Episode 93 | "Nothing Burger" (DJXP feat. EverythingOShauN & Trivelle Simpson)

Episode 93 starts off with Trivelle chronicling his weight loss journey and how it has changed his ability to cuddle, before the convo shifts to one of the biggest hip hop stories of the past week: the Young Thug leaked jail calls. Convos with a litany of people, including 21 Savage, his now ex-girlfriend Mariah, and more, find Young Thug speaking on his disdain and issues with a plethora of Atlanta key players and music mainstays. These comments can be seen as either pent-up frustration or true feelings. At the time of recording, some of the bigger names had not yet been released, but the group discusses the lasting impact on the Atlanta scene...often seen as the most unified in hip hop, a reputation that’s fuelled their long musical run. Another city that enjoyed a long run, Miami, comes up next with a retelling of Ace Hood’s unfortunate contract situation, in which Khaled had a hand. This leads the convo to previews of two new Khaled songs: the mega posse cut with dancehall and reggae legends Vybz Kartel, Buju Banton, Bounty Killer, and Movado titled “You Remind Me” and “Brother” featuring NBA Youngboy and Post Malone. Cardi beating her court case follows, with the convo stemming from a recent interview where Billboard asked her about a “Big 3” that includes her, Nicki, and Meg Thee Stallion. While OShauN disagrees with the notion of a Big 3 being brought up in every comparative class, DJXP explains why there may be undue pressure on Megan Thee Stallion to be considered among hip hop’s top echelon ...pressure that may come more from her backing than necessarily her skill or versatility. The gang then runs through the new track “Gyatt” featuring two former female rap rivals, Ice Spice and Latto, who buried the hatchet to get the clubs moving with their latest record. Next up is the Drake and Bobbi Altoff interview, with everyone sharing their thoughts on how it went... some enjoying it, others explaining why they could’ve done without it. The convo then moves into sports stories, including Gilbert Arenas and Skip Bayless teaming up for a football show, and the scandal rocking the sports world involving Steve Ballmer and the Kawhi Leonard debacle. A fictitious tree-planting company, allegedly created to avoid salary cap restrictions, is revealed to have been paying Leonard his true value. The Rock’s new movie gets a standing ovation, Will Smith signs a big-picture deal with Paramount, and a heated Reddit debate has OShauN fired up as a woman with a tattoo of her deceased boyfriend on her chest wonders why her new relationships always end prematurely. This episode is jam-packed. Lock in… You Might Wanna Sit Down 4 This.
