If you’re looking for an album that eloquently illustrates someone’s upbringing in a tough environment, while reflecting how it has influenced the person that they are today, it’s recommended that you “Follow the Wisdom” of this week’s artist featured on the Rap Thought Podcast, Che Noir. Perhaps this album is “As God Intended” (double entendre on purpose, hold your applause), but either way, Che kicks a lot of knowledge around the downside of being “Money Oriented”, where the focus should be on obtaining wisdom, growing up in a single parent home with the added absence of a father figure to navigate men and relationships, and maintaining a tough exterior to push through life’s obstacles. It’s a loaded album, but Matt and Brandon will help you through all of it and more this week.Check out more here!Apple PodcastSpotifyInstagramTwitter______________________________________________________Music by: BlueysportInstagram: blueysport

We all know The Slim Shady LP, The Eminem Show... most love MMLP and vehemently hate Revival. However, the one that doesn’t make a lot of conversations is Eminem’s 96’ project Infinite.

Tune in this week with Brandon and Matt as they take a look at this debut album, as Slim Shady explores the rap landscape with radio friendly lyrics in search of a niche to fit in.Check out more here!Apple PodcastSpotifyInstagramTwitter______________________________________________________Music by: BlueysportInstagram: blueysport

Join Matt and Brandon this week as they take a look at their 1989 project “The Cactus Album” and determine if the gang has the cactus, or are leaving people with the “gas face.” What does that even mean?

What if we are all animals trapped within the cage that is our city? Cults are popping up holding oppressive values, and it’s up to us to to traverse the “Yellowbrick” road to sever the “Goat’s Head”, all with “triskaidekaphobia” lurking in the shadows. If all this and then some grabs your attention, perhaps “A Beautiful Day for an Exorcism” might be of interest.
