Thank you for your patience.

Empty Crates returns, and after a quick explanation for the hiatus from ELJAY, the guys get right back to discussing the things they missed, starting with the 50th Anniversary of Hip-Hop's Grammy celebration (13:38) and much more. The guys also discuss a few albums, such as their thoughts on Nicki Minaj's "Pink Friday 2" (42:25), the surprise review of Gucci Mane and B.G.'s latest, "Choppers and Bricks" (76:00), and Aesop Rock's "Integrated Tech Solutions" (98:00). There's other stuff as always to listen for, so enjoy your time back in the room for Empty Crates!

Objectively speaking, this feels like another conversation between friends, but that's how we prefer it. Today's episode has the guys running through a few random things from the week (7:05), such as the bet between Don Trip and Starlito, if Kanye and Ty$' collaboration album is actually going to drop Friday (we wouldn't place money on that), and an artist we wouldn't dare list here for ANY reason because her fanbase is... different. Afterwards, the guys jump into the main topic for the day; their favorite five projects from TDE (52:45). There's a nice mix between silly and serious for this episode, so enjoy!

We covered a lot of new music last week, so it's only right we talk about the most accurately compiled list of all time in 2023... Spotify's Wrapped! The guys discuss how right/wrong their lists turned out (9:09), then they give the nod to their favorite projects of the year (59:33) and who they want to hear from in 2024 (89:05). But as always, there's several detours and random moments for you to enjoy along the way, such as why Lil' Wayne belongs in your top ten, how to properly appreciate the three categories of Eminem's career, the real reason Rick Ross left 85 South, and much, much more. Enjoy this one!

In today's episode, the homie Paul (Hashim) hitches a ride for the entire episode and chaos immediately ensues on an unrated scale. Music-wise, the guys dive into Busta Rhyme's latest album release, "BlockBusta", which is executive produced by Pharrell, Timbaland, and Swizz Beatz (5:14). They also take time to show appreciation, perspective, and their respective tin-foil theories on Little Brother's incredible documentary, "May The Lord Watch." (47:10) Lastly, Gut brings another interesting topic to the table for this week's Elimination Chamber (1:21:25). Of course, there's much more to listen for (such as the Funk Volume vs Horseshoe Gang beef, the time someone here prank-called 9th Wonder, J. Cole's true reason for riding bicycles, etc) as always, so enjoy it!

We picked a good time to start a podcast, huh? Episode 2 is LOADED with topics for your enjoyment. Andre 3000's "New Blue Sun" is out, and the guys address if that helps or hurts his chances in the G.O.A.T conversation...and if people are giving him too much credit (2:15). The guys also give their thoughts on Drake's latest "Scary Hours" drop (24:41), Lil' Wayne and 2 Chainz' "Welcome 2 Collegrove" (35:47), Jeezy's "I Might..." (44:04), and yet another chaotic elimination list featuring some of your "favorite" rappers (56:50). There's much more included to listen for, including a Lupe Fiasco disagreement, an edited/uncut segment that goes exactly how you think it goes, and a Mr. Magic appreciation moment. Come rock with us!

In the official first episode of this thing they've created, D Gut and K1NG ELJAY introduce what's actually happening (0:00), they break down the science behind Nas and the "math" themes in his music (5:18), and somehow get through an elimination game featuring nine classic albums (17:58). And, since at the time, the podcast still didn't have a name, they decided to brainstorm that live, too (56:28). Be sure to rate and follow the podcast as it'll be dropping every week!
