About this episode

Armond & Doc continue on this week by going in-depth on two much-talked about (and extremely different) projects - The Weeknd's 'Starboy' and Childish Gambino's 'Awaken, My Love!'. How is The Weeknd handling his incredible rise? Can Childish pull off the extremely ambitious musical goals he has with this project? Are either of these albums going to make an end of the year top 10 list? All that plus one of the fastest reviews in CRS history (sorry John Legend), Wale, and a lot more.
