No guest this week, but we still wanted to throw an episode your way. No worries, this does not replace tomorrow's ep drop. Anyway, Rory, Mal, and Demaris debate who had the greatest peak in hip-hop between Nelly, 50 Cent, Lil Wayne, and Eminem. Plus, who had the best 3 album run of all-time, and would you rather have an insane peak like Fetty, or a consistent slept on career like Freddie Gibbs? #volume All lines provided by hardrock.betSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We’re still a bit hungover after our Thanksgiving, but we’re back. Jussie Smollett on Cam Newton’s pod got Rory thinking we’re living in a simulation. Mal thinks Max B should know better than to perform a song he supposedly didn’t want to perform. Rory and Mal debate whether T-Pain had a point about brotherhood in the music industry. Plus, Rory and Mal list their Top 5 Philly rappers, does Rory really think Detroit can hang with NYC, we put each other onto new tv/music, 50 Cent on Good Morning America promoting the new Diddy doc is peak 50, and a voicemail has us taking trips down memory lane with our parents.

There’s a winter vortex headed our way for the holiday, but we still got work to do. Rory and Demaris had a run in with a legend at the Brandy and Monica concert. Complex listed their best albums of the century so far, and Rory ain’t mad at it. Mal might have a problem with their pick for the number one album though. WhoSampled was acquired by Spotify, but Mal got an autistic friend who could single handedly do the work themselves. Plus, Rory and Mal didn’t know Rich Da Kid had game like THAT, Julez Santana probably can’t read the description to this episode, and a caller wants to know all about living in NYC #volume All lines provided by hardrock.betSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Usually we got a guest for y'all on Thursdays, but this week we're flipping the schedule. Seasonal depression is real, but we got you with a new episode earlier in the week than usual. Usher suing Bryan-Michael Cox has Rory interrogating Mal about DVSN's "If I Get Caught" music video and where the funds came from. There is no reason why anybody should be throwing down at a Leon Thomas concert. Mal translates for Wale 'cause he wasn't standing ten toes down during his Breakfast Club interview. Plus, Mal thinks New Edition might be the greatest music group of all-time, but can they win a Verzuz against the Jackson 5? #volume All lines provided by hardrock.betSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After Mal and Peeje shut down the studio after our mixer Friday night, we’re back in-studio. Mal thinks Wale dropped a gem, and Demaris says Summer Walker is 3 for 3. “It Is What It Is” is about to get a bit more petty if Max B hops on as a regular. Rory and Mal debate who would win a Verzuz between Tony Yayo and Memphis Bleek. Mal doesn’t understand the backlash Pusha T is receiving for his IG caption announcing his 2nd child. Plus, Anthony Joshua vs Jake Paul might be the final time anyone cares about a Jake Paul fight, and should women approaching men be the norm? #volume All lines provided by hardrock.betSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
