Episode 59 of the Phone Home Podcast is here — and we're going ALL the way in.
We start with Two defending Drake's "Iceman" a week later, and things get deep FAST. Why did Drake keep Future close while beefing with everyone else? Who was really the head of the snake? And where does this all go?
Then we rank all three beef-era albums: Iceman, GNX, and The Fall Off — and yeah, we have thoughts on Cole.
Big Darrell drops his full theory on what Kendrick does next — Grammy run, UMG push, pop crossover features, Rihanna — and Smooth and Two tell him he's wrong. Who you got?
Plus: Drake, Kendrick, and Cole compared to Motown legends. Country Wayne doing 1.4 BILLION Facebook streams in a month. And a surprisingly deep conversation about advertising ROI that nobody saw coming.
Happy Memorial Day from the crew. Phone Home, baby.
