Gotta catch up on this week's, but whoever came up with the titles for the episodes knew their shyt 
Late pass - took me till today to realize that ALL the episode titles were named after breakbeats hence 'The Breaks'. I thought it was only 'It's Just Begun' until I saw tonight's title.
THE EPISODE TITLES:

102 - "It's Just Begun"
103 - "Blind Alley"
104 - "Substitution"
105 - "Amen, Brother"
106 - "Runaway"
107 - "Under Pressure"
108 - "N.T.”
THE SONG TITLES THEY ARE BASED ON
“Hard To Handle” by Otis Redding
sampled by Marley Marl on "The Symphony"
“It’s Just Begun” by the Jimmy Castor Bunch
sampled by the Jungle Bros on "On The Run"
“Blind Alley” by The Emotions
sampled by Big Daddy Kane on "Ain't No Half Steppin"
“Synthetic Substitution” by Melvin Bliss
sampled by damn near every producer on the planet, but, for example
by Naughty By Nature on "O.P.P."
“Amen, Brother” by The Winstons
sampled by, again, damn near every producer on the planet, but, for example
by N.W.A. on "Straight Outta Compton"
“Runaway” by Coke Escovedo
sampled by T La Rock on "Runaway"
“Under Pressure” by Queen & David Bowie
sampled by Vanilla Ice on "Ice Ice Baby"

Amazing acting and dope episode. Probably the best one so far.
Can't wait to see how all this shyt gets sorted out. Also did they pay dude to take a fall for the shooting, is that what happened
Also, Nicki was looking immaculate and I could resist them legs on Teyanna Taylor in that one scene when they in Barry's apartment smoking. My, my, my!

The fact that people got trampled was a reference to the Heavy D and Puff Daddy Basketball game "stampede" at CCNY College in 1991:
Nine killed in a stampede outside a hip-hop celebrity basketball game - Dec 28, 1991 - HISTORY.com

Has the white dude spoke on him being written off yet. I ain't seen nothing. I'm just curious how he feels about it.
Ahm paid dude to take the fall I stead of kill prep school?
The reporter chick like Nikki and forsay is willing to do whatever to get ahead

Yeah it seems like Ahm paid dude to say he did it. I don't know why they would kill DB though? Is it because he knows? He didn't rat on them.
Also word, can't believe the reporter chick did that but she had to keep her job. I also can't believe dude sucker punched her towards the end.
soundtrack to this show is off the hinges, some great nostalgia
