This week KayTheRebel decided to chime in with her thoughts on all of the interesting hot topics. She revisited D-Wade and his openness about accepting Zaya, but this time defended those with an opposing opinion. Heterosexual folks don't have to walk on eggshells when they speak on LGBTQ issues. Being an introvert herself, KayTheRebel wished that extroverts would let her and others remain antisocial. With all of the death that is surrounding us, should it make us closer and/or drive us to repair some of our relationships? #RIPPopSmoke

The question: What are you most proud of in your life presently? KayTheRebel's answer "finding myself". On this week's episode, she discussed her long journey to finding herself and that now that her journey is completed, she has come to the realization that there are so many people who don't really know who they are. Some are struggling with the process, while others haven't even gotten started. A word with Kay: "Stop controlling the narrative if it's only going to be from your point of view".

This week KayTheRebel interviews her 3rd local rap artist "Keezay Fooliano". They kicked things off discussing hot topics such as Future dating Lori Harvey as well as the #girldad movement which Keezay stated he was a part of. Throughout the interview, Keezay voiced how important it is to live life to the fullest. He stays far away from negativity and instead has good times with the strong team of people he has supporting him. His most recent project is titled "Just Fooling Around" and feels this is some of his best work. Tracks "Parta Me" and "East Side" are featured on the episode.

Are you a lover or a fighter? This week KayTheRebel confesses how she has been a fighter for most her life and how in recent years she transitioned to being a lover. She didn't realize all of the benefits of being a lover as she truly thought that being a fighter was some sort of badge of honor. She encourages listeners to choose love every time if you can. For this week's "A word with Kay", she gives advice to listeners on how important it is to feel free in your relationships and to have as much fun as you can with your partner.

On this week's episode, KayTheRebel stressed that you cannot change who your partner is or who they may even become. In her opinion, sometimes it's unfair to even request or push for a change especially when that person is being themselves. She then applied that same perspective to relationships with friends and family. This week's "words with Kay" involved conflict resolution.

After hearing D. Wade's interview on "All The Smoke" podcast, KayTheRebel wanted to approach the mic with similar challenges she has faced while raising her daughter. She struggled with the question of if we (as parents) truly love our kids unconditionally. Although it was tough to admit on air, she stood in her truth that she probably would not be able to embrace her son if he chose to become a woman. Later in the episode she discussed a controversial topic of parenting....is it cool to admit that sometimes we don't like our children?

This week KayTheRebel discussed the "epidemic" of substance abuse in young hip hop artists after the passing of Juice Wrld. She took a trip down memory lane and pointed out how lean, pills and other drugs have always been a part of hip hop. Should we hold older rappers accountable for failing the younger artists by glorifying drug abuse in their lyrics? Should their be an example set? During the middle of the episode, KayTheRebel's daughter shed light on Juice Wrld's death and felt he knew he would die.

I guess you can all this a freestyle. This week KayTheRebel rolls solo and breaks down her thoughts on the movie Harriet as well as the mid-season finale of Power. She then went on to discuss "girl codes" and which ones she agrees with. The episode with her ended stating that majority of relationships fail in present society because a lot of people are quick to throw in the towel and not willing to do the work.

This week the ladies invite a second rap artist from Massachusetts who the people know as "Jeneral Mass". In April of this year, he released Out The Gate Pt. 2 which exhibits how he transitioned from being released from prison and pushing himself to the fullest limit through his conscious lyrics. Although Jeneral does not consider himself "woke", he shared keys of wisdom he developed while incarcerated. He professed that this mixtape was something that everyone could feel. During the interview, KayTheRebel explored his upbringing/childhood while Legend Eva focused on what inspires him to take his life experiences and express those events through his musical content.

This week the ladies invite Jay Gatz, one of Boston's talented rap artists, to come and chop it up. Gatz discussed the depth behind his music lyrics and how his family was the base of his musical inspiration. He released his new project "Good Food" earlier in the week and Kay The Rebel explored his growth as an artist since his previous project titled "The Real Jay Gatz". Legend Eva was intrigued by his confession of once being a side ni99a. Overall, Gatz stood by what means most to him which is music, family and remaining sucka-free.

The ladies keep the Male Species segment rolling as they interview their 6th male guest King Rube, 1/2 of Pretty Authentic Conversation.

The ladies have been working on a special segment which they will eventually turn into a series called "The Male Species" where they explore love/relationships from a man's perspective. What better way to begin the segment with "Darnell" from the Talking Greasy podcast? This gentlemen stood by his truth and spoke about his struggles with love & heartbreak. He answered questions about relationships as a whole and gave true insight on what men experience when dealing with women.

KayTheRebel & Legend Eva took a mini trip to NYC. They attended the live show of Passport Cutty & Tahoe from the So Shameless Podcast. The ladies randomly recorded an episode that same night while under the influence; giving feedback on the live show and what their thoughts were on some of the topics discussed in regards to relationships. Should a woman's partner be responsible for paying for her hair weekly? They also discussed single women and the stages they go through after a break up. Please be advised some of the commentary is extremely shady and/or offensive. #SueUs
