The Rap Music Plug Podcast

(Go to 1:24 to skip the intro)

The featured guest for this episode of the show is Evan Sansom-Gill. He is a 25-year-old who is the Co-Founder of an exciting new app, Offbrand, which aims to help creators find their audience.

As he progressed into adulthood, Evan, like many of us at this age, felt like he needed a change. How that change manifested and where it brought him though, did not go as planned.

We discuss the ins and outs of the Offbrand platform, as well as how he balanced this business pursuit with his current day job(s).

Finally, we talk about the key force that has brought the idea of Offbrand to fruition: adaptability.

The Canada Emergency Response Benefit (CERB) program was introduced in my home country to address reduction/loss in income for people whose employment was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Since April 2020 the program has been running, and like many social assistance programs, it has come under intense scrutiny. I provide my thoughts on the CERB as a policy, along with a particular ‘mindset’ shift I bring up for consideration, that relates to where regular people’s taxpayer money goes toward in capitalist societies.

Finally, I talk about the upcoming NFL season, and give you my key predictions!

This episode of QLC TV starts with a review of the legendary Nas’ collaborative album with Hit-Boy, King’s Disease, seeing Nas in a much more comfortable space than he was on 2018’s NASIR with Kanye (2:00).

Next, as we all have been cooped up in our homes over the past several months due to COVID-19, I take some time to detail the existential angst that has come over me recently, which has fueled my renewed commitment to be a creator again and live my life with more intent (21:08).

Finally, I discuss the controversial NBA strike that took the sports world by storm, and the predictably awful 2020 Obama sighting that was of influence (38:10).

In an all music episode of QLC TV, I start by discussing the new single from Drake, "Laugh Now Cry Later", from his forthcoming album, Certified Lover Boy. Next, I transition into a general discussion about some of my common gripes with 6 God projects, while giving him some backdated props in the process.

I also deep-dive into underground star Mach-Hommy's new project Mach's Hard Lemonade, and the pioneering approach Mach has taken with his art, treating his music like rare collectables... and charging accordingly.

Finally, I debut a new segment where I highlight new noteworthy albums and singles that have dropped within the past month or so. In this episode, I touch on the new Boldy James and Jay Versace collaborative tape, new projects from Vic Mensa, (Liv).e, and Black Noi$e, and the new track "Entrepreneur" by Pharrell (featuring JAY-Z).

I begin this episode by providing my thoughts on Miles, the fantastic reunion double LP, and album of the year contender, from west coast hip-hop heavyweights, Blu and Exile.

Next, I discuss the implications of the United States Democratic Party’s nomination of Desi-queen, Kamala Harris. Additionally, I get into my perspective on the value of voting, within the context of systems and institutions that are clearly corrupt and not “for the people”.
