This week on IF I LET YOU TELL IT, Mike kicks things off by breaking down his trip to Phoenix, including a strange airport experience that sets the tone early. From there, we jump back into the 2000s R&B March Madness tournament as more albums get eliminated and the bracket starts getting real competitive. Later in the episode, we dive into a review of Alex Isley's When The City Sleeps, unpacking the sound, the vibe, and what it adds to today's R&B landscape. We also react to the announcement of Tank and Tyrese hitting the VERZUZ stage, talking expectations and what that matchup could bring. On the relationship side, Jodi sparks a deeper conversation about why people don't always like the partners they choose, leading into a real breakdown of limerence vs. love and how we define both. To close things out, we talk about closure, what it really means, whether it's necessary, and how it shows up when dealing with an ex. All that and more in another episode full of music and explosions!
