EIC Ben Henschel and Broadcast Editor Alex Dinyer take on one album a week — then review it on a podcast, giving overall thoughts and a track-by-track breakdown.
Episode 2 covers EMMANUEL — Ameer Vann’s controversial new EP. Vann was kicked out of the LA rapping, singing, songwriting, producing and designing collective BROCKHAMPTON last spring due to abuse allegations and ordering a robbery on band member Dom McLennon’s friend, and hasn’t come out with music or much of a public outing since.
This is his first — and likely not his last in the near future. It comes just weeks after BROCKHAMPTON’s release, GINGER. Click here to listen to Episode 1, which reviews GINGER.
Vann grapples with regret, suicidal thoughts, a troubled past and replacing vacuums with drugs and substances. It’s a chilling, devastating picture of Vann’s fallout with the group — but it also paves a path for his solo career in the future.
BEN (revised score): 7.5/10
ALEX: 6.2/10

The honey bee created an upset by not only beating the elephant in the first round but also defeating the Flame Bowerbird in the second round of the animal tournament. Wilkerson ended up winning the tournament in her IB Biology class with 82 points out of the possible perfect bracket 128.
“I did get into it and I looked up every single animal, and the how the weird battlefields worked or whatever the habitat was,” Wilkerson said. “Most of it was just applying some logic but [the March Mammal Madness tournament] was a fun and easy way to get some extra credit.”
