Manage episode 435787985 series 2939140
We had a beautiful and uplifting conversation on this week's episode with Boston's own, Yanna G! We kicked off the conversation discussing her newly released album "On Everything I Love", how she prioritizes her mental health, and what has been her biggest obstacles as she traverses life as an artist and a young woman.
We later reacted to Tyler the Creator's comments on certain artists taking up space in the music game, specifically those from outside the culture. We even shared our thoughts on Michael Rubin's comments about "Black on Black hate" and whether people should be able to speak on communities that they're not from. We ultimately ended the conversion on a high note, discussing the importance of seeking fulfillment in life and pouring into yourself & the people around you. Enjoy the episode!
