It's been a long time/we shouldn'tve left you/without some more podcast to listen to.... And just like that we're back like we never left. A lot of things have changed, but ya boys are still the same. Let's get it goin' with episode 18 of the Say No More Podcast. Starting this one off on a sad note RIP to Jahseh Onfro aka XXXtentacion as well as Jimmy Wopo from Pittsburg. June 18th was a bad day for the culture of Hip-Hop. Now that May 25th to June 23rd is over and the smoke has cleared, an apology needs to be given to Kanye West. It has been a G.O.O.D. Summer and Def Jam is back on top. We drop a few opinions on these evens, but they really deserve a whole episode, per album. Good Friday’s felt like Def Jam Survival of the iLLest CD /Tour, remember the bonus green cover and CD? Who won the battle LL RipperStrikes Back vs 2nd Round Knockout? What's next for Pusha T vs. Drake? Never meet your heroes or favorite celebs, MJ (Michael Jordan) vs Hip-Hop.
