Very rarely do you receive a Kanye, TDE, Nas, Beyonce & Hov release in the same year, but we’ve recieved it in the same month. June has spoiled us like never before and the group talks about the latest offerings from the latter three. We discuss the return of Jay Rock to the fold after a few years away; the "Everything is Love" & "NASIR" projects and their respective influences on the industry. Are we satisfied? Disappointed? Inspired? You'll have to listen to find out. However, all is not in great spirits with the untimely passing of XXXTentacion from gun violence. We discuss his legacy and how social media & the industry still have so far to go.

The act of co-signing and speaking up for Kanye has become an arduous for most music connoisseurs; from the 'MAGA'-scandal to the recent 'Donda House' fiasco, it's often difficult to separate the man from the music. In this episode, we try to. Update: Drake still has not responded to "The Story of Adidon" + J.Prince has gone on "Drake-xplaining" tour. However, most importantly we discuss "Ye" and Kanye's return to music after over two years and we breakdown this year's best projects so far! It is June.
