About this episode

The episode features a discussion on hip-hop history, the music industry, relationships, and current events with guest Hitmaka.

On this week’s episode of Black Out, the conversation starts with a heated debate about the best Southern rappers in hip-hop history and the underrated legends from the Midwest that helped shape the culture.

The crew also talks about reprogramming your algorithm, planning an exit strategy, family decisions, and what it really takes to build something meaningful today. To close the episode, the conversation turns to current events and wild internet topics — including tensions around Iran, Bill and Hillary Clinton’s testimony connected to the Epstein files…
