This week broke the culture wide open.
In 30 minutes, John Cash covers FOUR stories that had the internet on fire — from the death of music mogul Clive Davis and the unresolved pain the Black community has carried about Whitney Houston for over a decade, to Cardi B confirming her split from Stefon Diggs and vowing to go completely private, to the devastating loss of Grammy-nominated producer Tay Keith at just 29 years old, and the New York Knicks winning their FIRST NBA Championship in 53 years — and the woman who lost her JPMorgan Chase executive director job over a GARBAGE CAN during the parade.
