Hip hop insider Bootleg Kev joins the show for an unfiltered conversation about the state of rap today. From Drake’s obsession with image and whether he’ll ever make a true classic album, to Kendrick Lamar’s lyricism, Eminem’s longevity, Kanye’s chaos, and the new wave of rappers changing the game — nothing is off limits. Kev shares wild behind-the-scenes stories (including a dinner run-in with Drake), breaks down how record labels secretly use bots to inflate streams, and gives his raw take on why hip hop feels broken… and how it can bounce back. If you care about Drake vs Kendrick, Eminem’s legacy, or whether today’s rap stars can actually sell tickets without bots, this is the interview you need to hear.
