nahh the best episode is easily the joey badass ep, he came in and was pretty much a 3rd host

he answered every question, he had something to say for every topic and did his lil promo at the end

it was perfect
Agree to disagree. Good episodes all around.

the low end. southside chi
thought it was interesting how ak mentioned krit talking about the same label struggles and bs that happens on majors that joe keeps trying to tell ak
you could see on his face him realizing the shyt joe was saying was 100 facts and not just joe being self destructive joe


them using the wrong album art for 1 train low key annoyed me lmao

Good episode with Krit..Joe did his thing and the moderator contributed way more than AK.:hhh:

Watch at the last 2 minutes . AK just stares at the camera at least 2x wanting them to stop talking since he had nothing to add to this whole episode.. If your a host you gotta do a little homework before they bring up guests :stopitslime::francis:

Hopefully they get Curren$y or Wiz soon

Nah AK needs to be there because the differences between him and joe with both their ego is what makes this show exactly what hip hop did not have before (Youtube, radio, tv). The problem is the lack of direction (probably keeps the show real/fresh not orchestrated). With Hot 97/Breakfast club hosts, they don't have much differences amongst one another so their crowd isn't from both sides of hip hop fans.

Both Joe and AK are too stubborn to listen to music that isn't their taste so these kind of episodes will continue. What they need to do is drop that friday show, the interviews ain't the same without Joe, Ak is not charlamagne (or have his tactics to generate buzz like Joe has shown with artist or the public) and he needs to realize that and find his strength when interviewing artist.

Krit really dropped some facts about why why artist still sign. When you are producing an album, taking a few months to record you are paying your engineer, producer, recording studio, after hours when the artist isn't there and engineer is still fixing the song up. Paying homies, going out - doing all of that with no money management, no guaranteed contract like the NBA, so that 2m you thought would last forever was easily spent in a year. Rappers/musicians do not have enough or understanding to find industry middleman who can prompt up the budget to produce music, how to efficiently tour where you are profitable, marketing etc. Most artist don't have the 100k-500k to release an album, begin a tour, pay the bill forward before not signing.

I honestly feel like some of y'all that want a career in the music field need to start looking at that route. What service can you provide the artist and bridge the gap between label and easing the process of an independent artist.

It's weird cause AK is like 27. You mean to tell me you weren't familiar with Krits work back in 2010-2011? Maybe he just listens to radio? When did this guy started listening to rap lol

They brought up 1Train which was a bit cliche but what about They Ready. Who bodied who on that track. I wonder if Cole and Krit was in the studio together for that. I'm sure Kendrick stumbled upon it during a studio session with Cole. But it would've been interesting to find out how that track came about.
He's so weird man. It's like he's a 2000s baby.
He don't fit in with other nikkas who 25+
