In this episode, Wellington and Savon are joined by Maurice Hendricks again, a multimedia content creator, focusing on making music, film production, and video game design and a good friend of the show. They review Frank Ocean's Blonde album from 2016, how this was an album with so much clarity and transparency and why he's such a transcendent and beloved artist. Then they review Kehlani's latest project It Was Good Until It Wasn't and how it highlighted her voice's range and clear-eyed approach and Jaden Smith's debut Syre from 2017 and the sophisticated ideas and thoughts he was conveying. In the second half of the show, they review Shutter Island, the 2010 American psychological thriller film, starring Leonardo Dicaprio, Michelle Williams, Ben Kingsley, and Mark Ruffallo and directed by Martin Scorsese. They discuss Martin Scorsese delving into a different genre and not getting unanimous praise among a few circles, it being among one of Dicaprio's critically acclaimed favorites and Ben Kingsley's unique role as Dr. Cawley exhibiting a distinct mysteriousness, as he treats mental illness.
For whatever reason, Tony's finger has always been miles away from the pulse when it comes to music. After every music critic shared their "Best of the decade" lists it became woefully apparent that he had a bajillion blind spots. To remedy that, Matt put a bunch of "best of" lists through a statistical gauntlet to come up with a consensus on what the top five records of the decade were: Robyn's "Body Talk" (2010); Kanye West's "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy" (2010); Kendrick Lamar's "To Pimp a Butterfly" (2015); Beyonce's "Lemonade" (2016); Frank Ocean's Blonde (2016). Matt and Tony talk about why Tony hadn't engaged with these or other big albums from the last decade, the secret shame of not knowing the work of personalities who loom large over our cultural conversations (looking at you, Kanye and Beyonce), and what connected all five of these records in defining the 2010s.
