August 27, 2020 Review: "Rhymes Like Orange" feat. Rocky Snyda
Brooklyn emcee, Rocky Snyda, feels like the time is now. After focusing exclusively on performing and touring to create awareness for her content, the Flatbush native uses this downtime to craft the sounds of tomorrow on her 2-track EP, "Rhymes Like Orange". We discuss this along with her two earlier releases, her forthcoming project, "Try Pop", and how her background in theatre lends to her performative art. To keep in touch with all things Rocky, connect with her on social media (@rockysnyda) & www.rockysnyda.com.

August 27, 2020 002: "This Is The Remix"
This episode back we talk Netflix's "The Remix" documentary, chronicling the hardships of some of the most prominent Black brands and cultural curators in their fight to exist. We give Misa Hylton her flowers for all that that she's done in making generations after her feel comfortable to show skin in the game. We talk about where "exclusivity" can go wrong and how "white adjacency" isn't too far behind it.
For our first segment of The Reach Out, where we highlight an artist doing amazing work in our community, we discuss Anthony Herron, Jr. (@Flow349) and how he a group of men came together to protect Jennifer McLeggan. Over the past few months, she has been targeted by racists neighbors in her community and ignored by city officials in her quest for justice. Lastly, we talk our Run & Rotate for the week, giving you a few songs to add into your daily listening. All this and more...on RTT.

July 12, 2020 Review: Westside Gunn, "Pray For Paris"
"GRRRRRRRRRTTTTT! Or whatever Westside said". The Griselda front-man delivered an AOTY contender early on and the team sit down and talk about where it ranks among the camp's flurry of projects in the last six months. From some scene-stealing features to some memorable verses, PFP gets put on trial today. Will it stand up or have to have several seats...in the bleachers?! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

July 12, 2020 001: "Hello, Brown Skin Lady"
Our first episode back has tackling some heavy topics with the subject of HBO Max's documentary, On The Record. The controversial piece of work was the talk of the town once Oprah jumped ship, so the team had to sit down and watch. We discuss the stories of the Black women affected and the sordid story of hip-hop, in its relation to the objectification of women of color.
Talib Kweli is a troll. We all know this. With his "Blackstar" days behind him, he's put down the mic and picked up a keyboard to do his talking and Black women happen to be on the other end of his words. No bueno. Verzuz has been a bright spot for all of us in the music community during these times of distance. Cosi & Uchechi talk the good, the bad, and the ugly that Swizz & Timbo have offered us so far.

It feels good to be back! We took a little break to get some things in order, but we open up our third season with a great guest, Chris Stylez, of #TrappinAnonymous Podcast. Chris walks through the behind the scenes as to what led up to the landmark moment for him. We talk about the show and it's importance to the culture. This is one episode that's bigger than music. We welcome back Mattoo into the fold and discuss the new releases by Eminem and whether we are / aren't impressed. We touch on Kanye's storied return back into our hearts and if what we need from him to make us believers. Obviously, the episode isn't complete without some Drake banter, so consider that one a bonus!

August 24, 2018 Season 2, Episode 23: “Scared Money Don’t…” feat. @lowkey
This week, we sit down with LowKey of Beats1 Radio and discuss his new podcast, 'Do It Scared', along with the emergence of his other ventures, Trap Karaoke & D'ussepalooza, within the urban landscape. We discuss how to start a brand, while keeping your integrity and value. With Nicki on the prowl, eager to blame any and everyone for her album "failure", we discuss how she can get back to the basics and how "Barbz" are essential, but detrimental to her growth. We touch on many different things, from top 5's (again) and ultimately...how historically sound is Hov's career, when you really break it down.

August 17, 2018 Season 2, Episode 22: “Need I Remind You?”
After a lengthy hiatus, Nicki Minaj has returned with her fourth album, Queen. We sit down with Jade of MVMT & #LetMePutYouOn, and Brooklyn lyricist, Wordsmiff, to discuss the impact of this album and what this body of work does to her catalogue. Often women of darker color and "normal" body-types are bypassed in the industry and we dive into the social climate that promotes that. Why are fairer skin women more successful, when marketed, than women of darker complexion? Lastly, Wordsmiff walks us through his realization of his purpose in the game and how he intends on making a mark.

August 10, 2018 Season 2, Episode 21: “Stop Trying To Be Pods”
YG & Travis Scott both dropped their third albums this week to polarizing reviews, some good and some not so much. However, both are extremely formulaic artists who are constantly perfecting their craft. Max & Cosi sit down to discuss “Astroworld”, “Stay Dangerous” and even sneak in a little white rapper music while Uchechi wasn’t looking, as we get into “Swimming”, the new album by Mac Miller. Lastly, we take a reader question discussing the potential crippling impact Kendrick could be having on T.D.E.

This week’s episode, we sit down with Joshua Perez aka FazeFunk, one half of the Talking Sh*t Podcast to discuss the new relases of Dave East’s “Karma II” project and whether this serves a step forward or backward for the Harlem native’s career. We analyze his trajectory and discuss the things necessary for his longevity. Lastly, with the Carter V rumored to be on the horizon this year, we respond to a viewer question about whether Lil’ Wayne is truly “the best rapper alive”. We debate his commercial successes and failures, his legacy as an innovator and what we owe to his career.
