Hosts Dope Knife and Linqua Franqa unpack the week's current events and newest music, from Georgia's stunning blue flip and their perceptions of this miracle from the ground, scored by Jim Jones' new track "Election"; to updates from the #EndSARS movement in Nigeria and the soulful tribute to those lost at the Lekki Toll Gate offered up by Burna Boy; to Drakeo the Ruler's release from jail, what it tells us about the prison industrial complex, and the feverish post-release studio time that gave birth to his new single "Fights Don't Matter." The hosts also speak with NPR music journalists Rodney Carmichael and Sidney Madden about their new podcast, Louder than a Riot, which explores the intersection between mass incarceration and Hip Hop.
