It’s an Alpha Day for the Busy Boys. We’re joined by good brother, poet, founder of Poetry Me, Please, Rush (The Mic). We briefly discuss the best love rappers before getting into the CHAT.

Nic's HALF&HALF is all about Spotify looking out for the songwriters. One more shoutout to Employee of The Month, Junae Brown! Ahmad blesses us with Youngshann's "Better" for the SLIDE DECK while Nic and Armon keep the competition going on their end.
