On this episode, No Brakes Nu and Jacq pay tribute to the late, great Malcolm-Jamal Warner, who tragically passed in a drowning accident in Costa Rica. Nu opens up about his own near-death experience on a capsized boat during his recent trip—and the blessing of surviving when someone so impactful didn't. The crew reflects on Warner's legacy as a good man, a quiet cultural icon, and why real ones deserve to be mourned loudly, publicly, and with love.Then the convo shifts to the opposite—figures like Hulk Hogan and Neon, who used their platforms to demean Black people and now seek sympathy or silence. Nu keeps it real: if you were a piece of shit in life, don't expect sainthood in death. Just because you shaped a childhood doesn't mean you get a pass. Racism doesn't come with a redemption tour over time—we don't mourn you the same, and we don't forget.Jacq also breaks down the controversial “T-App,” a platform where women anonymously share dating info on men. We call out the corny, the lazy, and the dangerous, and talk accountability on all sides. Plus: heat check on the latest fire music from Chris Brown, Benny the Butcher, and Alfredo 2 by Alchemist x Freddie Gibbs—heavy contenders for album of the year.It's a full-circle conversation on who we honor, who we hold accountable, and who we just keep it movin' on from. Real talk. Real mourning. Real music. Real kickback.#Kickbackers, tap in. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
