  • I have been searching for this podcast ever since the album dropped. This is a total masterpiece, and I am not exaggerated to say I feel absolutely blown away to be here to experience it in real time. Thanks so much for your time on this. I'm so happy for you and your wife on welcoming your daughter to the world with this as a soundtrack, you are the protectors. Much love

  • Incredible CC insight from industry insiders

    The first three episodes have laid out such great groundwork for CC. I’ve read into a lot of theories and insights into CC, but this has been a little different so far. Speaking with folks in the industry, some who have worked with Beyoncé on this album, gives a different take for me. Episode 3 with Bun B was such a good visual description of the Houston rodeo. For those of us not familiar, it can be hard to grasp the depth and importance of the Houston rodeo.

    I’m loving all the new information... more

    To say that I’m beyond excited for this is an understatement, but I’m equally as excited for Rosenberg to give us his insight and analysis on this record!
