As music lovers we have always dreamed of creating an album of our own. Unfortunately, neither of us are able to create music of our own: so, we decided to make a challenge to create an album based off of two different artists and see who can make the better album. Hopefully we flexed our album curating expertise adequately!

As hard as it may be to believe, we like to listen to a lot of music; sometimes we don't get a chance to show love to all of our favorite artists. So, in this (semi regular) series we decide to try to show some love and appreciation to some artists that may otherwise get skipped over.

If you grew up in the 2000s there's absolutely no way you haven't heard a T-Pain or Akon song; their music was basically inescapable. That being said, it's not too far fetched to say they are some of the greatest hit makers of our generation. Bearing that in mind, we decided why not pit them against each other in a hit battle and see who comes out on top. Hopefully our choices did their hitmaking abilities justice!

Kanye West and Jay Z are without a doubt up there with the greatest rappers to ever exist; it goes without saying that we have an insane amount of love for both of them. In this episode, we attempt to express our love for them through a small tournament. In the tournament we try to come to a consensus on who has the best song (spoiler alert we did NOT completely agree). Hopefully we did a good job with the bracket and expressing our opinions; let us know your thoughts on social media (@channel86cast on TikTok, Twitter, and Instagram)!

Last decade was nothing short of amazing for hip hop, having no shortage of incredible songs as well as many many hits. Growing up in the 2010s, it seemed like rap was inescapable on the radio. In this episode, Jigga and Maestro attempt to come to a consensus as to what the single best rap hit from last decade was; and what better way to do that than with a tournament! Let us know if our pick were valid and what you guys would have picked if you did your own bracket!

In most of our episodes, it seems like we mostly agree on everything. So, we decided why not take an episode and spend the entirety of it debating opinions we don't agree on? In this episode, Jigga and Maestro go head to head trying to convince each other they are right. Did they reach a common ground, or did they just agree to disagree?

Snoh Aalegra is one of those rare artists that have never failed to deliver an amazing quality project. Needless to say, we were nothing short of excited to hear what she had to offer with her newest release "TEMPORARY HIGHS IN THE VIOLET SKIES." Did this album live up to her previous releases, or did she disappoint us for the first time? Tune in to this week's episode to find out!

This year has definitely been... interesting music wise. We got a lot more music than the year prior, but how much of it actually stuck with us and is really worth returning to? Is this year shaping up to be better than last year or much of the same boring nonsense? This decade didn't really start off the strongest music wise but it seems like it might be picking up a bit now that artists are actually dropping music. Check out this episode to get to know our detailed opinion on music so far this year!

Tyler, The Creator has more than already proved to us that he is an incredible artist worth looking out for; so it goes without saying that we were excited to hear he was dropping another album. As a matter of fact, excited may be an understatement. Tyler hasn't disappointed with an album drop for nearly half a decade, so we definitely had some decently high expectations for his latest release, "Call Me If You Get Lost." Did this project end up living up to these expectations or did he fall flat with this release? Tune in to this episode and find out!
