Episode 449 | High School Prom

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 All lines provided by hardrock.betSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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 All lines provided by hardrock.betSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
