The Black Gay Agenda

The Wildcard Agenda Pt. 3 | SZN 4 Episode 10

This week, Micah B, AP, and Dupree close out the midseason with another Wildcard episode, where every topic is on the table and the conversation can go literally anywhere. The episode opens with conversations around internet outrage, fan loyalty, and whether audiences actually allow artists to grow. From Chris Brown and Tyler Perry to Teyana Taylor and award season discourse, the crew gets into why certain celebrities receive endless criticism while others are protected no matter what. From there, the conversation gets even messier. The crew debates petty behavior versus justified reactions, dating age gaps, sugar daddy stories, financial struggles as creatives, and the emotional reality of trying to grow while still carrying other people with you. They also get into the pressure Black creatives face online, why Black audiences sometimes struggle to give grace to Black artists, and the difference between accountability and performative hate. Funny, shady, reflective, chaotic, and unexpectedly deep, this is The Black Gay Agenda exactly the way the Pushers love it. ⸻ Executive Producer Micah Butler Producer Justin B.

The Talk Agenda | SZN 4 Episode 9

This week, Micah B, AP, and Dupree get into the conversations many Black queer people wish they had growing up. The episode opens with a Twitter Talk centered around the viral Vinny Watson and V12 Lounge controversy, and the internet debate around leadership, humiliation, respectability, and why Black queer people often receive harsher criticism online. From there, the conversation turns deeper. The crew unpacks the talks they never had around sex, religion, masculinity, fear, coming out, financial struggles, and what it looks like trying to figure yourself out while also undoing everything you were taught. They also get real about rejection, chasing dreams, emotional survival, and creating the kinds of safe spaces they wish existed when they were younger. Funny, vulnerable, messy, and honest, this is one of the realest conversations of the season. ⸻ Follow The Black Gay Agenda https://instagram.com/theblackgayagenda Follow the Hosts Micah https://instagram.com/itsmicahb AP https://www.instagram.com/whereisalexpin Dupree https://www.instagram.com/dupreetheartist

The Be Honest Agenda | SZN 4 Episode 8

This week, it’s Micah B, AP, and Dupree getting real… like actually real. We kick things off with The Quickie and set the tone early, because this episode is all about honesty, even when it’s uncomfortable. From there, the conversation opens up with a series of “be honest” questions that push everything to the surface. From dating habits to communication issues, the crew gets into the ways we show up in relationships… and the ways we avoid saying what really needs to be said. We get into: • Staying in situations out of comfort vs actually liking someone • Avoiding honesty to protect people’s feelings • Treating people like options while acting like they’re more • Knowing when you’re being inconsistent or emotionally unavailable • And recognizing when you are the problem The conversation also shifts into friendships, accountability, and the things we peep but don’t always say out loud. From riding the fence to calling out patterns, the question becomes… are you really being honest with the people in your life? Then things turn a little messier. We get into sex, attraction, and the double standards we all participate in… from overlooking red flags because someone looks good to doubling back when the sex is just that good. In the final stretch, the crew reflects on themselves. From communication habits to family relationships, finances, and personal growth, this episode forces one question… what are you avoiding being honest about in your own life? This one is funny, messy, and a little too real. ⸻ Follow The Black Gay Agenda https://instagram.com/theblackgayagenda Follow the Hosts Micah https://instagram.com/itsmicahb AP https://www.instagram.com/whereisalexpin Dupree https://www.instagram.com/dupreetheartist

The Female Hip-Hop Agenda | SZN 4 Episode 7

Let’s be real… every time y’all talk about the greatest female rapper, the conversation gets real selective. This week, Micah B is out, but Alex, AP, Dupree, and returning former cohost Justin B. Smith step in and hold it down. We kick things off with The Quickie asking one question… who is the greatest female rapper of all time? And from the start, the answers get real. From debates around Nicki Minaj vs. Missy Elliott to conversations about impact, versatility, and who really transcends the genre, the tone is set early. From there, the episode turns into a full breakdown of female hip hop, past, present, and what’s next. We get into: • The Mount Rushmore of female rap and who actually deserves a spot • The influence of legends like Lil’ Kim, MC Lyte, and Da Brat • How artists like Sexyy Red and GloRilla are shaping the current sound • The difference between personality, hits, and real artistry • Whether a short run is enough to be considered one of the greats The conversation also explores how the sound of female rap has evolved, who has truly challenged the genre, and what it takes to have longevity in an industry that has not always made space for women, especially Black women. In the Agenda Moving Forward, the focus shifts to the future. From rising artists like Monaleo to the growing visibility of new voices across cities, the question becomes clear… who is really next to take the torch? This episode is fun, opinionated, and a real conversation about the culture, the impact, and the evolution of the rap girls. ⸻ Follow The Black Gay Agenda https://instagram.com/theblackgayagenda Follow the Hosts Micah https://instagram.com/itsmicahb Alex https://instagram.com/xandert82 AP https://www.instagram.com/whereisalexpin Dupree https://www.instagram.com/dupreetheartist Justin B.

The Silent Struggles Agenda | SZN 4 Episode 6

This week, Micah B, Alex, AP, and Dupree get into a conversation that goes deeper than expected. We kick things off with a Quickie segment, Queerchella, where the hosts build their own dream queer music festival, choosing headliners and debating who really deserves top billing. What starts as a fun moment quickly turns into a bigger conversation about taste, impact, and who actually moves the culture. From there, the energy shifts into something heavier, the reality of silent struggles. From burnout and isolation to masking pain, self medicating, and navigating mental health in a world that does not always make space for it, the crew gets real about what it looks like to be okay on the outside but not on the inside. They unpack the difference between protecting your peace and isolating yourself, the pressure to stay strong for everyone else, and why so many people struggle to ask for help, especially in Black and queer communities. The conversation also touches on Mental health and masking Friendship, family, and safe spaces The impact of capitalism on emotional well being Grief, addiction, and personal healing Why vulnerability still feels unsafe for so many of us The hosts also share personal stories they have never fully opened up about, from depression and financial struggles to loss and rebuilding. This is not just a conversation, it is a reminder you are not the only one going through it. ⸻ Follow The Black Gay Agenda https://instagram.com/theblackgayagenda Follow the Hosts Micah https://instagram.com/itsmicahb Alex https://instagram.com/xandert82 AP https://www.instagram.com/whereisalexpin Dupree https://www.instagram.com/dupreetheartist
