Send us a textMusic battles, NBA playoffs, and wild hypotheticals collide in our most eclectic episode yet! We kick things off with a track-by-track comparison between R&B heavyweights Giveon and Leon Thomas, breaking down their distinct styles and debating who delivers the stronger emotional punch. "All I want to hear is Leon sing all the Giveon songs," one host declares, sparking a deeper conversation about the many subgenres within modern R&B.The basketball talk heats up as we analyze the New York Knicks' playoff chances against Boston and whether Karl-Anthony Towns is reaching his potential with the Timberwolves. We don't hold back our opinions on coaching changes and potential offseason moves that could reshape the league.Concert season dominates our entertainment segment as we examine why Chris Brown keeps adding tour dates while Beyoncé's ticket sales appear to be moving at a different pace than her Renaissance tour. Is it album reception, pricing strategy, or something else entirely? Meanwhile, Bow Wow's announcement about ending the Millennium Tour to revive the Scream Tour without Omarion has us speculating about which artists might join these competing nostalgic showcases.FOLLOW.

On this episode of the Cruz Show Podcast the team discusses some of their fav interview moments with Sexyy Red, Too $hort, Giveon, Hanumankind & more + we learned that Cruz & Nico can't swim & Jackie is upset about that. Jackie also wants Nico to get a tattoo of her name on his body & he's not sure about that. It's a fun podcast & great look into the Cruz Show Team's life.
Giveon made his first visit to The Cruz Show and it was an instant classic. So many laughs. Giveon was blown away by the Cruz Show's Questions and he wasn't scared to answer them. He talked about his new single Twenties, how he learned to sing when he hit puberty, his home city of Long Beach & more. Giveon also said he wouldn't want to be a judge on a singing competition show & believe it or not someone on the show had Giveon's phone numbee. Find out who? #giveon #thecruzshow

Linktree: https://linktr.ee/AnalyticIn this segment of Notorious Mass Effect, Analytic Dreamz dives into the new collaborative single "Are You Even Real" by Teddy Swims featuring GIVĒON. This dreamy ballad explores themes of disbelief in love's perfection and emotional vulnerability, with lyrics like "Are you even real / Or did I make you up?" from Swims and "You never do too much / Somehow, you're still enough for me" by GIVĒON. Teddy Swims shares his inspiration drawn from his relationship with R&B singer Raiche, who is expecting their first child, and commends GIVĒON's talent. GIVĒON notes the natural flow of the song, making it replay-worthy. "Are You Even Real" is part of Swims' forthcoming album, "I've Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 2)," due on January 24, 2025, via Warner Records, which also includes tracks like "Funeral" and "Bad Dreams" with features from Muni Long, Coco Jones, and GloRilla. Swims has made waves with his breakout hit "Lose Control," securing a nomination for Best New Artist at the 2025 Grammy Awards. GIVĒON, known for "Heartbreak Anniversary," has had recent collaborations like "Last Heartbreak Song" with Ayra Starr. The song has seen immediate success, garnering over 1.2 million streams on Spotify on its first day, debuting at #8 on Apple Music's US chart, and receiving substantial views on YouTube.

Finding happiness on your own is a journey of self-discovery. It starts with understanding your values, interests, and passions. By building a deeper connection with yourself, you cultivate a strong sense of self-awareness and identity. Being happy on your own does not imply complete isolation but rather embracing your independence and inner strength. It means valuing your ability to find joy and contentment within yourself, regardless of external circumstances. Practicing self-compassion is vital in this pursuit. Treat yourself with kindness and understanding, especially during challenging times. Embrace your flaws and imperfections as a natural part of being human. Set personal goals that align with your aspirations and values. Celebrate your achievements, no matter how big or small, as they contribute to your sense of accomplishment and happiness. Embracing moments of solitude and self-reflection can be empowering. It allows you to recharge, gain clarity, and appreciate the beauty of your own company. Cultivating a positive mindset and practicing gratitude are essential elements of being happy on your own. Focus on positive thinking and acknowledge the good things in your life. Building a supportive network of friends and loved ones can complement your happiness, but it's essential to remember that your worth and happiness come from within. Being open to change and growth is fundamental in this journey. Embrace life's transformations, as they can lead to new opportunities and personal evolution. Practicing mindfulness helps you be present in the moment, mindful of your emotions, and aware of how you react to various situations. Mindfulness contributes to your overall well-being and happiness. In conclusion, being happy on your own is about nurturing a positive relationship with yourself, valuing your independence, and finding fulfillment from within. It's a process of self-empowerment and self-love that enhances your overall well-being and enriches your experience of life.
We had the pleasure of interviewing David Arlo over Zoom video!London-born Nigerian critically acclaimed artist David Arlo and recently released his new single “Speeding”.“Speeding” is an anthem about never looking back. A powerful ballad with charismatic qualities of hums and powerful lyricism. Watch the official music video of “Speeding”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMVORx8jnHUABOUT DAVID ARLOAs a versatile, vital, and visionary creator, ARLO tells stories through multiple avenues. No matter the medium, his stories hold truth, facing failure, loss, mental health, and life's challenges head- on. The London-born Nigerian artist, actor, and creative projects his experience through a kaleidoscope of R&B, pop, and alternative vibes uplifted by his unpredictable vocal delivery and sky scraping range. His music feels like experiencing a moment of personal revelation teeming with newfound confidence in its soulful catharsis and exuding excitement for a brighter future via fascinating soundscape architecture. ARLO has created this new body of work with hitmakers such as Malay who co-wrote and produced both Frank Ocean's Channel Orange and Blonde, Marcus Semaj who co-wrote Giveon's debut album and Hitmaker Boots who produced Beyonce's self titled Beyonce album. On the strength of demos, he landed a deal with Arista and earned acclaim from the likes of Nylon, Ones To Watch, and WONDERLAND. He opens up with a sound that's as confessional as it is catchy on a series of singles for Arista Recordings introduced by “Speeding.”We want to hear from you!

Enjoy these R&B Feels.
R&B stands for Rhythm and Blues. In SZA's latest album SOS she expressed a lot of her emotions, and SOS did great on the charts. So would you now consider SZA the queen of R&B? We think yes! But is this kind of expression healthy? Revisiting songs on her CTRL album SZA made it known that she has multiple insecurities. We understand that music is art, but we aren't sure how healthy this form of art is. We bring up Mary J Blige, a great R&B singer, and Mary J Blige's music is an example of what we would call Sad Girl Music. Another artist we can think of that puts out similar music is Giveon. Most of his songs are about heartbreak which you could consider his music Sad Boy Music. The songs are great to vibe and listen to but we are worried about how these artists are doing mentally. This is a clip from Ep: 66 Sad Girl LET'S STAY CONNECTED!

Armon pops back into the studio to assess recent releases from Giveon, Brent Faiyaz and Chris Brown before deep diving the current state of male R&B.

Si & Veronica are waking up for episode 220! Nayte took to instagram to clear up any cheating rumors and admits to how people could get a fuckboy vibe from him but that is truly not the case. Elizabeth Corrigan from Clayton's season (and the other half of Shrimpgate) came out as bisexual this past weekend with Pride. Caelynn Miller Keyes went on Dean's podcast to clapback about some comments around how he hasn't given her a ring yet. Do you think his argument of how she has more money and should get him a truck first holds any weight? The Bachelor franchise is no stranger to whitewashing and racism, but this time it might've held Pardeep back from the beach. We want more brown folks on the beach! Pilot Pete almost had his own flight to the beach but said that contract disagreements held him back. Sure, Jan… (Bachelor talk ends at time marker 29m:48s) The BET Awards were this past weekend (all four hours of them) and we got some great performances from Chloe and Brandy and some not so great ones from Giveon.

There was something different about Justin Bieber's performance of his hit song “Peaches” at the 2022 Grammy Awards. The recorded version, which spent thirty weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, opens with a full-blast chorus featuring driving percussion and ringing guitars. But performing live, the song's instrumentation was stripped down, with Bieber alone at a grand piano, crooning into the mic. For a lighthearted song (“I get my peaches down in Georgia”), this intimate performance sounded overly serious on first listen. Slowly, the band built up, adding guest verses from Daniel Caesar and Giveon between seven repetitions of the chorus. Each time the chorus returned, the band got louder, the music pointing upward until a high-flying synth solo closed the song. It may have been a surprising arrangement of Bieber's hit, but it was the same approach heard elsewhere in the ceremony. The same sort of slow climb was heard earlier in the night when Maverick City Music, the first Christian group to perform at the Grammys in twenty years, gave an uplifting performance of their song “Jireh” off their award winning album Old Church Basement. In the church tradition, the slow build is a common feature, beginning as a quiet prayer that expands outward as more voices join in. Naomi Raine, one of the group's seven members, describes it as “this common and underlying structure” that feels “supernatural and spiritual.” While that familiar structure pervades the Christian music landscape, Maverick City Music has a greater purpose in their music. “We are called to blur the lines as far as what is Christian, what is Gospel, those two have been segregated for too long,” says the group's Chandler Moore. The expansiveness of the music is represented in Maverick City Music's diverse makeup. The seven core members invite dozens of songwriters from countless backgrounds to songwriting camps to explore the traditions constraining boundaries. Having only started releasing music in 2019, Maverick City Music has released over seventeen combined LPs & EPs in multiple genres including Worship, Gospel, R&B, and Latin Pop. Consistent across all those records is that transcendent slow build. After exploring the discography of Maverick City Music, one starts to hear this song form all over pop music. In the case of Bieber, who is both friends with the group and has a religious background, his previous hit songs like “Holy” and “Anyone” also unfold in a slow build. The reworked “Peaches” Bieber performed at the Grammys even makes sense given the chorus's final line “I get my life right from the source.” There has been a long history of stylistic exchange between the religious and secular world. There would be no Rock & Roll without Gospel, and Christian Contemporary draws its sounds from the 60s folk movement. Today, songs made for worship share qualities with modern power ballads, the former elevating the spirit, the latter coaxing our emotions. On the latest episode of Switched On Pop hosts Charlie Harding and Nate Sloan speak with Maverick City Music and listen back to songs both religious and secular that lift us up. Songs Discussed Justin Bieber - Peaches (feat. Daniel Ceasar & Giveon), Holy (feat. Chance The Rapper), Anyone Maverick City Music - Old Church Basement, Jireh, Same Blood, Used To This, Nadie Como Tú Coldplay - Fix You Céline Dion - Because You Loved Me Luther Vandross - Endless Love (with Mariah Carey) But, Honestly - Foo Fighters Learn more about your ad choices.

Back in the frigid streets of NYC, Mal & Rory rehash their weekend work trip to Atlanta, and how it felt returning back to their igloo of a hometown. The footage of them learning to fight crime in Detroit has been posted to our YouTube, and they once again reiterate that Dale's techniques (*might*) actually work. They get into Big Sean's Drink Champs episode where he responds to Kanye's previous comments, and wonder how Pusha T is handling the “reconciliation” of Drake & Kanye. This leads into a conversation about friendship, and how women and men handle them differently. Of course, we wouldn't be us if we didn't give people relationship advice they didn't ask for, so we try to help Justine through her breakup with Giveon (somewhat). New music is spoken on, Christmas plans, having a loose caboose, and more!
