    After a week of high activity, I took time to let you all catch up and get a much-needed break. I definitely missed the process and it shows. Episode 237 was dedicated to three gentlemen who personify Hip Hop in their own ways. From DJ Kay Slay a Man who played a part in every element of Hip Hop, to Shock G one of the culture's most talented and original characters, and of course the man behind the title Rico Wade. I open with a musical tribute to just a handful of his contributions transcending the genre while highlighting Rico's Wave. Then to avoid another pod surrounding so-called beef I briefly discuss the latest Kendrick diss that was soon deleted from DSP's I'll fill you in.

    What was an uneventful Friday of music releases may of just been the calm before the storm. Saturday seen the biggest artist in the world drop his response to "Like That" when "Drop And Gimme 50" made its way to the public. I give my take on the record and breakdown the meaning behind the bars. While Drake chose to address the field many by name only one took it upon themselves to fire back. Rick Ross responded with "Champagne Moments" just two hours later followed by a numbers of social media posts trolling Drake. Now BBL Drizzy is trending and we are all still waiting on Kendrick to respond. I give my take on it all and what could and should happen next.

    Now that a great weekend in sports is finally wrapped up join me as I break down the past 72 hours that was. From Friday's slate of games that saw teams from each conference of the NBA fighting for playoff seeding, to a great UFC 300 card, and of course, Sunday's NBA games that concluded the 2023-2024 regular season. The family and I spent our weekend in Sacramento attending the final two home games for the Kings and rode the rollercoaster of emotions that came with it, from blundering another huge lead on Friday night to dominance on Sunday afternoon. I'll tell you why our fate was sealed Thursday and where we stand now that the dust has settled. No matter who your favorite NBA team is "The Stage Is Set" for the play-in scenarios and soon the NBA Playoffs as a whole. I give my best case and biased predictions as well as what I think will happen in my heart of hearts.

    Timing is everything, had I did this show Friday the narrative would have been much different. However following the events that took place after the surprise release of J. Cole's mixtape “Might Delete Later” we are left with wondering why he entered his hat in the race at all. The talk of Thursday night heading into Friday was the response titled “7 Minute Drill”. Maybe that was how long it took Cole to regret his move as just a couple days later he took the stage at his “Dreamville Festival” denouncing what he had done. I give my opinion on why his reasoning is contradictory to his own words as of late and what it means for him going forward. Then I highlight all the music that's been lost in the shuffle due to all the back and forth by the “Big 3”.

    Some people can't get out of their way. That seems to be the case for Draymond Green. In a recent road game in Orlando Draymond was assessed two technical fouls in the first 4 minutes of the game resulting in another ejection leaving his team in peril. While he seems to think it's no big deal the instant reaction of Steph Curry as well as post-game responses from him and head coach Steve Kerr say otherwise. I give my opinion on what this could mean for an already difficult season for the Warriors. Are Steph and the rest of the organization finally "Fed Up"? Then I give reasons for why the Sacramento Kings are also showing signs that appear to be cause for concern. Then news around the NFL, opening day for the MLB, and Boxing gearing up for a big spring and summer.

    One week since the latest Kendrick Lamar created "moment" in Hip Hop I broke down the impact of his latest feature on the "We Don't Trust You" album by Metro Boomin and Future. While the full project was dope in totality the "Like That" track made waves in the culture. I discuss not only all the subliminal jabs that led to this moment but also give predictions on what might happen next. Who stands most to gain from this and who should just fall back. Then tragic. news of a container ship collision and then a collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore leaves rescue crews of divers, Coast Guard helicopters, and boats searching for those who fell to the river below. I share the few details known and my thoughts on the media's line of questioning following the incident. And there may be an end in sight for the Sean Combs era. As his homes are raided, children, are detained, and the alleged drug mule is in custody an investigation from Homeland Security seems to be the writing on the wall for the self-proclaimed Bad Boy, I give a brief insight with plans on going further into detail on Patreon.

    On this episode I discover just how hard it is to keep up with NFL free agency. While constant changes to the landscape made the note taking process difficult, it did make me gain a world of respect for Adam Schefter. ESPN's go to man around this time of the year has been living on his devices to keep up. From the Steelers adding two high profile QB's to running backs that were staples of their teams entering this season in different uniforms. NBA action is ramping up with the regular season coming to an end. I look over the ever changing standings in each conference and give my best case scenario for the California teams.
