This week on IF I LET YOU TELL IT, we start with a review of Jack Harlow's new album Monica, which opens the door to a bigger discussion about white artists engaging with Black culture. Later in the episode, we reveal the Round 1 results of the 2000s R&B March Madness bracket, highlighting some of the early surprises and matchups for Round 2. We also take a nostalgic trip back to the first CD we ever owned, reflecting on what those early albums meant to us and how they helped shape our relationship with music. To close things out, we get into a conversation about women shooting their shot in dating, if it's overrated, or if it changes the dynamic between men and women. All that and more in another episode full of music and explosions.
