Join Here: ⁠https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0K⁠In this segment of Notorious Mass Effect, Analytic Dreamz delivers a data-driven analysis of rap's historic absence from Billboard Hot 100's Top 40 for the first time since February 1990. On the week of October 25, 2025, no rap tracks cracked the upper echelon, ending a 35-year streak sparked by Biz Markie's "Just a Friend." Analytic Dreamz breaks down key stats: highest rap entry at #44 (YoungBoy Never Broke Again's "Shot Callin"), #48 (Cardi B feat. Kehlani's "Safe"), and #49 (BigXthaPlug feat. Ella Langley's "Hell at Night"). Kendrick Lamar & SZA's "Luther" fell off after 46 weeks (13 at #1), triggered by Billboard's October 2025 recurrent rule changes—removing songs below #25 after 26 weeks (vs. old 25-week threshold below #10). Hip-hop's U.S. market share dropped from 30% peak in 2020 to 24% YTD 2025 per Luminate. Analytic Dreamz examines competition: Taylor Swift's album occupies 12 Top 40 spots, K-pop soundtracks claim 7. Additional factors include streaming biases, artist dormancy (Drake, Kendrick), legal issues, and genre fragmentation. As of November 1, the drought hits two weeks, with "Shot Callin" at #43. Analytic Dreamz explores cultural reactions and whether this signals rap's cyclical shift amid pop dominance.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The Word on Pop Cultures continues its series of the 100 best songs since 2000 with Part 6, featuring songs by Taylor Swift, Kendrick Lamar, Lady Gaga and more.

This month we're in the slightly more recent past as we tackle 2015 which was only 18 months before the podcast began. (although is allegedly a decade ago despite feeling like last week). There's ethereal pop, modern classical piano epics, unsettling hiphop and an interesting new conspiracy theory about the nation of Iceland. We've each chosen our 10 favourite songs of the year and sent them over to Colin's wife Helen, who put the playlists together and distributed them so we were each given a playlist of the 20 songs from the other two hosts, along with our own 10. We then ranked the playlists in order of preference and sent them back to Helen, who totalled up the points and worked out the order.She also joined us on the episode to read out the countdown, which we found out as we recorded so all reactions are genuine.Now, admittedly, in parts we're a little bit brutal to some of the songs in the list as we're three separate people with differing music tastes, but please remember that to be in this episode at all the songs have to have been in one of our top 10's of that year.Bands featured in this episode include (In alphabetical order, no spoilers here!) - Ahab, VLMV, Aurora, Julien Baker, The Chemical Brothers, Beck, Destroyer, Earl Sweatshirt, Envy, Father John Misty, Fear Factory, Ghost, Goatsnake, John Grant, Jamie XX, Carly Rae Jepsen, Kathryn Joseph, Kendrick Lamar, Lanterns On The Lake, Leprous, Little Mix, Low, Lubomry Melnyk, Pastel Ghost, Pinkshinyultrablast, Mark Ronson, Bruno Mars, Soley, Sufjan Stevens, Waxahatchee, Steven Wilson, & Wolf Alice. Find all songs in alphabetical order here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2eXXu2uUDKI5EhiuZeWlRS?si=61bb5362ccbb45d5Also, very excitingly Ian has just released his new album "Please Hesitate To Contact Me" under the name The Grief Executive. 33 minutes of ultra-eclectic office themed exasperation taking in influences from industrial metal, 90s r&b, hiphop & grindcore. You can find it on bandcamp here - https://thegriefexecutive.bandcamp.com/album/please-hesitate-to-contact-me or on Spotify here - https://open.spotify.com/album/681opO2y8aeWoKo3CVH95v?si=R3oz68GtQMCZ3XSJak8i8w.

The scoring of our own list of 10 is now slightly more complicated in order to give a truer level of points to our own favourites. So rather than them only being able to score as many points as our 10th favourite in the other list, the points in our own list were distributed as follows -1st place - 20 points2nd place - 18 points3rd place – 16 points4th place – 14 points5th place – 12 points6th place – 9 points7th place – 7 points8th place – 5 points9th place – 3 points10th place -1 pointHosts - Ian Clarke, Colin Jackson-Brown & Tracey BGuest starring Helen Jackson-Brown.Playlist compiling/distributing – Helen Jackson-BrownRecorded/Edited/Mixed/Original Music by Colin Jackson-Brown for We Dig PodcastsThanks to Peter Latimer for help with the scoring system.Part of the We Dig Podcasts network along with Free With This Months Issue & Pick A Disc.Bluesky - https://bsky.app/profile/wedigmusic.bsky.socialInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/wedigmusicpcast/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/wedigpusicpcast/Find our other episodes & podcasts at www.wedigpodcasts.com 

Face it, everyone loves a good fight. And musicians and singers are always adding an extra layer to their entertainment value - intentionally or accidentally - by engaging in battles with their peers. Some of these feuds are exaggerated and some are underplayed. Some have an obvious bad guy while in others it seems like both parties should share the blame. Some seem to be about nothing, and others seem to be about everything. It seemed like the stakes couldn't have been higher than they were in the recent Drake vs. Kendrick Lamar feud ... that is, until you remembered Tupac Shakur vs. The Notorious B.I.G. (both of whom died from drive-by shootings just months apart). Internal wars chipped away at some of rock's best bands - from the Beatles and The Kinks to Pink Floyd and Fleetwood Mac. Meanwhile, some of the most iconic singers were locked in bitter rivalries, including Prince and Michael Jackson as well as Axl Rose and Kurt Cobain. Then there were the entertaining battles of the divas - Cher vs. Madonna, Elton John vs. Madonna, Whitney Houston vs. Mariah Carey, Mariah Carey vs. Jennifer Lopez. ... And we'll never forget the most inexplicable feud that just seems to go on and on: Kanye West vs. Taylor Swift. This week your hosts of "How We Heard It" recap all of these fights and many more - the ones that made them laugh, the ones that made them wince and the ones that made them scratch their heads. They also take a look at the artist who seems to be fighting the entire world. Even if you've never heard of her.

(at least i went into the recording with the intention of it being a shorter ep but clearly i had a lot to say) In light of the previous mini ep - i'm gonna go through Past Superbowl Halftime Performances and re-react to them, starting with last year's 'victory lap' for Kendrick Lamar. tune in to re-live it with me!  SOCIALS: @boominwithbella Playlists: bellalainez on Spotify and Apple Music YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@boominwithbella

On this episode of the MalloryBros. podcast, the Bros. start with a usual weekend recap. Terrance met our sister's new cat, and they both have thoughts on these new Wendy's Tenders. They then get into quite literally the most unhinged random debate about The Lion King you'll ever see, you should be thoroughly entertained. Next they talk the biggest news of the week: Drake losing his lawsuit with UMG over Kendrick Lamar's “Not Like Us.” The guys talk Drake's next move, Iceman, and if it was worth it. They then take a film turn, discussing "One Battle After Another" flopping at the box office despite rave reviews, what that means, and how it compares to Sinners. The Bros. move on to the new Game of Thrones spinoff and ask if they even care, touching on audience fatigue with short seasons and long waits between them. After a week where he seemed more passive about AI, Terrance gets tricked by an AI video and changes his tune. They then talk LeBron's Hennessy deal, and Terrell highlights the growing issue of too many Black millionaires selling us alcohol. A Lil Wayne conversation about changing his diet sparks a great talk about how people will hold you accountable to the patterns you create. They close out with football talk as Terrance's game is literally happening during the pod.

Joe Escalante's weekly bragging about managing the Billboard #1 Alt band in the country (as he should!!!). This week: Joe's theories about why AM radio isn't in some cars (it's the libs)... Someone had a heart attack at Disneyland... or did they...? Operation: Parachute is in effect...Also, the latest from the Box Office... If you ignore Taylor Swift... Roofman gets Joe's Offical Stamp of Approval. And Drake lost his lawsuit against his own record label for promoting the most epic diss in rap battle history from Kendrick Lamar. Needless to say, if you sue the guy that dissed you, and you lost the lawsuit, you also lost the rap battle.

On today's podcast , Hosts Ramses Ja and Q Ward look at Rap Superstar Kendrick Lamar's ongoing success in the world of music. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Fall came in colder than an ex's heart, and Ryan and Joyhdae are officially over it. This week's episode starts with the great seasonal betrayal—one minute it's 80 degrees, the next you're waking up to 43 and questioning your life choices. From there, it's all downhill—or uphill, depending on how you feel about government shutdowns, Dolly Parton confusion, and Kamala Harris finally saying what we've all been thinking.Ryan and Joyhdae unpack a week that felt like America's group chat gone wrong. Kamala Harris dropped a perfectly timed “these motherfuckers are crazy,” and we've decided that's the energy we're carrying for the rest of the year. Meanwhile, the government still can't get its act together, Trump is threatening federal workers' paychecks, and somehow people are still trying to climb Mount Everest like it's a team-building exercise.If that's not enough chaos, Drake took another L—this time in court—proving Kendrick Lamar really ended the saga months ago. Dolly Parton's sister had everyone online planning candlelight vigils for no reason, Ayesha Curry reminded people that honesty about marriage is still too much for the internet, and Reading Rainbow is officially getting a reboot with Mychal the Librarian leading the way. Joyhdae also names her mother “El Chapo” and Ryan might have discovered family lies through an ancestry test, because of course he did.It's messy, it's real, it's deeply funny, and it's exactly what you need to get through another week in this ridiculous timeline.If you laughed, yelled, or side-eyed someone while listening, make sure to subscribe, hit like, and drop a comment telling us your favorite part of the episode.

Titled after the Kendrick Lamar feature in the latter portion of the installment, welcome to I'm Dying of Thirst. The newest episode curated by your favorite internet disc jockey, DJ Witwickatron. A hip-hip majority installment starting in the 90's and ending at current features. I do love the Jai Paul demo soundcloud playlist, but outside of that? My favorite portions of this episode would be Wu-Tang's Black Diamonds, Beastie Boys live on David Letterman, Paul Wall Sittin' Sideways on vinyl and the Jay Electronica run featuring the closing stanza of Eternal Sunshine. Boylife in EU by Yung Lean makes me smile as well. I really ended up enjoying this episode, I hope you did the same. In other unrelated news, just yesterday I was lucky enough to give a really nice, beautiful lady a bouquet of roses for the first time in my life. Peachy, dusty pink roses that I spent time picking out, found a vase at a separate fancy location and really enjoyed the whole process. No reason in relaying this message to my internet populous other than to let you know that DJ Witwicky is out here balling out of control in real life. Thank you, as always, for being here. I'll be byck with another handful of game next weekend.Polka King of the Midwest,DJ Witwicky

Handel on the Law. Marginal Legal Advice. A caller loaned an employee his personal car and he accidentally killed someone. The lawyers of the person who was killed are asking about assets, what happens next? Also, in California, can you do probate yourself without an attorney, when handling a will? And a caller is trying to avoid a realtor's potential defamation case when he puts signage on his lawn to prevent his neighbor from turning his home into a mental care facility.

Forget about Puerto Rican crooner Bad Bunny, there's a new alternative to the 2026 Super Bowl halftime show. Charlie Kirk's organization Turning Point said it would put on counter programming but did not say who it would be. Kendrick Lamar's Drake diss track “Not Like Us” is off the hook. Drake sued Universal Music for defamation, but the case has been dismissed because the lyrics are opinion not fact. Jimmy Kimmel said he would love to have President Trump on his talk show amid tanking viewership. The craft beer bubble has burst, leading to breweries closing or downsizing. It's nearly a $30 billion industry. What are the six things that make someone cool?

In the final installment of our Sacred Secular Syncopated series, Emily Austin and theologian-writer Femi Olutade dive deep into the sacred undercurrents of hip-hop — from The Message to To Pimp a Butterfly. Drawing on scripture, Orthodox theology, and the language of transformation, they explore how artists like Tupac Shakur and Kendrick Lamar turn lived struggle into spiritual reflection.What begins as a discussion of protest music becomes an invitation to rethink repentance (metanoia) — not as punishment, but as change of mind, heart, and being. Through examples from good kid, m.A.A.d city, DAMN., and Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers, Femi unpacks how Lamar's art embodies an ongoing conversion — personal, communal, and divine.Femi Olutade is a theologian, writer, and father whose work explores the intersection of faith, art, and culture through an Orthodox Christian lens. He is best known for authoring the script of Season 5 of the Dissect podcast, a 20-episode analysis of Kendrick Lamar's DAMN. — winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Music.Find Femi's work:

After doing a few episodes on scandals and artists who did time in prison, we're flipping the script and shining a light on the good people in music – artists who pay it forward and have a reputation for just being good people.  We've got Dolly Parton sending books to kids through her Imagination Library and Alice Cooper swinging his golf clubs to fund youth programs. Ludacris donating school supplies and clothes to thousands of kids and Jon Bon Jovi fighting poverty through his Soul Foundation. Taylor Swift, U2, Elton John, Kendrick Lamar – these aren't just stars; they're the real deal.  In a world full of headlines that drag us down, these artists prove music can lift us up. So join us as we celebrate the heart behind the hits. Let's roll!

On episode 99 of Native Land Pod, hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum talk shutdowns, Bad Bunny at the super bowl, and a new directive from Trump to go after “domestic terrorists.” Republicans and Democrats are once again at an impasse on the budget, meaning the federal government is officially shut down. Democrats are making a stand over health care. The Trump administration is threatening to use the shutdown to enact more cuts and layoffs. Our hosts outline what’s at risk and predict what comes next. Puerto Rican super star Bad Bunny has been tapped to perform at this year’s Super Bowl halftime show amidst a direct assault on the Hispanic community by ICE and the federal government. It recalls Kendrick Lamar’s politically charged performance last year. Do these performances have an impact, and if so, what is it? Why isn’t the media covering NSPM-7? In what could be the biggest change to national security since the Patriot Act, President Trump has directed the FBI, the IRS, and other federal agencies to go after domestic “terrorists.” Non-profits that support progressive causes and shows like ours could now face terrorism charges for “fomenting political violence.” This is probably the biggest underreported story of the year!
