Jacquees joins the Radar Report on being the King of R&B, the R. Kelly studio session, and how Lick Back got made. Plus Rick Ross vs 50 Cent, Claressa Shields and Papoose, and Gucci Mane's power move on Pooh Shiesty's album.
Ray Daniels opens on Rick Ross and 50 Cent trolling each other again, and makes a bigger point: you can't flex on the same people you need to support you. Luxury rap in this economy is a hard sell, and Ray explains why Jay-Z was the only one who ever made it feel like a favor.
The crew also gets into Claressa Shields, Papoose and Remy Ma, why the internet turned, and why defending yourself always makes it worse. Then Boosie says podcasters are helping the police, and Ray explains the new reality: there are no more streets, only the internet.
Jacquees sits down and gets all the way real - the radio moment that made him call himself the King of R&B, R. Kelly flying him to Chicago and telling him he's an alien, why male R&B is struggling, the Juvenile record that became Lick Back, his R&B Mount Rushmore, the game Birdman and Slim gave him, and why he signed Tyler to FYB.
