This week I’m joined by my guys JJohnson313, Dame___313, JUNE & Barry of The Uprising Network. We gave out some well deserved flowers to some culture favs who may never see the verzuz platform solely because they lack in “quantity” but as you will hear in our conversation they definitely aren’t lacking in the QUALITY!! This will be the last show to close out 2021, but I will see you all in 2022🥳❤️ Happy Holidays xoxo Chey

On this episode I was joined by my guys @jjohnson313 @damegonewild @roqcity & @museumofjune to discuss the ladies. Take a minute a think of some of your fav rap songs that feature a WOMAN on it. Whether she held it down with bars or blessed it with some beautiful vocals either way she did what needed to be done to create a classic!! Take a listen and see if some of your favorites were brought into conversation or send me a tweet @motorcityoprah and tell me one you think we may have missed.
