Happy Beef-mas (War Is Over) | Ep. 425

#craftbeer #drake #childishgambino After a hard-fought battle of hip-hop beef, the war is seemingly over — and though Drake fired last, he's taken home the loss. Between the smash success of Kendrick Lamar's "Not Like Us" and Metro Boomin's viral instrumental "BBL Drizzy," we've got to wonder how Drake will bounce back. Besides the music itself, we also talk about the way this phenomenon has been discussed, especially with those who aren't scholars of hip-hop, those who are black culture vultures, and others. Then, we hop over to the reassessment of Childish Gambino's highly praised "This Is America." Why does the internet suddenly hate the song and was it actually overrated — or is this another case of contrarian criticism for the sake of it. Finally, we get into some gamer talk with massive layoffs at Microsoft's acquired gaming studios and speculation on the recently confirmed successor to the Nintendo Switch. What do we want and what do we think we'll get from those mad lads at Nintendo? *Beer Of The Week* Crooked Can Brewing Co.
