Cumbuses, but we'll be open.

Welcome to the New York Times podcast.

You're cold like Columbia County and music news and criticism.

I'm your host, John Caramonica, with cameras on today.

It's not a, it's not a game.

It's not a game.

Justin charity from the ringer is here.

Jason Buford from stereo gum at all is here.

My man, what's up?

We're cameras on because it's a rowdy conversation.

Number one, we're talking about Lil Yachty and perhaps more crucially.

We're talking about the issues that arose in the wake of the release and the rollout

of the new Yachty record, which is called Let's Start Here, which is, and I hesitate to even say this,

not a rap album.

Maybe it's a rap album by some definitions, largely not.

But there was a tremendous amount of discourse in the wake of the arrival of this record.

Some of it happening in the comments, Jason's Instagram.

This is five, which is where all great, which is where all great rap conversations happen.

I agree.

Also, I want to shout out Alphons, Alphons Pierre from pitch four, who wrote an early review of this record

that led to some tweets and some other discourse.

I'll cannot be here today.
