About this episode
This episode discusses new music releases, hip-hop beefs, and critiques of concert pricing and ticketing companies.
Plenty to talk about in this week's installment of Music This Week. We got new releases galore, some old faces, some new faces, some aliens? Jay-Z talked about hip-hop beefs, so we talk about him talking about hip-hop beefs. Priced out of concerts? Psh, same, brother, same. Let's dump on Ticketmaster and LiveNation some more! Spencer guides us through the headlines, and we give him our opines...(Eh, I don't love that joke, but I'm keeping it in.) Thanks for listening!
