The cast actually has a lot to say - but you already knew that. Steph personally is tired of the people playing on her Fave Ciara's time and as the convo deepened it was clear to the podcast that there's some education to be had here. Listen in as the Psyce accidentally goes down a retrospective rabbit hole of Ciara's HITS, Deep Cuts, and overall sickeningness. In Honor and promotion of her latest album "Cici", the doll been outside a full year being in our faces and the Psyce is here to tell you niggas exactly why.
Yaya Bey stops by the Psyce to chat her latest project and dish about the ins and outs and ups and downs of being a recording artist. Listen in as Muse + Steph have an in depth convo about the toll an album can take, falling out of grace with initial audiences while blossoming in new ones with staying power and picking the brain of a singer with influences tied to a culture that the industry execs could never understand even if they tried. Big Shout out to MJG consulting and ART COR for the alley oop.Stream her music on all platforms and Follow our guest @yayabey wherever you get your socials.LIKE COMMENT AND SUBSCRIBE down to our YouTube channel so you can see us looking bomb while you laugh and listen.

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS ALTERNATIVE R&B. Please everyone stop the madness. On this episode, the cast is dissecting this specific bucket of music that the girls tend to use to separate themselves. Muse + Steph are here to break the news on what is and what AIN'T.Using a twitter convo that broke the R&B side of the internet about "White Boyfriend Music", your fave knuckleheads use examples like Kelela, Solange, of course Tinashe, and even FKA Twigs to debunk this ethos of Alt that is truly made up.As always LIKE, COMMENT, & SUBSCRIBE.
