South Carolina is a state filled with great talent, talent that is not always recognized and appreciated as much as it should be. The purpose of this platform is to highlight S.C. talent in all forms of creativity. The group of childhood friends (originally from Florence, SC) are the lifeblood of the venture. Tune into the conversation as the guys hit a variety of topics that range from black culture, current events, and much more. Also check out the platform’s sub series “Broken Records” where the guys give analytical breakdowns on current and past albums/projects.

    Broken Records: Wasteland

    Broken Records: Wasteland

    From walking the streets of DC to topping the charts of the US R&B/Hip Hop Billboard, Brent Faiyaz has shown the world one of the most impressive progressions of an independent artist. In this second studio album, Wasteland, Brent welcomes us into his own dystopia. We see him embrace his lifestyle, come to cross roads, and speak with raw emotion that shines a lot more light into what we assume is a day in the life of the R&B rockstar. E calls it a masterpiece. It's hard to argue that with the accolades and global feedback its received. Join the Guys with special guest, Morgan, as we breakdown this work of art.

Love it

One of my favorite things about podcasts is how they can transport you to different cultures and communities around this country. These guys are great. Loving the insight into both South Carolina and the Black experience.

Putting on for SC!!

Best podcast out there talking about the most underrated state in the U.S. (South Carolina) from five different South Carolina perspectives. These guys crack me up but also bring a wealth of knowledge.
