In this episode, I open up about the future of the podcast. I’ve made the decision to wrap it up after 5 more episodes . I truly appreciate every single listener who’s rocked with me—your support has meant everything. But with viewership dropping and the way these platforms are set up—always favoring new shows over existing ones—it's been a constant uphill battle. I take full accountability too. I didn’t market like I could’ve. I didn’t put the show on YouTube, mainly because I worried about censorship and having to dilute the art just to appease algorithms. I wanted this space to stay real and unfiltered. This episode also dives deep into the latest on Diddy . I break down why his bail was denied and why I feel it was unjust, especially when the judge used his admission of past violence , even though he was acquitted of the violent charges . It feels like the system is punishing him for winning. We also discuss: The standing ovation Diddy received from fellow inmates A TMZ clip covering his entry into a drug and abuse program (which is standard) How prosecutors are scrambling to find case law around the Mann Act charges Why is that law rooted in racism and outdated morality policing How the sentencing phase will be shaped by whether Diddy shows remorse or signs of rehab I also react to a local Fox News report on Maureen Comey being fired by Trump ... was it linked to Diddy, or is this about the backlash from Epstein? Either way, I call out the bigger issue: mob mentality , the danger of MAGA turning on itself, and what happens when your country runs on public opinion over facts , whether it’s celebrity scandals or conspiracy rabbit holes. Tap in.…
 
I start this episode with a personal update on the tragic passing of my coworker Jen Nguyen, who died by suicide. I share how it’s affected me and why this hit hard. Then we get into Diddy, who was reportedly offered a plea deal. I explain why I think he should take it—even though I believe the case is weak and full of BS. I compare it to R. Kelly’s flimsy federal trial, and how Diddy already lost the people because his swinging lifestyle is seen by many as demonic. We also talk about Shedeur Sanders dropping to the 5th round (pick 144) in the NFL Draft. I break down why I think racism played a role and how people tend to hate the confident, cocky Black man. While Shedeur didn’t help himself with his interviews or skipping the combine, I still think his talent and tape should’ve covered for that. I also give props to his father, Deion Sanders, and what he's done in college football—putting Shedeur, Shilo, Travis Hunter, and Jimmy Horn into the league. Lastly, I touch on Shannon Sharpe and the recent MeToo-style allegation against him. With him stepping back from ESPN, I share why I think this might be a shakedown. Yes, he bears some responsibility, but the public reaction—especially around the age gap—shows how quick people are to take a moral stand. This episode is about how society has become polarized and obsessed with morality. Diddy, Shedeur, and Shannon Sharpe are seen as immoral by some and victims of the system by others. It’s complicated.…
 
In this episode, I'm diving into the recent drama surrounding Jess Hilarious, the co-host of The Breakfast Club . After returning from maternity leave, Jess went live on Instagram on March 18, 2025, to air out her frustrations with her co-hosts, Charlamagne Tha God and DJ Envy, accusing them of not defending her against online criticism and of not offering enough support regarding changes on the show. Jess also expressed her shock and frustration over Loren LoRosa, who had been filling in during her leave and remained on as a guest host even after Jess’s return. On March 19, 2025, Jess confronted her co-hosts on air, clarifying that her issues weren’t solely with Loren, but with how the situation was handled by the Breakfast Club team. She also addressed rumors about her being fired, stressing that no official confirmation had been made about her job status. Tune in as i break this down.…
 
In this episode, we start with a rave review of James by Percival Everett . This novel, a brilliant reimagining of Mark Twain's Adventures of Huckleberry Finn from Jim's perspective, absolutely blew me away. It’s a five-star read in my book, and I believe more people should pick it up. We then briefly touch on the movie American Fiction , which is based on Everett's 2001 novel Erasure . The film adaptation dives into the complexities of race and identity, much like the novel, and is worth checking out. Lastly, I react to a thought-provoking clip from a speaker who argues that men today are better providers than ever before. I dive into how the skyrocketing cost of living has made it harder for people to provide for their families, acknowledging that it’s a tough road—one that’s harder today than it was in the past. Tune in for this mix of book talk, movie insights, and an honest discussion about the challenges of modern life!…
 
in this episode, we kick things off with an honest review of Drake and PartyNextDoor’s new album, Some Sexy Songs 4 U . I break down why I think it’ll hit number 1 next week, but still land a solid 6/10—good, but not quite as groundbreaking as it could’ve been. I compare it to the GNX rating and discuss how Kendrick Lamar did more with fewer tracks, even though this album still has its moments. We then shift to the political scene, diving into the drama surrounding New York City Mayor Eric Adams and the potential for him to be fired. With the governor holding the power to make that decision, I discuss how this situation seems more politically driven—especially with Adams aligning himself with President Trump. I share why I disagree with the Gov approach and what this means for the city’s future.…
 
In this episode, I dive into the Super Bowl aftermath, celebrating the Eagles’ big win and sharing my thoughts on Kendrick Lamar’s halftime performance. While Kendrick’s fans found it deep and meaningful, I felt the show missed the mark for a Super Bowl performance—lacking the entertainment factor and not featuring his biggest hits. Instead, he made it more about Drake than his own legacy, and the vibe just didn’t feel right for the occasion. I also touch on the ongoing trend of predominantly Black artists in the spotlight since Jay-Z’s influence on the music scene, and the importance of appealing to a broader audience, including white listeners who are loving country music right now. Lastly in the episode, I clarify my thoughts on DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) policies, explaining how Black men and poor communities are largely excluded, while Black women and upper-middle-class individuals benefit most from these initiatives. Tune in for a mix of sports, music, and social issues as we break down some of the most talked-about topics today!…
 
In this episode, we pay our respects to the late Irv Gotti—a legendary producer, A&R, and record label executive—whose contributions to the music industry left a lasting impact. Shifting gears, we dive into Kendrick Lamar's big night at the Grammys, winning five awards, and reflect on the mixed feelings surrounding a beef song like "Not Like Us" taking home the honor. I get into the spectacle around the beef, questioning why the media and fans keep the drama alive, turning it into a circus. The rise of STAN culture and online hate are dragging the conversation to new, unnecessary extremes. Then, we shift to some real-world talk, covering the anti-deportation protests and the ongoing tariff war with China—breaking down what these issues mean for the average person. Finally, I discuss the rapid changes under the new administration, including Trump rolling back decades of policy in just two weeks, and how Black people must adapt to stay ahead of the game. This episode is all about resilience, staying flexible, and not getting distracted by the noise.…
 
In this episode, I discuss the tragic collision between a Black Hawk and an American Airlines flight on January 29, 2025. While reflecting on this heartbreaking event, I address my disagreement with President Trump’s attempt to politicize the tragedy by linking it to the broader debate over Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). I share my own experiences with DEI and explain why I believe it’s wrong to use the victims of such a disaster as a platform for political agendas. This episode isn’t about politics—it's about respecting those affected by the tragedy and resisting the temptation to turn their suffering into a talking point in an ongoing culture war…
 
In this episode, I reflect on the past year — the wins, the losses, and everything that’s happened in between. I talk through the lessons learned from the highs and lows, and how they’ve shaped my journey. I also take a moment to cover some key updates, including the latest on Jeff Maddrey, as well as the tragic terrorist attacks in both New Orleans and Tesla. In New Orleans, 15 innocent lives were lost in a devastating attack that rocked the community. I share my thoughts on these events. Additionally, I discuss my desire to expand the podcast’s focus to include more global stories, bringing a wider range of perspectives and topics to the table. Happy New Year and Welcome to 2025…
 
Merry Christmas! In this episode, I share a bit of my holiday spirit while diving into some heavy topics that have been on my mind. First, I talk about my fears and challenges surrounding the decision to apply for a PhD program, and how it feels to step into an uncertain future. From there, we jump into the tragic story of a woman who was set on fire aboard the F train in New York City. I discuss the shifting narrative around the case, with the NYPD focusing more on the presence (or absence) of cameras on the train, rather than addressing the broader issue of the migrant crisis that may have contributed to the incident. Next, I cover the early retirement of NYPD Lt. Epps, who’s in the news for allegedly abusing overtime, and how it ties into a disturbing pattern of behavior within the force. This leads to the controversy surrounding Top Cop Jeffrey Maddrey, who was recently accused by Lt. Epps of coercing her into sexual favors in exchange for overtime. Throughout the episode, I give my thoughts on these events and reflect on what they say about power, accountability, and the challenges of reforming institutions like the NYPD.…
 
In this episode, I reflect on the loss of my cousin Ephraim and my journey through grief, including the process of forgiving him for past differences. I then discuss the heartbreaking story of Hannah Kobayashi, who went missing and was later found in Tijuana, Mexico. Her actions caused immense pain for her family, culminating in her father’s tragic suicide. This raises the question: Are parents holding on to their children too tightly, and what drives adults to run away in search of freedom? I also react to the story of Ryan Borgwardt, a man who faked his own death to escape his struggles. While I empathize with his pain, I examine the double standards men face when it comes to dealing with hardship and taking accountability for their actions. Lastly, I confront the shocking confession of Crystal Mangum, who admitted—after 18 years—that she lied about the Duke Lacrosse rape case. Her false claims destroyed lives and left irreparable damage. This episode tackles themes of selfishness, the consequences of poor decision-making, and the often-overlooked emotional burdens that men endure.…
 
In this episode, I unpack Kendrick Lamar's GNX , an album that feels surprisingly safe and comfortable—perhaps too comfortable. Coming off the intense energy of the Drake beef and the hit Not Like Us , Kendrick’s GNX seems to take the easy route, opting for a simplified West Coast hip-hop sound instead of pushing boundaries as he’s known for. Was this a strategic move, or did Kendrick take the easy way out by relying on familiar sounds rather than challenging his listeners? I also dive into the latest drama surrounding Drake and his lawsuit against UMG, exploring how the label may be trying to sabotage his album negotiations by stoking the flames of his beef with Kendrick. How much of this legal battle is business, and how much is personal? Then, I discuss Diddy’s third denial of bail, raising important questions about fairness and racial disparities in the justice system. Is he being unfairly treated, especially when you consider how white defendants in similar or worse situations often get bail? Finally, I reflect on my recent trip to NYC to bury my cousin. It was supposed to be a time for rest, but it turned into a deep emotional journey that didn’t feel like a vacation at all. Tune in for a candid conversation that touches on music, justice, and personal reflection.…
