    030: Did Beyoncé make JAY-Z?

    "Gentrify your own hood, before these people do it." This is the beginning JAY-Z's "Nipsey Hussle Freestyle" during his B-Sides 2 concert in the newly renovated Webster Hall in New York City. It sparked a conversation about the sociopolitical impact of gentrification on longtime residents in the target community... and JAY-Z's potential involvement in the gentrification of Brooklyn.

    030: Did Beyoncé make JAY-Z?

    While this episode was recorded well before the announcement of JAY-Z's billionaire status, the question is still whispered between these two married moguls/musicians. Did Hov need Bey's global audience? Did Bey need Hov's business acumen? What stories do the business and music tell?

    027: Is "Old Town Road" Country?

    Lil Nas X's "Old Town" was initially released independently in December 2018, and gained popularity on social video sharing app TikTok. The song achieved a rare feat in Billboard history when it simultaneously charted on the Billboard Hot 100, Hot Country Songs and Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs charts in March 2019. However, Billboard quietly removed "Old Town Road" from its Hot Country chart for "not [embracing] enough elements of today's country music." What? Why? How?
