Before we get into this week's film and music talk, can we have a little conversation about political leadership in the South? We're looking at you Keisha Lance-Bottoms and Greg Abbott! Our thoughts remain with the people of Texas as ATL braces for a (much less serious) sh*t storm.

On the music side of things, we're perplexed about this upcoming D'Angelo Verzuz and can't quite understand the need or need for secrecy behind the "and friends" part. Speaking of Verzuz, did the energy from 2 Chainz & Rick Ross' battle just spill onto NPR's virtual tiny desk? Also, Cardi B has broken yet another record and Childish Gambino has locked in another deal... and he's bringing Malia Obama with him. Yes y'all: Malia's getting ready to graduate college. Wrap your brain around THAT!

Well, Hip-Hoppers: in case you were wondering, it's STILL a sabotage when Jay-Z drops something on a Nas release date because they're literally on the same project. This week the two legends deliver proof that they're still at the top of their game on the official soundtrack to "Jesus And The Black Messiah" - with Hov hopping on a posthumous Nipper Hussle track and Nas going back in to make magic with Hit-Boy. 

This week we're also discussing the undeniable business savvy of Taylor Swift; how The Weeknd won the Superbowl... and OMG, WANDAVISION!!

Let's just go ahead and get this out of the way: what part of Philly cosigned THIS, Lil Uzi Vert??

Okay, sorry. Moving past the diamond in a man's forehead, this week brings us an official Coming 2 America trailer, which had Tai very excited... until Ciz started questioning the plot holes, lol. We're also talking Golden Globe nominations and how the diversity ain't as deep as they'd like you to think; new moves by Joe Budden, a new Nipsey film, an explanation from the Weeknd that literally no one even cares about anymore, and the dumbest man in UK radio.

Plus, we've got new music by Nore, Selena Gomez, JoJo, Brent Fyaz and Max B - who has clearly uncovered the Vybz Kartel prison studio power up.

Well y'all, Danileigh did a thing, as some of you already know. And Tai would like to use this opportunity to teach you kids a lesson about sneak dissin... and staying on beat. Mulatto, on the other hand is UNdoing a thing! And her statement about it is exactly the type of thing we love to see.

Plus, we have an update on Bobi Wine, Master P is highly upset about something that's BEEN in his power to change. And Logic tries to convince is that his alter ego is someone else.

Ding Dong, the crazy man's gone! But you knew he was gonna do some wild sh*t on his way out, lol! The new administration stepped in drippin' in unity and multicultural love and we are HERE for it.

Now that we can breathe a little on the political tip, let's talk Superbowl performances and random NFL x Verzuz partnerships! Plus, Cardi B is a leading lady and Pop Smoke's legacy expands.

We've also got new music by Ariana Grande, Da Baby, Smino, Zayn plus Macklemore + Robin Thicke tryna make comebacks???

Well y'all, we're coming up on 365 days without live shows! And while Dr. Fauci is telling us there's a light at the end of the tunnel - in mid- to late-fall - the numbers are on the rise again. And everyone from the Grammys to Verzuz are making adjustments.

We're also talking about Jazmine Sullivan's nearly perfect EP. And the two things everyone ELSE is talking about: Young Impeached Two-Times and the #BussItChallenge.

Clearly, 6 days was not enough time for America to get the BS of 2020 out of its system! So let's just get the convo about how these nut-ass domestic terrorists were allowed to move in DC on Wednesday. 

Also, Ciz is intent on giving Eminem his flowers, Tai tells us about her first adventure on Messy Clubhouse, and Missy Elliot is tryna lie to us, y'all!

With less than 24hrs to go until 2020 is behind us (hallelujah!) Ciz and Tai are taking a look back at some of the great, surprising and downright disappointing releases from July to December. And there were quite a few of them... so the Chopping Block Podcast is closing out the year almost exactly how we started it!

Minus the optimism. Because people are still outsiding like we're not in the middle of a panceta.

But we ARE here! You've rocked out with us for 48 of the 52 weeks of this crazy year and we DO NOT take that for granted. 

We will see you on 2021 when we've all arrived at the place where the money resides, Stimmy checks in hand! Happy New Year!!!
