We're back with a brand new episode to kick off the first week of summer — and we're taking it way back with a full-on 1970s vibe. We’ve got the funky energy, the throwback attitude, and yes... plenty of sweet tea.

Quick shoutout to Ya’ll Sweet Tea for being our and everyone's go-to drink during these hot episodes (not sponsored, just real love for a good sip). 🧊

Here’s what we’re diving into this week:

💔 Scooter Braun & Justin Bieber’s strained relationship — is it the end of an era or just a natural shift?

📺 TMZ’s new documentary on Michael Jackson — Who Really Killed Michael Jackson? takes a closer look at the people around him, and it’s raising eyebrows.

🎤 Tyler Perry’s powerful BET Awards speech — calling out the erasure of Black history in media and schools.

⚖️ R. Kelly seeks release — after claims of a murder plot by an Aryan Brotherhood member in prison.

🌟 Doechii spotlight — celebrating her BET Award win and her presence as a bold, queer Black artist during Pride Month and Black Music Month.

🎬 Movie Review: Straw — Tyler Perry’s latest Netflix drama starring Taraji P. Henson, Sherri Shepherd, and Teyana Taylor. We get into the real-life struggles it reflects, including the hard decisions parents face when life hits hard.
