This week on the Need to Know Podcast, Savon steps into his “Councilman Von” era (00:30) — breaking down how he’s mentoring college interns at Need to Know Studios while chasing side quests like a real-life GTA mission game (02:15).
At (14:15), they dive into Drake’s “What Did I Miss?” — from the icy backroom stream to the Chuck Liddell “Iceman” comeback theory (20:00). They unpack the LeBron, The Weeknd, and Kendrick subs (25:30) and debate if Drake’s “Scorned GOAT” energy is playing itself out.
Next, it’s Pusha T vs. Travis Scott — from Pusha’s slick shots to Travis’s weak clapback, and why not every rapper should die on the lyrical hill just because fans want it (56:30).
Then (1:00:50), they unpack Jay-Z’s quiet power plays — why Hov always sees everything, how he drops billion-dollar subliminals when it counts, and Nicki Minaj’s public call-out of Roc Nation (1:04:30).
By (1:10:00), they pivot to the real lesson in Nicki vs. Jay-Z: comparing her rant to Scooter Braun’s big machine tactics and why Cassie’s low-key Diddy lawsuit shows how smart money moves are made (1:12:30).
Finally (1:15:00), they share a hilarious story about Jamie Foxx’s surprise “grown son” moment, the secret kid paranoia, and the reality of avoiding messy headlines — with one last message about betting on yourself, side missions and all.
Big names, real talk, side quests, industry gems — this is what you need to know!
