Episode 142: Caev on Touring Europe, Label Fallout, Redefining Boston's Sound, and Addiction
Caev is a rockstar in the truest sense - an artist who lives on the edge, embraces his contradictions, and creates from chaos. He's full of bright spots and dark flaws, and he wouldn't have it any other way. That tension is what fuels his art.
After spending time away touring Europe, Caev returned to BFTC for one of the most honest conversations we've had yet. He talks about performing in Budapest and Bristol, where crowds embraced his sound in ways American audiences haven't - and why that experience has him planning a move overseas.
He opens up about the reality of his label deal: getting signed, expecting support, and receiving nothing. He shares his vision for creating a defining sound for Boston that reflects the city's Afro-Caribbean roots and cultural mix. And in the rawest moment of the conversation, he talks about his addiction to weed and CHS (Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome). This is Caev UNFILTERED... Enjoy the conversation!

Episode 140: Will They ACTUALLY Drop the Epstein Files and What's Max B’s Comeback Gonna Look Like?
With all the political theater that's been going on in the past few weeks, we'd be doing our community a disservice to not address the whirlwind of news. We opened by reacting to the leaked Epstein emails, including a WILD allegation involving Trump and Bill Clinton. Before diving all the way into politics, we shared our quick thoughts on new music from Wale, Summer Walker, Meek Mill, and more. With the legendary Max B finally free after 18 years, we discussed how he should approach his highly-anticipated return to music.
We then broke down a poll of the most regretted college majors, followed by a deeper conversation on income inequality, the flaws in capitalism, and whether it's a system worth fixing. From there, we got into Democrats dropping the ball on the government shutdown, the fallout from the expiring ACA credits, and whether we think the Epstein files will actually get released after Congress’ upcoming vote. We also touched on Trump’s latest proposals, including $2K tariff payouts and 50-year mortgages, and closed with our Mount Rushmore of positive Black influences. Tap in and enjoy the conversation!
