Episode 97: "The Game Needs Saving!" (feat. Meech)

May 29, 2024 • Bad For The Community / Meech • Episode 97

We got a loaded episode for y'all this week! Friend of the show and talented rapper in his own right, Meech (of Van Buren Records) joined us for a lengthy conversation about "life". We kicked off this week's episode with some lively debates on Apple Music's polarizing Top 100 Best Album's list, Rob's conspiracy theory around Drake and Sexy Redd's collaborations, and the declining shelf life and value of music.

The second half of the episode is where things really start to open up with some deeper discussions surrounding identity and not being married to a specific lane, spirituality and free will, and how necessary it is to protect yourself against potential threats. On a more light hearted note, we wrapped up the episode with our NBA Finals predictions. Enjoy the episode!
