Nyla Symone returns to the pod with a hilarious DMV story before SaVon recaps his vacation and gets roasted for his “eggs, ATVs, boats & hookah” Instagram habits (0:00). Next, the discussion turns to Gunna’s ‘The Last Wun,’ unpacking its high-profile Afrobeats features, familiar-sounding production, and the possibility of a shifting fanbase (11:09). The conversation shifts to JID’s ‘God Does Like Ugly,’ highlighting concise sequencing, intentional pacing, standout features, and its Album of the Year candidacy (32:53). The crew also discusses J. Cole ending Dreamville’s partnership with UMG and his decision to split profits with the entire roster, whether Cole could headline a Super Bowl halftime show (53:25), Bryson Tiller’s ‘The Vices’ (1:03:43), Tyla’s ‘WWP’ netting less than 4K first week sales (1:30:14), and much more!
