One more episode until the 2BELTZ finale, and the boys are joined the the long lost third member for his last appearance on the podcast. Meelz, Carlos, and Jimmy discuss (and run off on several tangents) the R. Kelly memes and what can we establish and fact and fiction when it comes to high-profile accusations, YNW Melly's situation, Drake vs. Kanye West when it comes to influence, and the review of Solange, DaBaby, and 2 Chainz new project. The final half an hour of the show has the group creating a playlist for the show, which you can listen to on Apple Music and Spotify.

Two major releases in the form of Offset & Gunna, but we have so much more to tackle within the realm of hip hop in 2019 thus far. After a break of over 100 episodes, Eric G (@theericglife)of illroots joins Meelz & Carlos back on 2BELTZ to discuss a few things in the landscape of rap including our most anticipated/wishlist of releases of the year (6:30), a slew of new acts which could break out in 2019 (21:09), and the albums that have released. This week's releases we talk about Cardi B's new single with Bruno Mars (46:41), Kehlani's beautiful project 'While We Wait' (48:03), the drip heavy project from Gunna (59:09), and our surprising mixed reaction to Offset's FATHER OF 4 album (1:13:19).

From the infamous Episode 6 to Episode 168, how far have we come. Before Valentine's Day, the boys of 2BELTZ Podcast are joined by their lovely other halves, Adrienne & Samantha to run through the last two weeks in pop culture, if that's what it's still called.

Three more episodes to follow!

As we tick down closer to March 15th, the episodes just keep turning up. JIMMY joins the boys once again on Episode 167 to talk Soulja Boy, Teanna Trump's video drop, the conversation around Ariana Grande's "7 Rings", J. Cole's "Middle Child", Dragon Ball Super: Broly movie, and of course the main event, Future's new album The WIZRD.

**Editor's Note: There are audio issues within the last 10 minutes of the podcast. Tried clean it up as much as possible. We apologize. We've reached the final frontier of 2BELTZ. On Episode 166 we talk about our decision to put a bow on the podcast and when exactly will we be wrapping things up (it's early in the episode). We also talk about Surviving R. Kelly, new music from Chris Brown, Bhad Bhabie, Kehlani, + more, and how Future will go down in history when it's all said and done after viewing his documentary The WIZRD.

This year was a lot. A lot of content. A lot of music. A lot of things to talk about. RCA Records A&R Derrick Aroh (@DoubleDuzIt)joins us once again for our year-end episode to discuss all the happenings in 2018. Derrick recounts his 2018 which included the signing of BROCKHAMPTON — which subsequently led to a #1 album, and the signing of Donald Glover — which subsequently led to a #1 single with "This Is America". We also talk the albums released this year from both veterans and newcomers, the state of hip hop and R&B at the moment and who will be the new guard, and so much more. This is a must-listen episode of 2BELTZ if there ever was one.

The music has officially stopped for 2018, but that doesn't mean the conversation has. Episode 164 is the first episode this season without Meelz & Carlos reviewing new music, but the industry has provided enough moments for discussions to be had. The two discuss the debate of who is the true king of R&B, Janet Jackson being inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, Cardi B & Offset breaking up, The GRAMMY nominations are out, who's right & wrong in this Kodak Black/Ebro In The Morning discussion, and of course the next chapter of the long battle between Kanye West & Drake.
