In Volume 6 of History Was Ghetto, John Cash goes back to September 13, 2009 and follows one stage interruption through everything it set off: Beyoncé stuck in the middle of a fight she didn't start, a reported "jackass" from the President of the United States, an apology tour, the 2016 "Famous" feud, the snake emoji pile-on, and a leaked phone call that turned fans into amateur investigators.
Along the way, John makes the case that this moment was an early look at how modern fandom works: sides, receipts, and public humiliation with an audience. He also imagines how fast the internet would have buried Kanye if it happened today. The episode ends with the show's scorecard.
New episodes every fourth Wednesday.
