Latest Episodes:

Episode 449 | High School Prom Jan 30, 2026

Show notes

It hasn’t been more than a couple hours and Mal is already the main character on Twitter. Does he care though? 50 Cent weighed in on Banks vs Fab, but what does he really think? Demaris was having flashbacks to her High School Prom so we get real nostalgic and remember what our High School graduation songs were. Mass Appeal continues to show why they’re the best label out right now with a new idea for hip-hop heads to enjoy the culture. Plus, Baby D refuses to take Rory to a Summer Walker concert, and a listener calls us out on our New York bias #volume

J. Cole blessed us with a 4 track mixtape so you know we gotta dedicate the pod to it. Was Cole taking a shot at Mal, or was he taking a shot at everybody with a pod mic? Rory hits up Young Symba to instigate about Cole sending a shot his way. Plus, it gets heated when Mal wants to know if J. Cole will let the public know why he stopped talking to Drake. #volume

Show notes

And we’re back ready to kick off our new era on Netflix. We recap our Sunday snowed in while deciding who will be our pod intimacy coordinator. Ye released a written apology to The Wall Street Journal, but Mal ain’t buying it. On the other hand, Rory gets that it’s all business. We’ve been had the debate if Jim Jones made Kid Cudi, but it went viral on the internet after Cudi had a few words for Jim Jones. Do we need to be humbled as New Yorkers, though? Plus, who we got in a Mike Will Made It vs Hit-Boy Verzuz, Rory was feelin’ Ari Lennox’s new album, and Chad Hugo suing Pharell leads to Rory educating us on royalty splits. #volume

It’s the fall out after the fall off announcement. J. Cole might’ve stolen headlines yesterday, but A$AP is dropping his project. Rory and Mal are hoping Rihanna has a secret appearance on it.
