It’s been a minute I know, but like we’ve all watched the news right? The Corona Virus has rocked many of our lives, so I hope you are washing your hands, staying inside, drinking your water, and hopefully, you have checked on all your people. That’s what I’ve been up to, hence why this took a week and a half to get out. I did want to share this episode and let y’all know, this may be the last episode for a bit. I don’t know how long a bit is, to be honest. We all are just playing it by ear at this point, but I love y’all this has been a great fourth season, and I will be back as soon as I can with more amazing guests, do not fret.

In the meantime, I did want to give you one parting episode and guess what, it’s all about great music and two great shows that you can watch during this time of social distancing. Also, it’s with one of my favorite people and podcast host, Christina Utley. Christina runs a podcast called Recaps and Receipts (Apple & Spotify) all about the first episodes of tv shows you should be watching, so go check that out.

Today’s featured shows and albums are:

We made it to episode 30! This week we’re back with a little review of The Photograph, but also how photographs and tangible memories tell stories that shape a legacy. My guest this week is, at this point a regular, Brittany Bellinger. We really go in-depth about our own attachments to tangible memories and storytelling, so this is one you don’t want to miss. If you haven’t seen the movie and you don’t want spoilers you should skip from about minute 20 to minute 50. If you want to follow Brittany, and you should you can find her on Instagram and Twitter or you can follow her book tube on Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube. You may or may not some a familiar face on there, who knows hehe. Enjoy!

This week I’m hanging with my guy Ish aka Ish, Ya Cousin, the Brooklyn rapper. I loved this conversation because Ish is one of the most brilliant people We talk about balance, what it means to seek success in life, how he feels as an artist in the current landscape of hip-hop, and how he thinks of Stevie Wonder and Lil’ Wayne as virtual mentors. Also in this episode, we chat a bit about Pop Smoke. It’s crazy to think since this recording he is gone. Rest easy Pop Smoke. Get into it and if you want to check him out on Apple or Spotify or see him live, hit up on Instagram and Twitter.

Happy Valentine’s Day! This week I thought why not share a little of what’s been on my heart and also give y’all something short to go with a full playlist (Apple & Spotify) of my favorite love songs because honestly I miss making music content. So here is little ol’ me reminding you love comes in all the forms and should always start with you loving you because you’re amazing! Enjoy the day and celebrate with those you love.

Happy February! We are back with something for the month of love, a highly requested episode on…DATING! My guest today is a friend of the show Josh Dickens (Twitter & Instagram) is back! We had a nice long conversation (starts around 19 minutes) and he lets us know how he feels about the current dating scene. To me, it’s a little bleak, but I’m hopeful, to him, he’s ready. We also both were doing the Unleashed 2020 21 days fast with our church that I mentioned last week with Clarence, and we give a little update on that. Listen, enjoy, and share. Let us know what you think, how do you feel about the state of the dating scene in 2020? Also, how are you spending your Valentine’s Day? Give us some ideas!

This week I sit down with my friend Clarence and talk about all things creativity and art. Clarence is an art dealer, creative strategist and is even about to make his own zine, which may or may not feature ya girl. I’ve known him now for almost 10 years and worked with him on some of his creative ventures. He’s brilliant trust me. You will really enjoy this talk all about his creative process with artists and how he even entered into this industry. To find out more on him and his work follow him on Instagram.

This week I got to sit down with the homie Rafael and talk about one of our favorite things, hip-hop. I’ve debated this dude and trust me he knows his stuff. We got into it about Kanye, the Big 3 (Drake, Kendrick, and J. Cole), and the new school. You can catch up with Rafael on Instagram and Twitter. I hope you enjoy!
