Send us a textWhat happens when brilliant artists say or do problematic things? In this thought-provoking episode, we use Kanye West's latest AI-assisted music as a springboard into the complex moral territory of supporting controversial figures. The music itself sounds reminiscent of the "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy" era—sonically impressive and creatively ambitious—yet we can't ignore the context around the artist. When does talent excuse behavior? Is continuing to stream someone's music a tacit endorsement of their views? We explore these questions without easy answers.We dive deep into the psychology behind attention-seeking celebrity behavior, recognizing it's often more complex than simple narcissism. For figures like Kanye, extreme talent across multiple domains (music, fashion, production) might come with chemical imbalances and mental health challenges that manifest in concerning ways. As one host notes, "If you're that good at all that stuff, you're probably a terrible person... there's probably some chemical imbalances there."The conversation takes a meaningful turn toward parenting rights, particularly in cases where mental health issues are involved. When should one parent have primary decision-making authority? This question becomes especially relevant when discussing high-profile custody situations where children's well-being hangs in the balance.Beyond cultural commentary, we break down NFL free agency moves, particularly the Atlanta Falcons' strategy with Kirk Cousins, and celebrate the SEC's dominance in March Madness. Whether you're here for the cultural analysis or sports talk, this episode delivers thoughtful perspectives on the personalities and issues shaping our entertainment landscape.Support the show

On this week's Talkhouse Podcast, we've got two guys from very different musical worlds who've collided over the years in really interesting and fruitful ways, Vic Mensa and Johan Lenox. Mensa is a Chicago-bred rapper who first found notice with the group Kids These Days, but who quickly established himself as a solo artist around 2013. He's collaborated with an amazing array of artists, from Kanye West to Weezer and all points in between. Mensa's second proper album—there are lots of mix tapes and guest appearances out there, too—came out last year, and it's called Victor. Once again, Mensa displays an incredible agility, bouncing from fun to deep and back again; he's an incredible lyricist equally adept at party starters and deep thoughts, both of which are on display here. Contributors to the album include Jay Electronica, Chance the Rapper, Thundercat, Ty Dolla Sign, and may others, including today's other guest, Johan Lenox. Now Lenox did not come up through the hip-hop world, but rather the world of classical music. Hearing Kanye West's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy pushed Lenox out of that bubble, though, and led to a cultural mash-up called Yeethoven, which utilized a live orchestra to mash up Kanye West and, yes, Beethoven. Lenox has since worked as a producer for West, Lil Nas X, and many others, and worked with the likes of No I.D. and Big Sean. He also put out a solo record of R&B-ish jams called What Do You Want to Be When You Grow Up (technically titled WDYWTBWYGU, but that's hard to pronounce) and another record, also in 2022, credited to Isomonstrosity, a trio he formed that treats classical music like hip-hop, chopping and mixing it into something new and bold. Earlier this year, he released a string album called Johan's Childhood Chamber Nostalgia Album. But let's check out a track from the Isomonstrosity record that features Vic Mensa. This is called “Wake Up.” In this conversation, Lenox and Mensa talk about being inspired by everyone from Kanye to Kurt Cobain, about how Mensa wants to inject his sense of humor into more of his music, about artificial intelligence and the future of music, and a songwriting trick they recently learned. Enjoy. Thanks for listening to the Talkhouse Podcast, and thanks to Vic Mensa and Johan Lenox for chatting.

On this week's Talkhouse Podcast we've got the frontman for a band that recently made a welcome return after a long absence, and the producer who helped him find the sounds and songs to do it: John Gourley and Jeff Bhasker. Gourley is the singer for Portugal. The Man, which started making music in their home state of Alaska back in the early 2000s before finding success and relocating to Portland, Oregon. The band has an impressive catalog that runs the pop gamut, and weirdly they hit it huge pretty deep into their career, with the 2017 song “Feel It Still,” which is still on pop radio six years later. Just this year, PTM finally released a new album, called Chris Black Changed My Life, which both mourns and celebrates the band's close friend, for whom it's also named. The album was also partly inspired by the daughter of Gourley and his bandmate Zoe Manville; Frances Gourley has a rare genetic disorder that's touched on in this chat. But the album and Gourley's story is by no means grim: He's all about celebrating life, as you'll hear on this track, “Summer of Luv,” which features some assistance from another recent Talkhouse guest, Unknown Mortal Orchestra. You'll also hear the fingerprints of producer Jeff Bhasker on that track. Bhasker is best known for co-writing and co-producing smash hits like Kanye West's 808s and Heartbreak and My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy and Mark Ronson's “Uptown Funk.” He's one of several names that Portugal. The Man brought in to help realize Chris Black Changed My Life. The two talk about how that process worked, and in particular how Gourley is—unlike some songwriters—always happy to have more creative voices in the room. They also chat about which of them is a better singer, about playing at the Hollywood Bowl, about Gourley's life-changing jaw injury, and about Gourley's daughter Frances and the challenges they face.

He is one of the most critically acclaimed and commercially successful hip hop artists of all time, with a discography that includes eight studio albums, all of which have been certified platinum or higher by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). "LA Monster" is an unreleased song by Kanye West. The song was initially intended for West's ninth studio album Jesus Is King (2019) and previewed during listening parties in September and October 2019. West criticized the city of Los Angeles where he lives, saying it is controlled by Satan. The song was leaked online in March 2020 featuring production done by American producer Dr. Dre. The song is a dark and introspective meditation on the dangers of fame and the temptations of Los Angeles. West raps about his own struggles with addiction and depression, and how the city has a corrupting influence on people. He also criticizes the city's culture of materialism and superficiality. "LA Monster" is a powerful and disturbing song, but it is also a deeply personal one. West's raw and honest lyrics offer a glimpse into his own inner turmoil, and the song's dark atmosphere reflects the city that inspired it. The song has been praised by critics for its raw emotion and West's introspective lyrics. Some have compared it to his earlier work, such as "Runaway" from his 2010 album My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. Others have said that it is a sign of West's continued artistic growth. Whether or not "LA Monster" ever sees an official release, it is a significant song in Kanye West's discography. It is a powerful and disturbing look at the dark side of fame and the temptations of Los Angeles, and it offers a glimpse into West's own inner turmoil. Learn more about your ad choices.

Cyhi The PrynceFeatured Guest Bio:Telling stories of the streets through vivid rhymes and tricky metaphors, Cyhi the Prynce is a rapper signed to Kanye West's label G.O.O.D. Music. Born Cydel Young in Stone Mountain, Georgia, Cyhi was inspired to take his name when he learned he was born the same day, same year, and had the same middle name as Prince Harry. After releasing a handful of mixtapes, he was discovered by Kanye West in 2010. That same year he signed with West's G.O.O.D. Music imprint, appeared on West's album My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, and released the mixtape Royal Flush. Royal Flush II arrived in 2011, while 2012 saw him land on the G.O.O.D. Music compilation Cruel Summer. In 2013, he earned numerous co-writing credits on West's album Yeezus then, in 2014, G.O.O.D. Music released Black Hystori Project, his conceptual mixtape which honored African-American history with tracks like "Huey," "Coretta," and "Basquiat." A second volume, subtitled N.A.A.C.P., followed in 2015. The Stoned Mountain Playlist, a brief collaboration with publicist/producer Jonathan Hay, appeared in 2016. Cyhi's long-delayed debut studio album, No Dope on Sundays, finally arrived in November of 2017, featuring appearances by West, Pusha T, 2 Chainz, Estelle, and many others.Nearly five years after the release of his debut studio album, CyHi returns with his new project EGOT the EP.The four-track EP contains the previously released single “Tears” featuring Jacquees, as well as new songs featuring Baby Rose (“Help Me God”) and Big Bank Black (“Slide”). Additionally, the tape features production from Edsclusive, Bongo ByTheWay, and Go Grizzly. EGOT the EP is CyHi's first offering since 2017, when he dropped his full-length debut No Dope on Sundays.The 37-year-old rapper teased the project on Instagram earlier this month, thanking his fans for their patience and announcing his sophomore LP, The Story of EGOT.“I want to thank all my fans & supporters for their patience,” he wrote. “I've endured a lot throughout my life and career, and due to the on-going encouragement I've received from everyone, I've decided to release my sophomore album ‘The Story Of EGOT' this summer.
