  • Don't call it a comeback. Tap into the latest episode of The Shop with Lena Waithe, Mo Gilligan, Trent Williams, Teddy Swims and the legendary LL COOL J.
    PR and Maverick talk to Lena about the impact and authenticity of her show The Chi, her approach to writing and evolving as a creative. LL walks the crew through what led to and inspired his upcoming album, produced by Q-Tip, and longevity in Hip-Hop. Trent opens up about his cancer diagnosis, how that changed his approach to life and the experience of making it to the Super Bowl. Mo tells hilarious stories from his stand-up appearances and coming up in South London. Teddy talks about how covering classic songs led to his blowing up on social media and breaks down his genre-less style of music.

    I love that LL is keeping it 100% Authentic and honest and being real. In a world full of people who are afraid to give there honest opinion with out fear, to watch a successful, confident, humble man who is sure about who he is as a human being is a breath of fresh air. I love this episode.

    Lena is brilliant. A needed voice and super sharp. LL's an OG (among the greats no doubt. Love his music) - but his path / opinion is different and that's.. his. Trust your gut / skill with the choices Lena (The Chi and beyond, trust the hunch about the Chi ending. Smart.). And thank you for Queen and Slim! Huge fan of Andre 3k too and he can play as many flutes as he wants man! He doesn't need to be the greatest flute player ever, his efforts bring meaning and joy (no matter to how many) ..and that's good enough.

The Trent cancer story got me, just hearing and seeing the reaction of the nurse getting ready to tier up after getting the news to not to focus on football and focus on spending time with ur daughter's and making sure all your affairs are good because you don't have alot of time left got emotional 🥺But Gob Bless you that u are doing good now.
