Today’s episode of the podcast, we do something different by doing a video podcast for the very first time!

While I’m still figuring out a new format and limited in terms of length for videos, I decided to go back to basics and do album review much like how we did for the first episode for our review of Dr. Dre’s Compton.

The review for today’s roughly 20 minute episode is Ghetto Gods by EarthGang.

EarthGang are a promising duo out of Atlanta signed to J.Cole’s Dreamville records, that in 2019 release their studio debut to wide acclaim after being independent for several years. So naturally, I was excited to hear it.

I was first introduced to the group during my brief stint as part of the CentralSauce Collective. I was thorough impressed by their versatility on Mirrorland and thought they were a breath of fresh air from the various trap artists and Drake clones.

In addition to my full review of Ghetto Gods, I briefly touch on the SuperBowl halftime show this year featuring Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Kendrick Lamar, Mary J. Blige, and 50 Cent before the camera stopped rolling.

This episode is a return to a solo episode. After some time away, Brian is back from his time in British Columbia and gets into the Megan Thee Stallion album, Good News; his freelance work with Complex Canada, and his take on a new rap group.
