The trio of Alana, Xavier, and DJ Marauder sit down with this week's guest, the legendary Sango. Fresh off of joining Kaytranada on tour, he tells us what it was like for him being back on the road, how he got the opportunity to work with Frank Ocean, shares an opinion that he thinks may get him cancelled, and tells us his requirements for eating at a Popeyes. A very fun conversation to say the least. 

Welcome to the club!

This week Alana and Xavier (yes, Jorge has abandoned us once more) are joined by R&B artist and rising star, Kyle Dion. He shares his musical upbringings, how and why he moved to LA, and how his frequent collaborators Mars Today (Artist/Producer) and Riza (Stylist/Designer) helped him shaped the sounds and visions of his albums Suga and Sassy.  He also shares a very passionate message about why he consciously decides to evolve with each album rather than try to duplicate the success of the last one. 

Welcome to the club!

This week the trio discuss each of the last two albums released by Xavier, as they celebrate the first and second year anniversary of the releases. Alana recaps her trip to see Wizkid perform live in Miami and the crew answers questions at random from the book '3000 Questions About Me' .

Welcome to the club! This week, Alana and Xavier are excited by the return of Jay as he tells us all about his trip to Puerto Rico (involving 36oz mojitos). Alana heads to Miami for a wedding and Wizkid show which prompts a conversation about Wizkid's latest album and success. Xavier goes into full detail about how and why he left RCA, what he learned from the experience of being signed to a major label, and what his plans are going forward as an independent artist. 

The RCA discussion begins at the 13:37 mark.

This week, Alana and Xavier are joined by DJ Marauder to decide which movie has the best (hip hop/r&b) soundtrack. Alana created the bracket and the crew picked based on her personal favorites. The participants are The Wiz, Purple Rain, Space Jam, Love & Basketball, ATL, Brown Sugar, Black Panther, and Boomerang. 

The Club is BACK....well Alana and Xavier are. After a 3 week break, the duo is back together as Alana asks the question that everyone else asks Xavier after a run of shows. She also asks more detailed questions like "How confident were you going into a tour you 100% funded?". "How did COVID restrictions affect attendance?", and "What's your pre-show routine?" .

Xavier explains why he hates talking before a performance, shares his new found favorite pre-show drink, and tells his favorite moments of the shows. 

The episode ends with the duo giving their suggestions for what to watch on TV this week.

Welcome back to The Club!

In the last episode before a 2 week break, the trio of Alana, Xay, and Jay are back to discuss all of the different ways music influences our lives from tv shows to working out (Xavier tells us his current playlist) or even cleaning the house.

I AM A MASSIVE WWE FAN. I've asked two other massive WWE fans to participate in a tournament to pick the best entrance song in the history of WWE. (And YES, I play a bit of each song!) This week my co-hosts are returning guest, Sylvan LaCue, and Spectrum News Reporter, Jose Arredondo. 
(Many honorable mentions were edited out for the sake of time.)

The Tournament begins at the 10:25 marker. 

In this episode, the trio of Alana, Xavier, and Jay are joined by frequent guest co-host DJ Marauder as they discuss the nuances of artists and social media. Topics include:
* The benefits and detriments of artists on socials.
* What do people expect from artists and their socials?
* How personal should artists be on socials?
* Should fans allow celebrities to "be human" on their pages or should celebrities simply "know what they signed up for" ?
* Lizzo's breakdown

This week we interview visionary artist Sylvan LaCue about everything from the AA style meetings of his breakthrough album Apologies in Advance (AIA), to his desire to be a story writer for WWE. Topics discussed include the big changes in his life between  AIA and his new EP series Young Sylvan, why he reached out to get therapy, his favorite animes and since he was raised in Miami which NBA Big 3 is he taking; 11-14 Miami Heat or the current Brooklyn Nets?
