🎁 The Gift That Keeps On Giving

In this holiday-fueled episode of The M.A.K Podcast, Asaad The Artiz kicks things off airing out his latest dating frustrations straight from the wilds of Humboldt County—and somehow that spirals into a very real conversation about parenting boundaries. The big question on the table:

👉 Should single parents wait at least a year before introducing a new partner to their kids?

From there, Asaad and Kemistree tap into the holiday spirit, breaking down what Christmas actually means to them—beyond gifts, lights, and awkward family interactions.

The convo takes a sharp (and hilarious) turn with the Sheronne Moore scandal, leading to an uncomfortable but necessary question:

👉 Why do prominent Black men keep fumbling life-changing opportunities over the most mid white women?

Yeah… they went there.

Next up, the duo tackles code-switching, unpacking why it exists, how it affects the Black community, and why it might be time to finally let that habit go.

And of course, it wouldn’t be a M.A.K episode without rapid-fire Sports Takes, random side quests, and a whole lot of unfiltered honesty.

We want to thank everyone for rocking with us all year—your support does not go unnoticed. Wishing you and yours a happy holiday season, peace, laughs, and good vibes moving into the new year.

Back when podcasts didn’t have “brands”… just opinions, bad audio, and a dream. We pull up a How R.U.D.E. Podcast vault classic from 2021 featuring DJ Pressure, local emcee Hiway, and Kemistree — real traffic, no GPS. This episode is straight raw convo as we weave through politics in music, cultural exchanges, breaking musical barriers, and the everyday chaos of trying to make art without losing your mind (or your integrity). This one’s gritty, unpolished, and allergic to PR statements. The type of episode that would get “shadowbanned” today for being too honest and laughing at the wrong moments. Also, a loud salute to Nada Clue, former local producer — a certified brick in the foundation before the city started acting brand new. If you miss when podcasts sounded like studio debates, late-night sessions, and opinions said with chest… Highway Traffic is your lane. 🎙️ For entertainment purposes only (relax).

Every choice comes with consequences—and this episode doesn’t dodge any of them.

Asaad the Artiz & Kemistree tap in for a wide-ranging conversation that moves between faith, culture, family dynamics, music, and unapologetic hot takes. From questioning belief systems to debating rap royalty, Choices & Decisions is all about the moments that shape who we become—whether we’re ready for them or not.

In this episode, we break down:

• The fallout of doing Christian hip-hop and being labeled a “Jesus Freak”
• Is there actual truth in religion—or just interpretation?
• A recap of Dr. Cheyenne Bryant’s Club Shay Shay interview, sparking discussions on broken homes, single parent households, workaholic parents, and emotional absence
• A controversial question: do people who get scammed deserve it?
• Having “the talk” after your child has already lost their virginity—too late or still necessary?
• Is The Game really the King of West Coast rap?
• Why Cassidy’s rap style feels frozen in 2005
• The Top 10 most famous people in the world—globally, not locally
• M.A.K’s signature sports takes
• And much, much more

This episode is unfiltered, opinionated, and honest—exactly how real conversations happen when the mics are on and the comfort is gone.
