CHAPTER TEN: THE MUSEUM OF BLACK PAIN

It’s the LAST EPISODE, been a big first season, so it was only right we ended on a big last episode. 2018 marked the year of drilling into the rappers of today on their use of violence, crime and poverty in their lyrics. News reports, articles and socials all had a say in the “harmful effect” this music was having, but nobody thought to question if this was the media’s plan all along… But to do what you ask? Interlude looks at how the human motivation to exist in groups is limiting the black community from escaping the cage that society has locked them in for centuries. How it encourages the youth of today to speak on false adversities, and how such a beautiful group of people are unable to venture into new avenues of creativity.

CHAPTER 9: DRUGS & RAVES

Drugs are a touchy subject for many, especially when it concerns the youth… The common perception is that the youth are taking drugs for all the wrong reasons, one being just because it’s a part of the rave culture, but what if I told you taking drugs might just be a desperate attempt to get back to our true nature, to fulfil a destiny we are too far removed from in today’s society? Lock in for all things on the collective unconscious, trancing, hypnosis, and egolessness...

CHAPTER EIGHT: WHY I SUPPORT MY ABUSER

Interlude presents the great chapter eight here for you this Wednesday! Investment is a tricky subject when it involves problematic artists. This week looks at how your unconscious investment in artists can actually push their success even though you consciously don’t agree with their actions. However, if this is the case then why do some controversial artists have more success than others, surely something psychological is going on… This week I wanted the opinion of the audience and the lovely @declanm003 got in the hot seat, lock in to here all things on romantic relationships, investment, and the differential push of controversial artists due to race, likeness and even severity of the abuse.
