Hotline blings, rooms belonging to Marvin, leaving a plan up to God, Drake is known for many things. Aubrey Graham is the focus on this week's B-Side on Groupies. We dig right into his legacy, his current reign on pop culture, and what he is going to do next in his superstar career!

We got energy, gotta lotta energy, got a lot of energy for this pod. Sorry, bad pun, and I am continuing to make it worse by writing this very sentence.

The Groupies are BACK in full force, talking about Drake's master mixtape, If You're Reading This It's Too Late. It's the project that put Drake into legendary meme status and continued his ascension to the superstar he is today. 

In our B-Side this week, we're talking everything JT. From his new album and where it stands, to how he first got started, Austin from the Pinned podcast joins Hannah and Grant from Groupies to dig into it all!

We grab our Suits and Ties, and take a look in Mirrors as the Groupies dig into an absolute classic from Justin Timberlake, his 20/20 Experience masterpiece. Helping the Groupies out is Austin, from the Pinned pro wrestling podcast, with Grant and Hannah, as they all take a deep dive into the body of work by JT.

In this episode, we dig into the state of musicals in 2019, both on the big screen and up on the state! Special guest Chadd, who brought us the Hamilton soundtrack in the A-Side this week, leads the conversation with his experiences in musicals, and the rest of the crew chimes in!

In this episode of Groupies, we bring on Chadd from many other Andmore Media podcasts, to talk about HAMILTON: AN AMERICAN MUSICAL! We hear all about the background of the musical, its impact on the Groupies, and much more. Dig into the award-winning performance, with us!

In this riveting episode of Groupies, we dissect what exactly a playlist is in 2019. We document all of the successful Spotify playlists, like RapCaviar and Mint, and discuss what it means for artists to get placement there. We also dig into our own use cases for playlists and we how use them for our own listening! Let us know if you have any playlists you want to share with us, over at @groupies_pod on Twitter!

The Groupies have a rotation playlist they update daily. This is the episode in which we talk about all of those songs, albums, and artists that make their way onto the playlist!

Among the playlist are indie stars like Maggie Rogers, hip-hip phenoms like 21 Savage, and a little bit of mystery with small artists like St. Panther.

It's a topic oft not talked about. Where is folk music going into 2019? We got the chance to talk about a genre that's slowly re-innovating itself after decades of being pigeonholed as acoustic music. We're digging into it all on this episode of Groupies!

Have you ever booked an Airbnb and got so inspired by your stay, you wrote an album about your stay and travels? None of us at Groupies have done this, but George Ezra did, and it churned out a fantastic album as a result.

Tom's personal classic this week is George Ezra's sophomore follow up, Staying at Tamara's. Considered mainly folk pop, the album was a mainstay for Tom and Grant's rotations and we get into what makes the album click in this A-Side!
