In Episode 4 of Season 2, the Shifting the Culture podcast delves into the aftermath of the Grammys, where Killer Mike's victories spark a critical examination of hip-hop's relationship with the once-prestigious awards show. As we question why hip-hop continues to attend a ceremony that often disrespects our culture, we explore the complexities of representation and recognition within the music industry. Next, we shift gears to celebrate the legendary hip-hop trio Run DMC with a deep dive into their Kings from Queens Documentary, offering insights into their groundbreaking contributions to the genre and their enduring legacy.

In our nostalgic segment, we remember the cultural impact of 50 Cent's classic album 'Get Rich or Die Tryin',' reflecting on its significance in shaping the landscape of hip-hop and its enduring influence on subsequent generations of artists. Finally, we turn our attention to Ryan Leslie's highly anticipated new album, marking his return to the music scene after a decade-long hiatus.
