Not All Hood (NAH) with Malcolm-Jamal Warner & Candace Kelley

In this explosive episode Malcolm-Jamal Warner and Candace Kelley sit down with DJ Envy (Rashawn Casey) and his wife Gia Casey for one of their most vulnerable conversations yet. Together for over 30 years and married for 24, the Caseys talk about love, loss, parenting, rebuilding trust after infidelity, and surviving the dangers of fame.

DJ Envy opens up about how money and fame can corrupt people and how meeting Gia young helped him stay grounded. The couple discusses the importance of communication in marriage, evolving together through life's stages, and maintaining trust within a family unit. Gia drops powerful insights on raising confident, emotionally safe children with open dialogue—even when it gets uncomfortable.

They also tackle the challenges of raising Black children in white spaces, generational parenting differences, and why overprotectiveness isn’t paranoia—it's preparedness. With stories about sex education sparked by a bloody condom discovery, the dangers of judgmental parenting, and the weight of social media on Black culture, this episode is raw, real, and absolutely essential.

Artificial Intelligence isn’t just changing our work—it’s reshaping who we are. In this compelling Not All Hood conversation, Malcolm-Jamal Warner and Candace Kelley dive into the unseen influence of AI on our creativity, our thinking, and our emotional lives.

As AI tools make it easier for anyone to sound brilliant, the question becomes: what makes us truly original? They discuss how tech like auto-tune and AI-generated writing have blurred the lines between human and machine-made, and why the real power lies with those who know how to use AI without losing themselves.

From students fiercely defending their AI-aided essays to professors requiring handwritten work just to ensure authenticity—this episode questions what ownership, authorship, and creativity really mean in a digital world. We also tackle the shifting landscape of DEI (Diversity, Equity & Inclusion) and how language and branding around it are being reimagined in real-time.

🎧 Tap in for a mind-bending discussion that mixes tech, ethics, education, and culture in only the way Not All Hood can. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The trio explore emotional intelligence, performative femininity, dating myths, and the shifting dynamics of love in modern Black relationships. With surgical precision, Mason unpacks why many women are struggling in relationships—not because of a lack of options, but a lack of identity. From girlfriend traps to the misunderstood power of energy and presence, this episode is a wake-up call for both men and women on how to lead with self-love, intention, and wholeness. April even assigns some relationship homework… if you're brave enough to do the work.

In this enlightening episode of Not All Hood, Malcolm-Jamal Warner, Candace Kelley, and guest Jamila Norman—urban farmer, food activist, and host of HBO Max’s Homegrown—dive deep into the hidden costs of eating clean, the systemic erasure of Black farmers, and how corporate agriculture manipulates our food choices. Jamila shares her journey from growing up Caribbean to building Patchwork City Farms in Atlanta, fostering fresh food access and sustainable agriculture. The conversation unpacks how engineered foods, misleading plant-based options, and privatized food systems impact communities of color. The hosts and Jamila also discuss the importance of reconnecting with farming traditions, the challenges of urban gardening, why American grocery culture is broken, and how creating generational health through conscious eating is as critical as wealth-building. Whether you're a parent wanting healthier choices, an aspiring urban farmer, or someone rethinking their food habits, this episode will challenge what you think you know about food—and the systems controlling it. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In this explosive and thought-provoking episode of Not All Hood, we’re joined by Laron Gaskins, creator of the "Broken Traditions" podcast, to challenge the narratives that have shaped Black culture for generations.

Hip hop’s obsession with pain and power

“P*$$y rap” and the complexity of Black women reclaiming agency

Policing, profiling, and why many Black people brace themselves differently

Why we’re harder on our own leaders like Obama

In this powerful and urgent episode of Not All Hood, Malcolm-Jamal Warner and Candace Kelley sit down with viral rapper and political educator YellowPain to unpack the systemic roots of voter apathy, the complexity of political language, and why local elections matter more than we think. Known for his groundbreaking video “My Vote Don’t Count,” YellowPain breaks down how propaganda, lack of education, and generational disillusionment have left many Black Americans disconnected from the political process.

He shares how his personal wake-up call came from a cousin running for Congress and how that conversation sparked a mission to educate through music. The episode also explores what it really means to "go back to Africa," the uncomfortable truths about identity and belonging, and the importance of raising the next generation of politically literate leaders through early education and civic exposure.

From Dayton, Ohio to Ghana and beyond, YellowPain reminds us: if we don’t show up, we lose our power. It’s not about just voting—it’s about knowing why you’re voting and who truly affects your daily life. A must-watch for anyone seeking clarity, accountability, and transformation in their community.
