In this episode the podcast is joined by RYM user TooBroketoCare to go over one of the most prolific and fast rising artists today's Hip Hop culture, Travis Scott. With an expert by their side the boys go deep into Travis's early roots, discussing his risk it all strategy and use of connections that led him to his connections with Kanye and subtle but speedy rise to fame through the ranks. They also discuss Patrique's old grudge against Travis and how he's managed to come around on him over the years. Along the way the gang detour into the decline in Eminem's importance, the necessity (or lack of) for emphasized lyricism and how We should all hate some guy named Jason.
