In the latest episode of Clock Radio Speakers, Armond and Doc talk about the reaction toTake Care, what they think of claims that it’s “soft”, and talk about why hip-hop fans have a problem dealing with music that doesn’t fit into typically stereotypes. But that’s not all – other topics touched on range from the thugification of R&B, whether or not Pitbull is ‘hip-hop’, and if it’s considered okay to make songs about drunk dialing (hint: don’t do it just because Drake did).

In this episode of Clock Radio Speakers, Doc and Armond go in-depth on Drake’s new album Take Care. They debate everything from Drake’s career up to this point, what they like and don’t like about the album, and what’s next for Drake.

After well received podcats looking back on the careers of OutKast and Nas, Armond and Doc knew they had to revisit one of the biggest discographies in hip-hop – Jay-Z.

In today’s hip-hop there is a new crop of artists emerging. Some have used traditional methods like co-signs from veterans & record deals as a means for exposure. Others have used the internet, both typically & creatively, to corner & cater to their market despite a large number of fans that still have no clue who they are. Doc & Armond discuss whether some of these MCs will have long lasting careers, or if they “won’t be around next year” – Craig Mack(c).

Armond & special co-host Rich Tunes break down all the cyphers from the BET Hip-Hop Awards. Who had the best verse? Who stood out? Who was disappointing? Who would we like to see in future cyphers? Why are there even awards?
