Happy Thanksgiving! This week the Need to Know crew sat down with Newburgh NY Emcee, Jacques Laine. Jacques opens up the stresses of balancing a full-time consultant career with Nike, while being a full-time rapper. Last week Savon strung some chords among our listeners with his comments about Lauryn Hill and Andre 3000 being Overrated, this week we let Jacques in on the conversation. Jacques also gives insight on how he has secured opportunities like going on tour for Dreamville's own "Cozz". Jacques Laine also decided to spit a freestyle for the crew, something you don't want to miss!

Episode 81 | "Link and Build"

A reintroduction. blankSLATE is what comes next for SaVon Slater, a clean canvas to reveal a voice he hasn't fully shown yet.

A culture and music commentary podcast going past the headline and past the algorithm to find a different lens on media, music, and everything happening within the culture. A return to the kind of podcasting that built the format, before the clip economy reduced every show to a moment. 

Two shows. One name.

The signature show drops weekly. Long-form episodes with rotating voices, slowing the headline down to read the fine print — bringing a lens the algorithm trains you to ignore.

"blankSLATE Radio" is the real-time companion, SaVon solo, reacting to the moment with the kind of perspective the lane is missing, shaped by the audience through mailbag submissions.

For people who want more than a hot take.
