This week, Sumit and Chris review (kinda) the soundtrack for The Book of Clarence, directed by Jeymes Samuel. The hosts don't even know what the movie is about because it's out this coming Friday, but they love soundtracks.
The duo thoroughly discusses Jay-Z and D'Angelo FINALLY collaborating for the soundtrack for a 10-minute madness. You can also expect a candid chinwag about the importance of soundtracks to the film viewing experience, and Sumit and Chris end by highlighting some of their favourite soundtracks.

We discuss the production, the narrative, the guests, the likes, the loves and the tea. We also reflect on how the Little Brother story has impacted our partnership on this podcast.

People love to say “I don’t see colour”. Yeah, right. But when it comes to music, it’s true for us. When the music bangs, it bangs. Don’t fight the feeling. We're Hip Hop heads, but we're music lovers first. This week’s episode is a fun conversation about some of our favourite songs by White artists. Some of our Caucasian brothers have been trained in the ancient art of The Funk™️, and we are here to recognise their rightful places in barbershop legend and cookout folklore. Welcome to The MOWO Awards.

A couple of years ago, we discovered the work and sound of DK, a dope producer fresh out of Canada. He's since become a friend and supporter of the show, and it's only fitting that we pass the mic over to him so he can share more of his come-up story.
DK recently dropped his Atlantic Vol. 1 compilation, entirely produced by him, with features from Rasheed Chappell, Cesar Comanche, Carlitta Durand, UFO Fev, Wais P and Ras Kass. Of course, we wanted to know more, so we got into it.
