#80: Friday: The Greatest Hood Movie of All Time?

Episode 80

Friday, April 25, 2025 • Duration 47:21

Back at it with episode 80, Nick holds the fort down this episode. We kick things off with a celebration of one of the greatest hood movies of all time: Friday. The movie turns 30 in 2025, and Nick asks if it is the greatest hood movie of all time, over Boyz in the Hood, Menace 2 Society, and more. His answer may surprise you based on quotables, longevity, cast, and messaging in the movie. After that, social media is flooded with pictures left and right of Mt. Rushmore on certain subjects from Air Jordans, comedians, basketball players, etc. One that has struck with Nick for this episode to discuss is a picture of white rappers on Mount Rushmore. Nick gives his thoughts on the picture and gives his opinion of his version. Later, rapper Dody6 featured on Kendrick Lamar's "Hey Now" is now blaming him for being homeless after Dody claims that the song didn't do anything to help him financial wise. Nick asks questions about the entire situation and gives advice for Dody about what to do next. All that plus, shout outs, album recommendations and more!

#72: How the West (Coast Rap Scene) Was Lost (The Solo Episode)

Episode 72

Wednesday, March 6, 2024 • Duration 54:17

After a long break the show is BACK for 2024 and back with another new episode of the show! Only Nick holds things down for this time around as he kicks things off by touching on why fans were underwhelmed by Jeezy's Tiny Desk performance. Fans called out the show by saying the audience in attendance was bad for the show, the setlist that he had and the location of the show. Nick gives his thoughts on everything and if he liked or hated the show. Next up, Cardi B came back with a new track "Like What (Freestyle)" which had a lot of people talking including Joe Budden who says the pretty girl wave rap is over. Nick gives his thoughts on if it is over and how Cardi's new single sounds. After that, ScHoolboy Q's highly anticipated new Blue Lips recently dropped to give west coast rap a shot in the arm to stay relevant while the South and NY rap is all over the place. Nick reviews the album and ask if Q's Blue Lips can revive the west coast back to what it once was a decade ago. All that plus shoutouts, an album recommendation and a lot more!!

#71: 2023: Nothing to Rap About

Episode 71

Wednesday, December 13, 2023 • Duration 02:14:55

Been gone for a minute but we are BACK with another new episode of LEM! Nick and Jared are back at the helm and we kick things off with the breaking news of the split between Cardi B and Offset. Cardi recently told fans on Instagram Live that she is now single, only to fuel the fires (again) of Offset cheating on her, especially with rumors going around the he slept with Chrisean Rock at a party that all three attended. We give our thoughts on the entire situation and find out what both parties should do post breakup. After that, Andre 3000 FINALLY dropped a solo album, only to disappoint fans by saying that it wasn't going to be a rap album since he had nothing to rap about at the age of 48. Lil Wayne chimed in on Andre's comments by saying that it was "depressing". We give our thoughts on 3000's new album and ask if Wayne was right to call it depressing that Andre had nothing to rap about. Next, with Busta Rhymes dropping a new album Blockbusta, he stopped on KickGame's UK show Shopping for Sneakers. When host, Craig Mitch, ask Busta on who can beat him in a Verzuz battle, Busta confidently said: "nobody!". We put his theory to the test and ask if someone can go round for round with Busta or wonder if he's right. After that, from Drake's midlife crisis and rappers showing no originality to celebrating 50 years of hip hop, we take a look back at the best and worst of the genre in 2023. All that plus, podcasts on Mt. Rushmore, shoutouts, laughs, album recommendations and more!!

#70: Divorced Girl Fall

Episode 70

Wednesday, September 27, 2023 • Duration 02:01:09

On our 2023 NFL Week 3 Miami Dolphins massacre over the Denver Broncos episode, Nick and Jared hold things down and kick things off over the huge news that Usher will be headlining the Super Bowl LVIII Halftime Show in Las Vegas. The marauders touch on if Usher's halftime show will be better than Rihanna's and what we should expect when he hits the stage in 2024. Next up, Chris Brown and R&B singer Tinashe go blow for blow with words after the songstress recently said in an interview that regretted doing songs with both Brown and R. Kelly. Chris caught wind and decided to clap back with a scathing response to her. We not only ask if she should regret doing the song with Chris but if or how she can avoid more situations like this in the future. After that, what do Teyana Taylor, Jeezy, Remy and Papoose all have in common this fall? All of the aforementioned are heading for separation/divorce within these few weeks. We ask whose split was the most shocking, who can still save their relationship/marriage or who should stay split up. All that plus, laughs, album recommendations, our newest game on Southern rappers and more!!

#69: Aging Against the Machine

Episode 69

Wednesday, August 30, 2023 • Duration 02:10:42

Been gone for a minute but we are finally back with another new and funny episode of the podcast. We kick things off with LL Cool J's comments on rappers retiring on Sway In The Morning. Before kicking a freestyle on the show, he talks about how rap isn't a sport and calls out those who flirt with want to retire as a way of being bored with their careers. The marauders give their take on LL's words on retirement and why we shouldn't fall for it. After that, we talk about ageism in hip hop today after rapper Asian Doll wrote in a now deleted post on Twitter/X that people who are trying to make it in rap at/over the age of 30 is crazy. With the word going around thanks to DJ Akademics, other rappers sounded off on the post through social media as well. Nick and Jared give their thoughts on Asian Doll's post and also comment on Gillie Da Kid's comment on stop rapping past the age of 35 months ago on his podcast. Plus they ask if there should be an age limit on people trying to rap and make it in the rap game. Later, after celebrating 50 years of rap/hip hop on August 11th, many publications from Rolling Stone to Complex have made lists on the best rappers/groups/songs of all time by celebrating. Rappers have also voiced their opinions on some lists and some have even ask people on why certain rappers haven't made these lists and ask why they were overlooked. California rapper Mistah F.A.B. asked while watching the Hip Hop 50 concert from Yankee Stadium why MC Hammer wasn't a part of the show due to his contributions in the early 90s. Producer Pete Rock, asked why his late cousin Heavy D didn't get his name onto any lists after what Pete Rock said Heavy D did for the genre. We ask who should have been recognized more out of the two legends on these lists. All that a brand new game with hip hop videos, laughs, album recommendations, shout outs and more!!

#68: Adult Essence Fest Expo

Episode 68

Wednesday, July 19, 2023 • Duration 02:06:22

We are BACK with a brand new episode and a brand new season of the Low End Marauders podcast! Jared and Nick are back once again with new topics to talk, debate and discuss. We kick things off with Drake on tour with 21 Savage and with the first stop in Chicago (July 5), Drake calls out Childish Gambino for his 2018 hit "This is America" by calling it overrated and over awarded while performing "Headlines". The boys talk about the moment and wonder about the motive of the move 5 years later and ask who we are taking if a beef were to happen. Next, Megan Thee Stallion and R&B songstress Janelle Monae have fun at this year's Essence Festival by wilding out during their respective sets. With Megan during her usual performance schtick and Monae pulling out and exposing her breast albeit with a pasty on it, soul singer India.Arie voiced her disappointment with both women's sets. We ask if she was right to say that about what happened and if there should be age restrictions on festivals. After that, producer and cowriter for 2Pac's "Keep Ya Head Up", DJ Daryl says that he has 2Pac vocals still in his vault and wants to release it through new music and possibly a new album. The marauders aren't feeling this news due to them saying that it feels the producer is trying to do this as a way of clout and attention. But they ask the question if new 2Pac in 2023 will work today and if anyone should collaborate on said album. All that plus, shoutouts, solo Wu-Tang albums Rank'd, album recommendations and more!!

#67: Plastic Surgical Summer

Episode 67

Wednesday, June 21, 2023 • Duration 02:18:37

It's the end of season three and Nick and Jared are here to take us out in style. We sadly kick things off from where we left last time with the unfortunate passing of Wild N Out/85 South Show cast member DC Young Fly's girlfriend Jacky Oh. Oh passed away (May 31) due to a surgical procedure called a "mommy makeover". The marauders talk and give their condolences to her and discuss if the toxic culture of plastic surgery for women in rap will be a continuous trend due to her passing or if the trend will sadly continue. Next up, frequent OutKast collaborator Sleepy Brown was caught up at LAX (June 13) and told TMZ that the group is over and to not expect any new music from the duo soon. We debate on if it is the end of the legendary Atlanta group and ask if Aquemini or ATLiens is the best album from OutKast since Brown said the former was their best work due to both men flexing their production skills on Aquemini. After that, it's been a dry spell for rap in the first half of 2023. Why? No rap album or single has hit number one on the Billboard Charts so far (as of this episode) and hasn't had this happen since 1993. We ask each other what's going on to have this happen and give our picks on who will be the first to have a number one album and single on the charts. All that, plus more 90s albums Rank'd, album recommendations, shout outs and more!!

#66: Missy Elliott: G.O.A.T. Status?? (The Artificial Imitation Episode)

Episode 66

Wednesday, June 7, 2023 • Duration 02:31:19

It's been a long time.... But we are back yet again with another new episode of the show! Nick and Jared are back again to kick things off with Ice Cube voicing his opinions on AI generated music that has been going around on social media for a while. Cube calls it demonic and says that he will sue anyone if a creator tries to use his voice on an AI generated song without his permission. We ask if Ice Cube is overreacting on the entire situation and if rappers and musicians should follow suit on suing people. Next up, Beef erupts between Rick Ross and The Breakfast Club's DJ Envy over car shows and appearances to the point where women, rappers and everyone in between gets caught in the crossfire. With both men taking jabs at each other and casualties getting involved, we ask if the "beef" between them went way too far and if this was one of the most pointless feuds in hip hop history. After that, Missy Elliott becomes the first solo female act to be inducted into this year's Rock & Roll Hall of Fame (will be inducted in Brooklyn in November). With her being inducted along with DJ Kool Herc, this year we look back on her illustrious career and ask the question on if she is the greatest female rapper of all time. All that, plus Rank'd third albums, shout outs, album recommendations and more!!!

#65: OVO Jim

Episode 65

Wednesday, April 19, 2023 • Duration 02:11:05

Back again after being gone for a while! Nick and Jared are here to give you more hip hop news and questions since our last episode! We kick things off by discussing Complex's first annual Hip Hop Media Power Ranking List that made its rounds on April 3rd. Coming in at #1 was Joe Budden due to his success with his highly popular Joe Budden Podcast. We ask if the good folks at Complex got the list right and who should be higher or lower on the list. After that, 6ix9ine made headlines for all the wrong reasons when he got jumped in a Florida LA Fitness gym bathroom by three men (March 22). A few days later, he would have an interview with NBC 6 South Florida (April 6) to deny that the beatdown was staged due to people on social media having their suspicions. We ask if the beatdown that he suffered was real or staged and if there's a lesson to be learned from 6ix9ine's situation. Next up, social media came alive when people started to dream a potential Verzuz matchup with 50 Cent and Lil Wayne. Hot 97 DJ, Ebro said that he's taking 50 for the winner of the battle if it were to happen. On paper, the marauders chose Lil Wayne as the winner but we ask if 50 were to accept, what can he do in order to win against the Young Money rapper. Later, Jim Jones sounds off on Pusha T on the Rap Caviar Podcast by saying that King Push isn't a top 50 of all time due to his music "isn't being played outside and no one wants to dress like him", etc. Plus, Jim doubles down on Drake being the greatest rapper of all time during the same interview due to the records that he has broken and his cultural influence. The marauders ask where Push should be ranked on an all time rapper list and if he is in fact a top 50 rapper. All that, plus ranking the best first and second album combos, shout outs, laughs and album recommendations and more!!
