About this listen

Music isn’t just sound—it’s power. It has the ability to inspire, divide, and even control entire generations. From the Punk Rock rebellion against Parliament to the all-out street battles of Mods vs. Rockers, and the East Coast vs. West Coast hip-hop war that rocked the 90s, music has always influenced youth culture in ways far beyond just catchy tunes. But is there more to it? Is music simply an art form, or has it been used as a tool for manipulation? 🎶💭

In this episode, Jordan, Richard Flopper, and Nigel Legend dive deep into the ways music has shaped (and sometimes destroyed) movements, controlled narratives, and even sparked real-world violence. We’ll break down:

🔥 Punk vs. Parliament – When the government panicked over spiky hair and angry guitar riffs.
🛵 Mods vs. Rockers – The UK’s first youth-driven gang war.
🎤 Biggie vs. Tupac – Did the media hype fuel a deadly East vs. West rivalry?
🧠 Conspiracy Corner – Has modern music been weaponized to influence society?

And of course, we’re throwing in our usual mix of comedy, controversy, and conspiracies to make sure this episode hits just as hard as a bass drop at a rave.
