Summary
We left you hangin’ for a few weeks, but it’s 2026 and we’re ready to kick off another successful year of podding. Rory gets a 2026 prediction correct immediately because Doechii and SZA dropped the first of what we think will be many collabs. Does this mean another Doechii album is on its way? Hitboy makes the best of a bad situation with his video for “Crow Bar”. Mal drops the hot take that Fabolous has a better discography than Jada, but do Rory and Demaris agree? Plus, Plus, Kai Cenant’s breakup got Rory and Mal feelin’ bad for the kid, we rip one of the most embarrassing wedding videos of all-time, and our voicemail ensures we remain the horniest hip-hop pod #volume
