There’s a winter vortex headed our way for the holiday, but we still got work to do. Rory and Demaris had a run in with a legend at the Brandy and Monica concert. Complex listed their best albums of the century so far, and Rory ain’t mad at it. Mal might have a problem with their pick for the number one album though. WhoSampled was acquired by Spotify, but Mal got an autistic friend who could single handedly do the work themselves. Plus, Rory and Mal didn’t know Rich Da Kid had game like THAT, Julez Santana probably can’t read the description to this episode, and a caller wants to know all about living in NYC #volume

Usually we got a guest for y'all on Thursdays, but this week we're flipping the schedule. Seasonal depression is real, but we got you with a new episode earlier in the week than usual. Usher suing Bryan-Michael Cox has Rory interrogating Mal about DVSN's "If I Get Caught" music video and where the funds came from. There is no reason why anybody should be throwing down at a Leon Thomas concert. Mal translates for Wale 'cause he wasn't standing ten toes down during his Breakfast Club interview. Plus, Mal thinks New Edition might be the greatest music group of all-time, but can they win a Verzuz against the Jackson 5? #volume

Rory and Mal debate who would win a Verzuz between Tony Yayo and Memphis Bleek. Mal doesn’t understand the backlash Pusha T is receiving for his IG caption announcing his 2nd child. Plus, Anthony Joshua vs Jake Paul might be the final time anyone cares about a Jake Paul fight, and should women approaching men be the norm? #volume

It’s been a few days since The Grammy’s released their nominations, but we got y’all. It looks like Leon Thomas might sweep up all the R&B categories. Rory thinks Clipse should bag a Grammy or two, but Mal knows the committee already has their mind made up. Max B is finally out, and the hood showed up for him. Outkast was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, and Rory approved of all the tribute performances…except for one. Summer Walker’s new project drops Friday, and her rollout is genius. Diddy got caught drinking in prison, and we don’t blame him. We don’t shame Kim K for failing the BAR, cause we just tried and that sh*t wasn’t easy. Plus, the guys send their representatives to answer our voicemail #volume
