    Episode 27: Madonna Whore Complex & the Music of Lana Del Rey

    Trigger Warning: Sensitive subject matter on sexuality discussed 
    Carmen Z and special guest Niajah B, her trusted sidekick, do another round of exploring life’s hot topics with more of Lana Del Rey’s lyrics, because Lana is a God. Sigmund Freud, everyone’s favorite Grandfather of psychoanalysis, coined the phrase “Madonna Whore Complex,” to try and make sense of man’s complex relationship with women’s sexuality.  The best way to explain how they harmonize the music and the madness, is to listen!

    Get your beautiful minds out of the gutter, friends!  Carmen Z isn’t talking about sex positions, she’s discussing phone etiquette and how we may or may not be conscious of how we use our phones, in all the ways we use them, and what that might say about who we are and how we come across to others. Do you put your phone face down or face up?  What might that say about you? Our phones are our third arm.  Along with the lyrics of the powerhouse that is Drake, she gets the hotline bling! Please check out the conversation!

    Episode 24: The Female Body, Seduction & the Music of Nicki Minaj

    Episode 24: The Female Body, Seduction & the Music of Nicki Minaj

    ***Warning:  Some lyrics highlighted in this episode may be vulgar for some listeners.  Try and listen with an open mind.***
    Carmen Z explores the female body and the art of seduction by lacing in the lyrics of the eccentric and enigmatic powerhouse that is Nicki Minaj.  The feminine physique and all its beautiful powers can be a tool used for tremendous empowerment, and if we aren’t careful, an abuse of power.  In a time where male entitlement and abuse of power are coming into the forefront of conversation and change, let us look at the power of both sexes and how these themes relate through the lyrics.
