Dry Em'

This week we're getting into it — from rappers cozying up to MAGA (Flo Rida really did that at Trump's "Freedom 250"?) to the real question of whether we boycott Essence Fest this year. We break down why your gas and electric bill is about to hit different, why student loan repayment just got even messier, and how Trump's DC bash left the air quality looking real questionable. Plus: Is India Arie right that "Spend Dat" shouldn't be song of the summer — and does music actually have power over us? We're debating cat washes vs. full showers (yes, really), asking would-you-rather questions about betrayal, and getting into the "Woolady" controversy — is she teaching empowerment or setting a trap? Grab your headphones, this one's a lot. 🎙️ Topics Discussed: Rappers & MAGA: Lil Wayne rumors, Flo Rida performs for Trump's "Freedom 250" Should we boycott Essence Fest?
