Nuck If You Buck ft. Cortez Smith

This week on Pour Minds, Lex P and Drea Nicole are joined by The Chi’s very own Cortez Smith, better known as Nuck, for a wild ride of storytelling, truth-telling, and bone-hitting honesty (literally). From his real-life experiences growing up in Chicago to landing his breakout role, Cortez opens up about how he dodged the streets, dealt with rejection from Spike Lee, and why one “yes” changed his life forever. They also get into the rise of hobosexuals—fine men with nowhere to live—unpacking whether looks really get you far when you’re broke. The trio shares Poor Decisions of the Week, debates tattoo regrets (and removals), and dives deep into dating with no motion, the curse of pretty privilege, and why vibes matter more than abs. Plus: the girls sip on the “Pour & Peace Paloma,” this week’s Taylor Port-sponsored Drink of the Week, and Cortez keeps it real about paying his tab when he had no home, no job—but plenty stroke!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
