The Chop Up

What do we expect from black politicians vs. What should we expect from black politicians? How do we adjust to the new wave of black candidates and politicians representing black people across the country?

We start of the show with a quick segment called "Go Awf" and then jump into the Conscious Chop. The Gucci brand has many celebrities making some tough decisions. We discuss the latest battle between T. I. and Floyd Mayweather on how black folks should use their money.

Nobody likes to end friendships/relationships...but it is what it is. So we explore what the dealbreakers are, how we prefer to end relationships, the politics of cutting someone off, and whether "ghosting" is ok or nah.

Everybody has been talking about R. Kelly. We take a turn at exploring the expose' of his perverted and predatory behavior.

Between Lebron James, Angela Davis, Marc Lamont Hill, and many others, it appears that the new faces of American antisemitism are black. We ask if that's fair or foul, and how it got to this.

When the Big Chops were just Baby Chops... a hilarious Q&A that looks back at the TCU hosts as youngsters.

Just another CLEAR reason to listen to the show!!

Entertainment Chop- Court of Public Opinion- The recent drama in the media between Cardi B and Offset, and the bombshell news about Dwight Howard has us exploring the wild, wild world of exposure in pop culture.

Conscious Chop- This Land is MY Land- White South African farmers get kicked off their land. Are we finally witnessing reverse racism?

Political Chop- Trump, the Broken Clock- Donald Trump and company recently made some strides toward prison reform. But before we get too excited, we investigate what this really means.

This week-

Conscious Chop- H. Dubya- Black people around the country recently mourned the passing of late former president, George H. W. Bush. Our only question was why?

Entertainment Chop- Keep the "Change"- In an era when your past social media posts can be used against you, we recently saw comedian, Kevin Hart, learn the hard way. But is the way he was treated fair or foul?

Social Chop- Not So Meek- With his recent release from prison, rapper, Meek Mill, is the new voice and face of prison reform. But is he qualified enough to lead this type of movement?
