Following a critically acclaimed debut, the second iteration of the album "White Power Outage" includes everything from classically-stylized Latin music to hip hop to spoken word. Nick Cooper, Karega Ani, and Michele Thibeaux are among the collaborators on the album, and they join Garrett (1:13:00) to unpack some of the music featured on the album as well as the sentiments and stories that inspired them. Scott offers a "sharp" that challenges concert hall "shushers", Garrett recounts his latest trip to New York, and the guys celebrate the sounds of Alicia Keys, Abel Selaocoe, Felix Mendelssohn, and more.
