tough California life can be when the weather is perfect, the beach is blocks away, and your biggest stress is which home to remodel. Oh, and did I mention? She’s MAGA. Apparently, Trump still hasn’t made her life great again—guess the struggle is real after all.

This episode is a cynical peek into the upside-down world of rich people problems, where luxury becomes a burden, and privilege somehow feels like oppression.
