Another not exclusively hip hop podcast.

The host, Cole Cushna, goes into a DEEP breakdown of various albums.

The first season was a 20 episode look at To Pimp a Butterfly. He broke down the lyrical content and gave a context into Kendrick's career and life which influenced the album.

The next season looked at My Dark Twisted Fantasy. This season went even deeper. He went into a deeper dive into some of the musical theory behind the songs which made them so successful on an aesthetic and metaphorical level.

He did breakdown Frank Ocean's work earlier this year. But he's now going into The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, which ought to be dope.

Each episode is about 25 to 30 minutes. If you like to geek out about the meaning and subtext of the albums within this series, you'd find worse ways to spend your time.
