Podcast appearances and mentions of Kendrick Lamar

Q is back, and the guys break down their perfect pod day from the moment they wake up to the moment the mics go off, revealing routines, dream guests, and the kind of chaos they'd allow in the studio. They map out their ideal recording setups (2:51), and debate live audiences, surprise athlete pull-ups, Kendrick Lamar drop-ins, and whether baddies or bagels make for better ambiance (9:46). The conversation shifts into how each of them consumes music—relatability vs. believability vs. pure enjoyment (15:33)—before they go album-by-album through Pitchfork's "Top 25 Rap Albums" list and rebuild it from scratch (24:18). From Yeezus being thrown off the board to the absence of Pac, DMX, Nicki, and Wayne (33:13), they examine generational bias, regional representation, and why MF DOOM has a cult following (35:28). The episode closes with a deep dive on Kendrick's rise, whether "the machine" helped him, and what separates his career arc from his peers (54:52).

Episode Summary Welcome back to Grifty Pod. If you are listening to this episode without a helmet or a seatbelt, you are far braver than we are. This week felt like the entire nation had a stroke while standing upright. The Epstein documents dropped and inside that cursed file dump we discovered the soul bending phrase Trump and Bubba which was not on any of our bingo cards. Marjorie Taylor Greene tried to pick a political fistfight with Trump and it looked like two malfunctioning Roombas colliding in a hallway. Every headline seemed to be written by a bored demon trapped in a newsroom. So today we are taking you on a tour of American unreality. First we slide back into the nineties to revisit the DARE program which gave entire generations a deeply misplaced sense of safety. Then we blast forward to the current moment where right wing influencers are turning on their own in something called transvestigation which is exactly as deranged as it sounds. The circus is in town. Let us begin. What You'll Learn in This Episode The DARE Program and the Comforting Lie That Posters Fix Everything Charlie and Erika Kirk and the Digital Fever Dream of Transvestigations Is it A Grift? Real News or Fake Grift Fever Dream? The DARE Program and the Comforting Lie That Posters Fix Everything What DARE Was Selling The DARE program arrived in Los Angeles in 1983 and quickly metastasized into a national tradition. A smiling uniformed officer would walk into an elementary school classroom and deliver a series of highly scripted moral lectures about resisting drugs, alcohol and peer pressure. Children signed pledges. Children received neon yellow T shirts that glowed like irradiated dandelions. Children were assured that they were now fortified against the evils of the world. By the mid nineties DARE had infected more than seventy percent of school districts across the United States. It was not a curriculum so much as a branding operation. Parents adored it. Politicians bragged about it. The police treated it like a goodwill tour. The problem is that the entire thing did not work. Multiple meta analyses found that DARE had either no measurable effect on future drug use or effects so small they barely registered. A few studies found that students who completed DARE even experimented more possibly because children are curious, confused and easily entertained by forbidden concepts. The program was built on slogans rather than science. It substituted good intentions for meaningful intervention. It made addiction look like a moral failure instead of the complex social crisis it is. DARE was America in miniature. A shiny T-shirt pretending to be a solution. Why This Matters Today DARE is a perfect case study in institutional showmanship. It demonstrates our national desire for easy answers. It teaches us that if something feels helpful enough people will stop asking whether it is actually helpful. This is how grifts survive. This is how nostalgic myth becomes public memory. ⸻ Charlie and Erika Kirk and the Digital Fever Dream of Transvestigations What Transvestigation Actually Is Transvestigation is a conspiracy subculture devoted to claiming that public figures are secretly transgender. The reasoning is not medical, psychological or scientific. It is forensic fan fiction. These groups analyze photos of celebrities and politicians and apply invented rules about jaw shape collarbone angle shoulder width rib cage length wrist thickness and something they ominously call skull markers. There is no science behind it. There is no method behind it. There is only paranoia amplified by people who believe they are citizen detectives protecting the world from a conspiracy that does not exist. For years this fringe movement targeted women on the left. Michelle Obama was their white whale. They also went after celebrities like Taylor Swift, Meghan Markle, Serena Williams and Adele. Any woman with a strong jawline or athletic build was declared part of a secret gender agenda. The harassment has been relentless. But now the movement has turned inward. They have run out of enemies and begun pointing their microscopes at their own heroes. What They Are Saying About Erika Kirk According to the THEM article and recent digital surveillance here are the claims: They say her jawline fits what they insist is a male coded shape. They circulate side by side photos comparing her face to older images of male celebrities and trans women in transition even though none of the comparisons are coherent. They insist her collarbones sit too high and too straight. They point to photos where her shoulders look square in certain angles and treat this as biological evidence. They claim her wrists appear too thick in one photo where she is holding a water bottle. They argue that the way her thumb rests on a plastic bottle is masculine. This is considered a smoking gun in transvestigation circles. They point to her rib cage and claim it is too long for a woman which is a concept that has no scientific foundation but is treated as gospel by these content creators. Some go further. They say Erika Kirk is part of a hidden elite trans infiltration network. They call it the trans deception agenda. They never define it. They just insist it exists. What They Are Saying About Charlie Kirk The conspiracists accuse Charlie of similar fabricated markers. They say his shoulder to hip ratio aligns with what they consider feminized skeletal patterns. They claim his skull structure shows traits they have decided indicate a trans woman who transitioned early in life. They circulate old photos of him and create imaginary transition timelines like they are solving a case on CSI That Makes No Sense. They say his face changed shape over time and they treat normal aging as a covert biological anomaly. Why They Are Doing This The THEM article explains that this is what happens when you cultivate distrust as a political currency. The right wing has spent years fueling suspicion of trans people. They turned gender into a battlefield where everything is a clue and everyone is a suspect. Now the machine they built has turned back toward them. This is not about Charlie or Erika. This is about a conspiracy algorithm that can never be satisfied. When you reward content creators for uncovering hidden enemies eventually they will manufacture enemies from your own supporters. The Broader Crisis Transvestigation is not just ridiculous. It is dangerous. It treats gender identity like scandal material. It promotes body shaming disguised as detective work. It turns the public into unpaid inquisitors. And now the movement is eating itself alive. This is the logical endpoint of conspiracy thinking. When truth stops mattering the accusation becomes a spectacle. ⸻ GRIFTY GAME - Real News or Fake Grift Fever Dream? Three stories. One true. The other two were born from the national imagination which is not exactly a safe place to be. ⸻ That concludes our weekly descent into the archives of American absurdity. We covered nostalgia that never worked and conspiracy thinking that never will. The past is clownish. The present is unhinged. The future is unclear. Thank you for staying with us through the fog. Kendrick Lamar take us out.

From Rakim to Kendrick Lamar, this is the story of hip-hop's obsession with numbers. Dissect's Cole Cuchna breaks down the evolution of “number bars” - a lyrical tradition where rappers use math, numeric sequences, and wordplay to showcase technical skill and encode hidden meaning. Beginning with Rakim's groundbreaking verse on “My Melody” (1986) - a quatrain built around groups of seven that secretly mirrors his own 21-letter name - we trace how MCs have used numbers as both a mathematical signature and a symbolic device for decades. From Melle Mel's divine 7-count in “Superrappin” to Jay-Z's “22 Twos”, Biggie's “Ten Crack Commandments,” and Mos Def's “Mathematics,” numbers became an essential part of hip hop tradition and lyricism. By the 2000s, artists like Lupe Fiasco, J. Cole, JID, Vince Staples, and Kendrick Lamar transformed number schemes into complex storytelling tools. We unpack everything from Lupe's hidden 3–2–1 countdown on Kanye West's “Touch the Sky” to Kendrick's quantum-level equations on “Nosetalgia.” Learn more about your ad choices.

How well do you know Ryan Coogler? A couple of years ago, the Oakland-born filmmaker began “to reckon with the fact that the audience doesn't truly know me at all.” Which might sound strange at first. At that point in his career, the writer-director was all but a household name. His 2013 debut Fruitvale Station had earned him the keys to the Rocky franchise, resulting in 2015's acclaimed Creed. His next step was to helm a superhero movie that transcended the genre. That film, 2018's Black Panther, wasn't just another Marvel movie. It was a bold, operatic, Kendrick Lamar-soundtracked moment in the culture, that surpassed a billion dollars at the box office. In 2022, a sequel followed, grossing just shy of that mark and capping a remarkable decade: Coogler, critics raved, was a filmmaker who'd grown into the spectacle of blockbuster cinema as a Hollywood craftsman, without outgrowing or leaving behind the powerful character-based emotion and complexity that he delivered with Fruitvale Station.And yet still, the 39-year-old found himself concerned that for all that visibility, he perhaps hadn't yet made a film that was wholly his– his personality, his history, his family lineage, imprinted in the page, pressed into celluloid. Those films were his takes on existing IP – or in the case of Fruitvale, a true story. And so, he got to work on something new. A film inspired in part by his uncle James, who loved blues music and told stories of a different America. A film that had plenty to sink your teeth in for genre cinema enthusiasts – but simultaneously dove into questions he was grappling with, in the wake of considerable loss. Ryan's Uncle James died during post-production on Creed. Other family members had passed away too. And then of course there's Chadwick Boseman, the star of Ryan's Black Panther smash hit, who died following a battle with cancer in 2020, hitting the writer-director hard. Today on Script Apart, Ryan and I break down how those losses manifested in Sinners – one of the most critically acclaimed films of 2025. He tells me about the conversations with his Uncle James and his Grandmother that helped inform this vampire period piece, starring Michael B. Jordan as Smoke and Stack – twin brothers with a dream of opening a juke joint for their community. We also get into the meaning of Sinners' dance sequence, in which Sammy – played by Miles Caton – summons the ghosts of Black musicians past and future. And we talk about why this is a story about the joy of community when you look past the blood shed – the defiant glee of deciding to build something of your own, in a world that lets you own so little.

Matt Colwell or 360 is one of Australia's most iconic and beloved rappers. 360 erupted onto the scene in the early 2000s, taking home multiple ARIA Award nominations and two wins along the way. Peaking at #4 on the ARIA Albums Chart, Falling & Flying went on to become certified double platinum, and also secured wins at the 2012 ARIA Music Awards for Breakthrough Artist – Release and Producer of the Year. From here, 360 released 2014's Utopia, 2017's Vintage Modern and, most recently, his latest record Out of the Blue, which dropped earlier this year. Debuting at #1 on the ARIA Australian Hip-Hop Albums Chart, Out of the Blue offered a resounding reminder of 360's dexterity, dynamic flow and storytelling alongside magnetic new cuts Chasing Ghosts, Save My Soul and No Place To Go. With his trademark electrifying stage presence that has seen him enrapture sold out headline crowds, captivate alongside the likes of Eminem and Kendrick Lamar, or dazzle onstage at Lollapalooza, Big Day Out and Splendour In The Grass, 360 remains one of the country's most in demand acts and musical exports, with his most recent Out Of The Blue capital city tour entirely sold out; and, as 360 reveals, his passion for live performances has not waned despite a lack of down time between his many performances. He is set to take it BACK N FORTH across regional Australia in 2026, with an extensive run kicking off in February 2026. Tickets are now on sale! Check it out, links below.

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.In just the past few days Justin Bieber has been busy making headlines both on the stage and in the business world while also shining a spotlight on his family life. The biggest news comes from his wife Hailey Bieber who has officially achieved billionaire status following e.l.f. Beauty's billion-dollar acquisition of her skincare brand Rhode as confirmed by AOL and business wires. Justin celebrated this milestone proudly on Instagram, posting affectionate photos and congratulating Hailey. The couple's celebration appears genuine with Justin's public support and Hailey's gratitude for her team and fans as she took to social media declaring this is just the beginning for Rhode. Major outlets including Vogue and American business media have been abuzz over Hailey's accomplishment given the speed of Rhode's ascent since its 2022 launch.Professionally, Justin himself has stepped back into the music scene in a big way. On November 13 in New York, Justin performed a livestream concert on Twitch, his first standalone set of this scale since 2017 according to setlist.fm. Fans stormed social media with clips and commentary about his performance of Purpose and other fan favorites with We The Band. This public appearance is being viewed as a significant indicator that Bieber is seriously charting his return to live music and even suggests possible momentum for more dates or album news though there have been no confirmed tour announcements yet. Notably, Justin made an unannounced appearance late last month joining SZA onstage at Kendrick Lamar's Grand National Tour in California with Hailey present and supportive in the VIP section.On the business front Justin's fashion brand SKYLRK is getting buzz thanks to its blend of classic Bieber streetwear and fresh design touches from Hailey. India Today reports that Hailey co-designed several new pieces including a standout leather jacket and has spoken publicly in GQ and social media interviews about her creative collaboration with Justin and the couple's approach to fame family and privacy. SKYLRK's launch this summer marked Justin's first major brand move since leaving Drew House earlier in the year.Social media has been abuzz with speculation about new music and increased activity from the Biebers but no rumors of major personal rifts have been substantiated. On the contrary Hailey told Vogue that she wakes up every day grateful for her family and brushed off tabloid chatter about their marriage. Justin has been trending for fan events including a Bieber tribute night in New York and an upcoming concert series tribute in Los Angeles but neither event involves him appearing in person. No legal or personal controversies have made legitimate headlines recently and friends say Bieber's focus is solidly on music family and business leaving fans and industry watchers speculating about what's next for pop music's comeback king.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Join Here: ⁠https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0K⁠Analytic Dreamz breaks down the explosive Drake x Playboi Carti unreleased collab “Slide In” in this must-hear Notorious Mass Effect segment. First previewed by Adin Ross on November 10–11, 2025, the viral snippet instantly took over X, YouTube, and hip-hop timelines.

Fans are calling it an instant banger and potential song of 2026.

New episode! This week we head to Compton to talk about a MC who took the baton from all the legendary Compton rappers before him. Co-signed by Dr. Dre, he would eventually be known as one of the top MC's of this generation. With deep storytelling & next level lyrics, Kendrick Lamar spent the last 15 years giving the game some classic songs. From his albums to the classic diss track that he even performed at the Super Bowl (crazy, right?), it was time we dug into his music and come up with the Top 10 Kendrick Lamar songs.

⚾DODGERS DYNASTY & THE CULTURE OF CHAMPIONS”

In this episode of Litigation Nation, co-hosts Danessa Watkins and Jack Sanker dive into two significant legal topics that are currently shaping the landscape of litigation in the United States. Danessa opens with an update on Drake's defamation and harassment lawsuit against his record label, UMG, for its promotion of Kendrick Lamar's "Not Like Us" diss track. Danessa explores how the line between free speech and defamation has come into question in arguments on both sides and shares where the lawsuit stands since our analysis in Episode 61. Next, Jack explores the scope of the U.S. president's domestic military authority, diving into the history of domestic troop deployment from George Washington to Donald Trump's recent efforts in U.S. cities including Los Angeles, Portland, and Chicago. Jack discusses how these events and the resulting state litigation are impacting the balance between executive and state power. Join us as we discuss the complexities of critical topics and we encourage our listeners to stay informed about how these issues may affect their rights and responsibilities in litigation.

Steve Lacy, som är på gång med sitt efterlängtade nya album, förmedlar känslan av närmast outömlig utvecklingspotential. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Han var 16 när han hoppade in i bandet The Internet, och något år äldre när ett av hans nummer landade på Kendrick Lamars album. 2022 slog han stort med ”Bad habit” och fullängdaren ”Gemini rights”. Nya sound och identiteter växte fram mot slutet av 10-talet och låg som grund till soloalbumet ”Apollo XII”. En ny tappning av stenad Kaliforniensoul dränkt i rar lofifunk, ryckiga beats och lite kanjonrock. Steve Lacy missade åren då Tyler the Creator och kompani erövrade världen med lika delar provokation och musikalitet. Den överbeskyddade Steve, uppvuxen i strikt kristen miljö, höll för öronen när kompisarna körde Odd Future Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All. Saker skulle förändras.I avsnittet möter du även Johnny Guitar Watson, Wendy (från Wendy & Lisa samt Prince band The Revolution) och Ravyn Lenae.

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

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.

Confidence is king, and it can be soul crushing to have to start over and over. YOU GOT THIS! In sports news, World Series tickets carry a big price tag.

Welcome to the Bamgboshe Happy Hour: Pop Edition! This week, Peju Bamgboshe Rothlisberger and Naomi Bamgboshe unpack the biggest stories shaking the music and pop culture world:

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.
