Episode 113: Kendrick Lamar's "GNX" Review, J Cole's Rollout Getting Stepped On, Rhythm & Flow Recap
The boogeyman is back! This past Friday afternoon, Kendrick Lamar surprised us all with his sixth studio album "GNX". After his decisive victory in the beef against Drake and the announcement of his upcoming Super Bowl Halftime appearance, it was only right that Kenny dropped a full length project to capitalize on his massive momentum. We gave our breakdown and thoughts on the album, reacted to the the early reception, and discussed whether we think this is THE album or simply a taste of what's to come.
We also spoke on Cole's "The Fall Off" rollout being hijacked be the release of "GNX" and how we think Cole should move forward. We also recapped the first four episodes of the new season of Netflix's "Rhythm and Flow", a rap competition show. Friend of the pod, SeeFour, is one of the participants featured in Season 2 and we're rooting for him as he represents Boston on such a huge platform! Tune in and enjoy the episode!

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
