🔊 Kenya Barris collabs with Cudi
➕ Lil Yachty takes over "Poland"
Truth be told, I’m not the biggest Kid Cudi fan (nor is he a fan of me). But I respect his work. Cudi’s latest project, Entergalactic, includes a Netflix animated film which is executive-produced by Kenya Barris, best known as creator of the award-winning and beloved Black-ish (ABC). The Funny Black Dude hopped on Rap Radar to talk about Entergalactic — and what a brilliant and insightful dude. Barris is also collaborating with many hip-hop stars from 50 Cent to Snoop Dogg to Vince Staples, but I’m most excited about the series he’s developing with Fat Joe. It’s called The Book Of Jose.
on my personal radar:
Still trending No. 1 on YouTube Music, Lil Yachty’s “Poland” is one of the year’s strangest success stories. For GQ, Insanul Ahmed details how the leaked snippet turned into a musical triumph. All I know is the hook is stuck in my head — and I’m happy for Yachty.

massive appreciation:
my mom + especially my pops for hitting me with the 2 Ts. In the words of the late great Ecstasy from Whodini, “You can say what you want just spell my name right.”
