Soon after, the pair discuss the importance of album campaigns as a part of a segway, noting the success of Kano and Ghetts' roll-outs.

The news of the week shortly follows, with Eden spotlighting Brent Faiyaz and his abilities to gain money as an artist through streaming and strategic touring. Nic then tackles Lana Del Ray's reactions to a mixed review via NPR.
