Lil Wayne Says NOBODY Can Beat Him in a Verzuz… Is He Right?

That leads to a bigger conversation: Do legacy rappers still compete with today's artists, or does their impact exist in a completely different lane?The crew also breaks down T.I.'s Kill the King, whether older artists can still make culturally relevant albums, and what happens when legends try too hard to appeal to younger audiences.Then we're taking it back 30 years to 1996.Nas — It Was Writtenvs.Jay-Z — Reasonable DoubtThey dropped just weeks apart, but three decades later, which album aged better? And was It Was Written actually better than Illmatic?Finally, the crew debates the greatest sophomore albums in hip-hop history — from Biggie and Kanye to Kendrick, Drake, T.I., Outkast and more.Drop your answers in the comments:Who beats Lil Wayne in a Verzuz?Reasonable Doubt or It Was Written?What's the greatest sophomore rap album ever?Grab our Merch! https://t.ly/WpzcOFollow us on socials: https://www.instagram.com/politickzasusual_podcasthttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100087464814983&mibextid=LQQJ4dFollow the hosts: I'vee - https://www.instagram.com/lifeandtimesof_iveeC Boogie - https://www.instagram.com/dareal_c.boogiePhil - https://www.instagram.com/phillyphil804Doug - https://www.instagram.com/justdoug_Trey - https://www.instagram.com/_treydmarkdTiffany - https://www.instagram.com/_sunshine9210PAU Official Photographer Kendall - https://www.instagram.com/iam__simpatico

Does Hip-Hop Influence the Culture… or Just Reflect It?
Does hip-hop influence the culture—or is the music simply reflecting what's already happening?
The Politickz As Usual crew is back for another no-filter debate on music, entertainment, relationships, and culture.
This episode kicks off with the controversy surrounding Young Miami's "Spend Dat" and India.Arie's criticism of the messages being celebrated in popular music. Can adults enjoy controversial music without endorsing the lifestyle? And what happens when the same music reaches young, impressionable listeners?
Then the conversation turns to public allegations and social media judgment, privacy in relationships, going through your partner's phone, Jay-Z's Target partnership amid boycott discussions, and the unanswered questions surrounding the death of a young man following a July 4 trip.
Finally, things lighten up as the crew debates the Chris Brown and Usher tour—and asks the question every couple needs to answer BEFORE buying front-row tickets:
Are you letting your girl get on stage with Chris Brown? 😂
From hip-hop's influence to relationships, celebrity accountability, boycotts, and R&B's biggest tour, the crew has plenty to argue about.
Drop your takes in the comments.
