Hosted by Fluid , the goal of the Baking Soda TV Podcast is to help dope up and coming artists to gain notice and validation while getting the exposure and validation they need to deal with A&Rs and Labels. We speak on current event topics, sports, politics, etc. but our main focus is street level intellectuals and go getter types that thrive on succeeding by getting it out the mud. We provide the baking soda, the artists provide the dope.
Hip-hop is experiencing a rare moment of self-reflection.
Between Drake's continued dominance, Jay-Z's headline-grabbing appearance at Roots Picnic, and the social media frenzy surrounding Sauce Walka and Drake, the culture finds itself asking a bigger question: What matters most in modern rap—relevance or legacy?
For years, success in hip-hop has been measured through streams, viral moments, and online engagement. But a growing number of fans are beginning to shift the conversation back toward lyricism, artistry, and lasting impact. As veteran icons remind the industry of the value of craftsmanship and younger artists compete for cultural influence, many believe hip-hop may be entering a new era where quality once again becomes the standard.
Is the culture truly changing, or is this simply another cycle in rap's evolution? Baking Soda TV's Fluid breaks down the artists, moments, and controversies shaping the future of hip-hop.

Carolina Rising: The Blueprint For NC Hiphop Breakthrough
The Potential is Real — But So is the Gap
“Let’s keep it a buck — Carolina got talent. From Greensboro to Charlotte, Raleigh to Fayetteville — we got spitters, storytellers, vibe creators. But ask most hip-hop heads outside the South to name five NC artists… and they might stop at J. Cole and DaBaby.”
“So the question becomes — why haven’t we seen a wave yet like ATL, Memphis, Detroit or even Baton Rouge?”

Sold Out For A Check: The Fall Of Talent And Substance In Hiphop
🎙️ Fame is a trap. It looks like freedom, but it often means you’re under contract, under pressure, and under surveillance.
🎙️ The industry profits off pain. Labels sign artists who fit the mold—glorifying violence, drugs, and hypersexuality—while ignoring the trauma that comes with it.
🎙️ The cost isn’t just the artist’s to pay. Families suffer. Communities lose leaders. Kids grow up idolizing the wrong things.
🎙️ It’s time to take control of the narrative. If we don’t, the next generation will walk the same path—straight into a cycle of fame, failure, and forgotten potential.
