The podcasting industry has reached new heights of insanity in recent years. This is especially true in regard to podcasts that feature music as well as sports broadcasts. Every week, there is a competition between creators to see who can snag the best guests and who can release the best content with those guests.
This competition can be seen in songs such as “Million Dollaz Worth of Game” by Gillie Da Kid and Wallo, “All the Smoke” by Stephen Jackson and Matt Barnes, and “Caresha Please” by Yung Miami.
There are still guests that we would never expect to see hop on one of these podcasts, even in the midst of all these podcasts taking off and providing us with some of the best interviews we’ve heard in recent memory. This is an excellent representation of how the majority of people felt when they learned that the iconic Patti LaBelle will be a guest on N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN’s show titled “Drink Champs.”
The Grandmother of Soul only infrequently participates in interviews; therefore, it was a special delight to hear her on podcasts, from which guests typically depart acting belligerently intoxicated. She did not partake in the consumption of any hard liquor, but she did partake in the consumption of wine, and she encouraged the hosts to continue smoking their “reefer” if that was what made them feel most at ease.
Despite the fact that the interview hasn’t even been available for a full week yet, it has already garnered over 631,000 views and counting. The interview was just priceless. During the course of the chat which lasted for two hours, Ms. LaBelle shared a great deal of valuable information.
