    I'm tired of saying that I'm back (even though I am). So let's just act like I've been here the whole time. Even though my being gone shaped what this entire pod and future pods will look like, let's not address the elephant in the room. Anyway, the ABP is getting back to its roots, and that's sharpening artists to be the best creatives of their ability. To be able to do that, we have to talk about Art in the Rocky Soil. If you're confused about what that means, then that means you should watch this episode. This podcast is heavily influenced by the bible (specifically Matthew 13), so if that's not your thing, it's understandable, however, I think the message still can apply. God loves you. I love you. See you next week.

    We need to stop living in the past and learn how to enjoy what we have right now. Think about it. How often do you live in nostalgia? How often do you not enjoy what you have today because you're so focused on the greatness of yesterday? Appreciating what happened in the past is amazing. We're going to talk about how Druski appreciates and shows homage to the past in his TV shows. But, don't get so consumed with was was that you miss out on what is.

    Do you have friends that will help you with your itchy eyes? I know this question might sound silly to some, but I believe we should be genuinely concerned about this. I think that it is important for you to have people who are in your corner no matter what. For example, when Freddie Gibbs was talking recklessly about J. Cole there was a whole fanbase there to protect and defend Cole's name. In a negative context, at Diddy's most vulnerable time, one of his lawyers filed a motion to withdraw as his lawyer. So I ask you this one more time. Do your friends help you with your itchy eyes? If not maybe you're better off scratching them yourself.

    I HATE IT HERE!!!!! This week has been a long week. We've been hoodwinked, bamboozled, fooled, ran amuck, and that was all on Tuesday. While all that was happening, y'all were out here saying Tyler the Creator needs to be a part of the big 3, streamers are saying that streaming is harder than a 9 to 5, and Lil Durk might be going to jail for something he has NO business doing. Upset isn't even the word but at the very least we have the 'Arts Block Podcast'.

    Some of you didn't listen to Smino when he said, "I get my food from the source." You're eating the first piece of information anyone gives you, and it shows. Today, we'll dive into sources and why reliable sources are the key to long-lasting journalism. Also, we're diving into Drake's actions during Vince Carter's jersey retirement, which wasn't gangsta at all. Like every week, we have a lot to dive into but such little time. Lucky for you...

    We all know that we can't pour from an empty cup. Once the cup is empty... it's empty. However, where do we go when we need a refill? Or, better yet, who do we go to? I will give you all a hint by saying you cannot fill your cup. If our job as creatives and artists is to pour into others, how are we going to simultaneously pour into ourselves? This episode is all about that. Where do we go when our creative cup is empty? We need to be pouring full cups of creativity. Don't nobody want any juice drops.

    Sometimes, you have to apologize for your actions and take accountability for your actions. It might not feel like the best thing to do, but when you're wrong, you're wrong. Now, don't get me wrong. I'm not apologizing for what I said. I'm apologizing for how I said it. But if I could say everything that I said last pod again, would I? HELL YEAH!

My big issue today is that we aren't being objective about music. Also, we tend to jump to conclusions about what the music is saying rather than listening.

Cardi B gave us a masterclass on using social media during her back-and-forth with her ex-husband, Offset. We find out that Young Dolph's killers only received $800 out of the promised $100,000. J Cole is reminding everyone why he is #1 out of the big 3. Lastly, we answer the question of why is Chlöe Bailey not performing. This is a long week but somehow, someway we're here podding with ya'll. So in my opinion. It's been great!

Now, personally, I don't like how y'all are treating Wayne (but we'll talk about that more on the pod). However, everyone is blaming Jay-Z, saying he did this because of the Kendrick and Drake beef, and... he did. However, no one is talking about what Hov didn't do.

    Y'all know about pretty privilege right? It's when you get certain attention or get things easier based on your looks and beauty. Well, petty privilege works the same way. Sometimes when you're so petty, (especially to someone the public doesn't like) you can get away with almost anything. That's a common trait with some of the people that we're speaking about today. Kendrick Lamar has proved that he's the king of being petty, Shannon Sharpe has been petty all of his life. Taraji P Henson is petty but y'all don't give her the same grace as everyone else (we know why). Pharell is petty too we keep it on the low. So as we move through this episode, think about one thing. How can one person be so petty?Links:https://www.instagram.com/ericcurryiii/https://www.instagram.com/artsblockpodcast/https://linktr.ee/ArtsBlock --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/eric-curry-iii/support

However, with all of the loss we've been seeing, there has been some light. One of the biggest lights that we have seen has been Kendrick Lamar announcing he will be headlining Super Bowl 59 in New Orleans. Now if my memory serves me correctly, later last year 2 dudes got on a track and said that they are "big as the Super Bowl". Huh... it's funny how life works ain't it.
