The music convo heats up too, including Grammy talk and shoutouts to Bad Bunny. Later, things get real. The crew debates relationship boundaries on social media, following someone you used to deal with, liking pictures, and what “micro-cheating” actually means. Kayvon shares his perspective on maturity, handling problems head-on, and why growth in your late 20s hits different.
