Hey everyone, just a quick reminder before we start the show that all songs considered,

like all of NPR's programs, doesn't happen without your support.

And the best way to show your support is by making a donation to the public radio station of your

choice. When you support the station that supports the whole NPR family, including all songs considered.

Just go to donate.npr.org slash music. There you can pick the station of your choice and help us

get more music by more artists to more people. Again, that's donate.npr.org slash music.

Thanks so much for listening and for all of your support over the years.

Bobby, what's up? What's Hannis in the Madden?

And joining us from NPR's Pop Culture Happy Hour, co-host Aisha Harris. Hey Aisha.

Hey, sad, I'm so glad to be here. And finally, here to share his wisdom and give us the inside track.

See what I did there. We got insecure's music supervisor, Kier Leeman. Kier, welcome.

Hey, thanks for having me through. All right, so first off, we just want to lay the foundation
