Ep 350: Drake & Kendrick’s Aftermath + DJ Vlad & Macklemore’s Whiteness ft. Dustin Ross

This week Antoinette is joined by the amazing Dustin Ross @lookatdustin . They exchange pleasantries, discuss their thoughts on the recent rap beef between Drake and Kendrick, & deep dive into Dustin’s recent TED Talk.

For Politics As Usual, the conversation then shifts to the ongoing genocide in Gaza, the potential arrest warrant for Netanyahu, Vivek Ramaswamy getting the sh*t played out of him by Ann Coulter, Kathy Hochul thinking kids from the Bronx don’t know what computers are, a parasite eating RFK Jr.’s brain, the political landscape in Missouri, and the ongoing Trump trial in New York. WHEW!

We conclude with Pop Culture with a discussion around the controversy surrounding DJ Vlad’s recent exchange with a Black woman on Twitter, the role of white folks in hip-hop culture, and Macklemore’s new song addressing the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. The themes that emerge from the conversation include the weaponization of whiteness, the need for gatekeeping in the culture, and the importance of allyship. Join us
