“I Just Went to the Riot” | Episode 14 | Pop the Trunk

After the slept-on rappers episode sparked a wave of responses from the audience, Vinnie and Brendan discuss names that didn't make the original list, artists whose careers took hard left turns, and a few who quietly reinvented themselves in ways nobody saw coming. From Philly legends to Long Island crews to a Queens MC who ended up writing for Beyoncé, the conversation covers artists who deserved far more than they got, and tries to make sense of why the music industry let them slip through the cracks.Along the way, the crew gets into the Enhanced Games, a suspicious stat about NBA referees, the shiny suit era's collateral damage, and a firsthand account of one of the most chaotic nights in college basketball history. Tune in for Episode 14 of Pop the Trunk, with Vinnie Paz.
