This week we're learning about everyone's favorite star of Degrassi (remember that) and exploring every corner of his unique, chart-topping style. We'll hear Sandra's Rose bloom with 25 rap and R&B-influenced hits full of hidden lyrical gems that keep Drake talking about Drake engaging for an hour and a half. The Mixtaper is bringing lawsuits, Rab Havztims, and whiskey records from the Top Boy himself! From God's Plan to In My Feelings, can this daunting record earn an 8 Out Of 10? Will it Elevate Connor's taste in rap? Worms.. we just opened up a can of those.

And if, like Drake, you find yourself asking, "Is There More?" YES! There is!

Oh, honey, let's ride!! We're celebrating Connor's birthday (DEFINITELY not forgetting it again!) with his newest pick: The Strike's 2022 album The Lost Years! We first discovered their single Overtime on our Singles Episode (#15) and now we're going All The Way with a dozen Painkillers that are anything but Nothing New. It's a feel-good, good-time alt-pop extravaganza, driven by its energetic instrumentals and unique saxophone solos! The Mixtaper's back with an inflated ego after his last bout with Connor and he's done the unthinkable... Will facts about bomb shelters, ambulances for snowmen, and bad bowling stump him? We also wrap up with a live-listen to their brand new single The Getaway! If you like desert drives, brass instruments, and custom combs... this is your episode!
