Put You On Pod

I do a track by track review of Brent’s new album Wasteland, discuss being a huge fan since day one, supporting DMV artists, tackle the surprisingly deep subject matter on the project and name my favorite songs

I discuss my favorite albums so far in 2022, being overwhelmed by the volume of releases this year, briefly review Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers, the Drake Kendrick cold war, and the resurgence of the Blog Era.

I discuss the Durk and Youngboy beef, Von’s complicated legacy, new albums from the Chicago pair and the strange state of modern Hip Hop beef

I discuss the impact Juice Wrld, Pop Smoke and King Von had on me during the pandemic, posthumous album outrage and my newfound love for NY drill music *****Note this is actually Episode 5 instead of 4. Excuse the poor audio quality

I rank my favorite women in R&B, what draws me to each in particular and the never-ending wait for SZA’s next album

In this episode I discuss the misleading nature of the term “SoundCloud rapper”, the evolution of the Playboi Carti sound and the array of artists I’ve discovered using underground platforms.

I discuss the pros and cons of being a Kanye fan, the bittersweet Jeen-Yuhs documentary and a do retrospective on the Pusha/Ye/Drake beef

Am I getting too old for hip hop? The Deluxe are bonus episodes where I air out my grievances with this genre I love so much. Balanced as all things should be. Please excuse my loud air conditioning in the background
