In the finale (for now?!?!) of Yeah! our Yeah-nalyists finally dance with the one who brung them in the form of digging deep on Usher's "Yeah!" We touch on the connections to Jonathan's alter ego Freaky Constantina, dissect Usher's status as a sex symbol, get into a case of Crunk Juice, and try to put a button on the ubiquity of "Yeah!" as a lyric.

Kelly's prison drama takes a wild turn as he claims he was nearly poisoned by jail staff—prompting Skin to drop the line: “Jerry Junior, get Beau Brinley on the phone!”Plus, Top Gun 3 rumors ignite a fiery debate—will Tom Cruise fly into a volcano with Ludacris? Or is this just another Scorcher sequel we never asked for?And in one of the funniest exchanges of the episode, the crew riffs on R. Kelly's legacy:“Remember that week in 2025 when we lost three music icons—Sly Stone, Brian Wilson, and the guy who wrote the remix to Ignition?”“It's the urination.”“Yeah.”

Ben & Woods start the 8am hour by asking Paulie about his time at the Ludacris concert down at the Rady Shell, and the insane seat upgrade that he got! Then we play our last game of Take On Woods for the week before the guys are joined by Padres Assistant GM Josh Stein who joins the show for Friar Friday! Listen here!

Episode 87 kicks off with some light banter and shots at Duke Dennis for allegedly having multiple baby mothers, along with Trivelle demanding time in the studio to finally record a track with OShauN. The spotlight then shifts to the news of OVO R&B duo DVSN ending their deal and signing with So So Def, where they'll now be curated by Jermaine Dupri. This sparks a deeper conversation about the functionality of artist-led labels and whether they really work. The discussion brings up DTP (Disturbing Tha Peace) led by Ludacris, which leads to a fun face-off: Bobby Valentino vs. Chingy, debating who was the better artist from a musician-led label while comparing their top hits. Next up is Lil Wayne's ‘Tha Carter VI', (which has officially dropped). A sneak peek of a Mannie Fresh-produced single sets the tone for the group's reaction. That leads into talk about the Clipse and their upcoming album, along with the controversy surrounding their split from Def Jam, a move that allegedly involved a seven-figure buyout. The gang breaks down the label holdups around their Kendrick Lamar feature, which was reportedly being threatened to be censored or removed for taking shots at Drake. Staying on music, DJXP plays a leaked Lil Baby single that samples a Crime Mob classic. This triggers a debate on modern sampling, including what should be sampled, how it should be done, and some standout examples in 2025. DJXP then stands on a solo hill, boldly claiming that Erykah Badu's Baduizm deserves the same level of praise and acclaim as Lauryn Hill's The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. The conversation shifts to Taylor Swift buying back her masters, Stefon Diggs matching Offset's energy, and Cardi B's clapback involving the NFL star. That opens the question: does having a spouse actually help your focus in sports? The gang runs through a quick list of ballplayers who had strong women by their side during their rise. There's a quick detour into Toronto Raptors speculation. Could they actually land Giannis? Reality sets in, and the conversation turns into a wild rabbit hole about Paul George being the unexpected centerpiece in multiple NBA shifts, including the Finals and SGA's rise. The group reflects on how the Raptors may have been positioned to win another championship during the bubble years if the core roster with Kawhi Leonard had stayed intact. To close the episode, a fiery and emotional final segment breaks out between Trivelle and OShauN, centered around a viral Facebook post from a stepfather venting about being disrespected by his daughter and her mother.

On Episode 133 of the Guest Speaker Series, we welcome one of Boston's brightest young music stars and best performers, the one and only SeeFour! SeeFour is fresh off a deep run on Season 2 of Netflix's premier hip-hop show, Rhythm & Flow, where he made it all the way to the Battle Round, losing a tight contest to finalist Sura Ali, but received high praise from the likes of Eminem, Ludacris, Latto, & DJ Khaled. Since then, SeeFour has been steadily on the rise in popularity nationwide, and recently released the deluxe edition of his album ‘Spirit of a Warrior'. SeeFour dives into his experiences on Rhythm & Flow at length, as well as shares his inspiration behind ‘Spirit of a Warrior'. SeeFour also shares highlight moments of his early days as an artist, most notably winning Leedz Edutainment's Rap Race at the young age of 16, beating out notable established artists. It is there where he met Rob Kelley-Morgan, CEO of PutInWork Records, who has been managing SeeFour ever since. Their partnership is one of friendship, trust, and dedication that has made them both incredibly successful both together and individually. SeeFour describes the impact of Rob on his life, and shares some highlight moments that include a hilarious night at an Atlanta strip club, losing his voice on tour, and so much more.

Jxmie Blake is a genre-blending artist, producer, and educator whose work fuses jazz, soul, hip hop, pop, and electronic music into a bold and expressive signature sound. Known for his innovative approach to Ableton Push as a chromatic instrument, Jxmie is a multi-talented creator with a deep background in audio engineering, songwriting, and sound design. With degrees from Berklee College of Music and a client list including Ableton, Red Bull, and Ludacris, he's quickly becoming a leading voice in modern music education and performance. In this conversation, Jxmie and I dive into the creative mindset—how breaking the rules, following sparks of inspiration, and simplifying your workflow can lead to unexpected breakthroughs. We explore the power of limitations, the importance of finishing ideas (even imperfect ones), and how developing a strong relationship with your tools—like Push—can unlock musical freedom. It's an honest look at the balance between discipline and play, structure and spontaneity, and why sometimes the best thing you can do is stop overthinking and just make something. Listen on Apple, Spotify, YouTube Takeaways: Push as a Chromatic Instrument – Jxmie breaks down how Push can function like a guitar fretboard, opening up intuitive, expressive playing that bridges the gap between traditional instruments and digital music-making. Creative Freedom Through Limitations – Embracing limited gear or working with only stock tools can actually foster more creativity and deeper exploration. Breaking the Rules Is the Point – Jxmie encourages musicians to intentionally break conventions—whether it's stacking effects, pushing gear beyond intended use, or warping samples into unrecognizable textures. Music as Self-Expression – The ultimate goal isn't perfection, but expressing what's inside you—your mood, your perspective, your story. Reckless Experimentation Leads to Inspiration – Playing without a specific goal, just to see what happens, often leads to surprising and exciting results. Gear Doesn't Make the Artist – Even basic tools like GarageBand or stock Ableton devices can be powerful when fully understood and creatively applied. Teaching as Empowerment – Through his work at 1500 Sound Academy and his online courses, Jxmie focuses on empowering students to unlock their own creative voices, regardless of background or skill level. Creative Blocks Are Often Internal – As we gain technical skills, creative challenges become more mental and emotional—expectations, self-judgment, and overthinking can block our flow. Start with Play, Not Pressure – Some of the best creative moments happen when you approach music playfully, without the weight of needing to make something great. The Process Is the Product – Whether it's creating sounds, building devices, or finishing songs, the act of exploring, tweaking, and iterating is as valuable as the final result.

This week we were joined by South Carolina artist and producer Christou DaKeeng! Christou had a lot to offer the conversation starting with his beginnings growing up in the church and how that led him to a love for performing. His blend of singing and rapping developed from his poems and other artists who have inspired him over the years such as Ludacris and Michael Jackson. With music being such a constant in his life Christou has stuck with it over time and the results have paid off in big ways including a plethora of releases. He discussed his plan to continue to release on a consistent basis as well as his future hopes to develop more up and coming artists to help launch their careers to new heights. We appreciated the positive outlook and motto that Christou brought in his message. We hope it inspires you in the same way! Shoutout to him for the time and be on the lookout across his social media platforms for his upcoming drops!Submit a demo track(s) for release consideration with Proven Knowledge! - https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1l_h_XayHVqWIJHgTYyV5vGgThfRVEiBh8lw9SP8DrQw/viewform?edit_requested=trueConsider becoming a monthly supporter of the show by visiting the link here

On this episode of “Bad Speakers TV,” Ya Boi Shad and G. Downs sat down with the self-proclaimed prince of the South, Lil Scrappy. Lil Scrappy shared his life story, starting with his upbringing in Atlanta, Georgia, with his grandparents. Later, he moved in with his mother, unaware that he would stay with her for the rest of his adolescence. After relocating to a more urban area with his mother, Lil Scrappy faced challenges with kids who were more advanced than him. He also spoke about his mother's drug dealing, pimping, and hustling activities, including hiding money in various locations. Lil Scrappy's journey into hip-hop began when he started writing music at the age of 10. With his mother's financial support he engaged in activities like photo shoots and CD printing to promote his music. A pivotal moment came when Lil Scrappy met Lil Jon and signed with BME Records after his hit song “Head Bussa” became a local sensation. He also recounted how he secured a record deal for the Atlanta group Crime Mob by simply mentioning the group to the record label. Lil Scrappy discussed the success of his hit single “Knuck If You Buck” and how he felt compelled to jump on the record. He also spoke about the breakup of Crime Mob and the reasons behind it. Lil Scrappy shared his early hit “No Problems” and mentioned his first album as a joint effort with the group Trillville. He also talked about the tension he faced when he wanted to collaborate with hip-hop icon and mogul 50 Cent. Lil Scrappy described 50 Cent's personality and how he offered financial assistance during a difficult time when Lil Scrappy needed mouth reconstructive surgery. He also discussed his hit single “Money in the Bank” and how it led to a residuals deal with the WWE. The WWE named one of their pay-per-views after the song, and Scrappy continues to receive money from them to this day. He then talked about signing with Ludacris and how the deal didn't work out in the long run. He also discussed the hit single “Bang” by Young Jeezy featuring Scrappy and T.I. and how the song came about. There was also an unreleased video for the song. He spoke about Kanye West and his recent rent situation, explaining why he understands some of Kanye West's statements. He also discussed how he earns money from the hit single “Buy You a Drink” by T-Pain and Young Joc because they used the song's money in the bank. He also talked about dating Amanda Seales. He also discussed Love and Hip Hop Atlanta, explaining his decision to join the show and how the opportunity arose. He addressed the authenticity of the show, delving into the viral episode where he and Stevie J engaged in a fight. Additionally, he shared insights into his relationship with his baby mom, Erica, and his interactions with other cast members on the show. He talked about his podcast and his top five Atlanta rappers of all time, including who he currently listens to and his current interests in hip-hop.

We’re all going to leave behind something when we pass, be it $1 million or a damn good story. It all counts, especially to your loved ones. But don’t worry, you don’t have to figure out how all of that works by yourself. Jini Thorton is a financial expert who helps families in estate planning. We’re talking about writing wills, for sure, but also things like creating a trust or assigning someone to take care of your minor children. Oh, and she helps Ludacris with his finances. That’s star power, baby. Jini talks about why we should start legacy planning sooner rather than later – because wouldn’t you rather leave your loved ones with good memories, rather than a mountain of paperwork?

The Country Music Dads dive headlong into the world of children's literature, pop culture and its intersection with country music. We discuss the viral video of Ludacris' incredible rapping of the book Llama Llama Red Pajama, discuss our favorite kids' books, which ones would make incredible country music songs and who should cut them. Show Notes: 2:22: The Kids Books We Love and Love to Hate: Dave and Donnie discuss the nighttime classics and some modern-day page turners for kids (and those reading them to kids). And what would a podcast episode be without some conflict -- so we jumped on a few we wish would just fall behind the bookshelf. 21:27: Books That Sound Like Country Songs: Before diving into who should sing our kids' book songs, the Country Music Dads explore the fairly significant crossover between country music songwriting and children's book writing -- and some of those people who did both. Namely, Shel Silverstein. 38:34: Who Should Sing These Kids' Book Country Songs? From Colter Wall to Miranda Lambert, the Country Music Dads consider the best artists to bring these books to life. 46:57: Dad Life Sound Check: This recurring segment is an opportunity for Dave and Donnie to discuss a song that is hitting home in recent days. For Dave, "Buy Me a Boat" by Chris Janson had been resonating in his house, while Lasers Lasers Birmingham's "Shorter Letter" was touching a chord for Donnie.52:22: Change My Mind: Donnie challenges Dave to think differently about the glories of shopping at Costco -- from the sea of beautiful TVs, to rows of top-shelf bulk-size booze to Costco staples, like rotisserie chicken, availability of eggs and the $1.50 hot dog and soda.

According to a September 2023 Pew Research Center survey, more than one in five Black adults in the United States believe that owning a business is essential for achieving financial success. Although Black-owned businesses have experienced significant growth in recent years, they still represent a small percentage of overall firms and revenue in the U.S., based on our analysis of federal data.   In 2021, majority Black-owned businesses accounted for only about 3% of all U.S. firms that could be classified by the race and ethnicity of their owners. These businesses generated just 1% of the total gross revenue from all classifiable companies that year, while roughly 14% of the American population identified as Black.   In 2021, Black or African American majority-owned firms provided income for approximately 1.4 million workers, with estimated annual payrolls of $53.6 billion.
