Description

A recent SXSW panel has lifted the veil on Spotify playlist pitching, and we have the details. Then we talk about Afroman’s vindication in court over the cops who raided his house in ‘22. What can Chance The Rapper’s ongoing courtroom drama with his manager teach us about contracts? Finally, why is HYBE losing money despite BTS’s record-breaking album release?

Along the way, we drop hot takes about The Beatles, Star Wars, cats, and more. 

And Cameron leaves you with some excellent advice in our Take It Or Leave It segment.
