Kids see Ghost - Kanye and Kid Cudi

We jump into the 3rd installment of the Kanye production month with the release of "Kids see Ghost".  The collaboration with Kanye and Kid Cudi on their 7 track release.  Since we are fans of Kid Cudi, we absolutely have our opinion of what we think of the overall production.

Amazon Experience Centers (Cumming, Ga)

Alicia and I take a visit to this well advertised Amazon experience center where all the automated services we installed a year ago. Is being rolled out into to new homes.  The one exception is the home delivery options that is way too expensive to just have scheduled on a regular basis.

  

Amazon has transformed homes intoAmazon experience centers you can control with your voice through Alexa, featuring the benefits of Prime, Home Services, Automated deliveries, and more

Does the media get a good grade for the first half of the year?

The team gets together and discuss Trump creating Battlestar Gallactica/Star Trek force to protect space.  Yeah, thats what I said.  Also we talk about what the media is really doing this year compared to the previous year as well as Some of the decisions made by the supreme court.  We were a day late on the Kennedy resignation.  And we almost missed what went on during the G7 summit.  We alsp delve into the racist policies and discuss fear vs. racism.  A very interesting discussion.

           

Kanye West "Ye"

As this is Kanye's month (June).  We start with his solo release Ye!  Even tho the album covers says,"I hate being bi-polar - its awesome".  Somebody is still a fan and somebody is done with his sh*t!!  But we both know that he is still one of the best producers out now.  we break it down!!

LiL Baby: Harder than ever

We delve back into trap music and review LIL Baby's Harder than ever 17 track release.  Since we have heard so much coming from the trap music community as well as the folks from Quality Control. Sean throws this young rapper on the table to review and get a good listen too.  A freshman for 2018, so we wonder if he will be part of the XXL freshman class of 2018. 

Ocean's 8 movie review

So as we introduce our new logo and Podcast name together.  Alicia and I go out to see the female version of Ocean's 11.  Called Ocean's 8.  Led by Sandra Bullock, we watch this new movie with skepticism and hope that possibly a new franchise will emerge with these ladies leading the way.  With hopefully a female director next time. 

 

 

Five years, eight months, 12 days and counting -- that's how long Debbie Ocean has been devising the biggest heist of her life. She knows what it's going to take -- a team of the best people in the field, starting with her partner-in-crime Lou Miller. Together, they recruit a crew of specialists, including jeweler Amita, street con Constance, suburban mom Tammy, hacker Nine Ball, and fashion designer Rose. Their target -- a necklace that's worth more than $150 million.

Women in the Primaries and whats up with the Media?

The guys come back together to rant about the media not having the guts to ask the hard questions and why are they still fearful of their jobs at the Whitehouse?  We jump into the amazing pursuit by women to gain political office to make the changes instead of waiting for Change.

   

Royce da 5'9 : Book of Ryan

We return to reviewing R5 after being disappointed by the Pryhme release with Premier.  We open up this new release "Book of Ryan" and he takes us to some where we did not think he could.  We listened to so many artist spill their soul into their music but did not think it would be Royce adding to the quality of music being released.

2016 Cotes de Rhone Villages Laudun Blanc

From French wine magnate Bernard Magrez, this fresh and floral, Viognier-based French white is pure, elegant, and impeccably balanced on the palate. Serve it chilled and relish succulent notes of tangerine, honey, and kiwi, and a deep mineral streak.

 

Childish Gambino - This is America (Donald Glover)

Because of the hype and interpretation of Donald Glover's alter ego Childish Gambino.  We talk briefly about the newly released video "This is America".  One thing I didn't catch was the lyrics because it seemed like a lot of repetitive chorus.  But check out the lyrics here for"This is America" watch the video and follow along.
