EP 20 | The Chixx Mix Playlist (Vol. 1)

While music is often viewed as a source of therapy, not much gets said about the overwhelming pressure that gets put on musicians by being in the industry. Sure the music they create helps us through difficult times as fans, but what about their well-being? Who is responsible for checking in with them? So in honor of #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth we caught up with Brooklyn Magazine's '30 Under 30' alum Naiylah Warren, a Marriage and Family Therapist who focuses on drug and substance abuse counseling. We discussed the importance of seeking therapy and the impact social media has on musicians' mental health.

If you loved this episode be sure to let us know what you thought via our socials or email us at viewsfromthechixx@gmail.com. Your comment may be featured on the next episode!

WHAT WE DISCUSSED:
How Naiylah's personality led her to the field of psychology
Musicians utilizing their platforms to openly discuss mental health
The downward spiral of Kanye West and his battle with addiction
The importance of a support system when seeking therapy
How social media can impact musicians' mental health
Why the term "relationship goals" is hella problematic
Therapy for Black Girls' Directory

EP 32 | Mental Health vs The Musician w/ Naiylah Warren

On this week’s episode, we discuss Nicki Minaj’s new album QUEEN. Unlike previous episodes we decided to spice things up a bit. We prerecorded our projections before them album was released. Just our opinions based on her single releases thus far.  You know the songs Chung Li and Barbie Tingz. Sounds familiar?? Then we recorded our final thoughts two weeks after the album was released. Since Nicki has been all over the headlines lately we tackled everything! The Chixx disused the controversial Forbes magazine article where writer Bryan Rolli, criticize the album rollout. If you didn’t read the article, he basically read her for filth in the most intellectual way possible. (Yikes!!) 

Let’s just say the Barb’s or even Nicki herself may find their way to our DM… Don’t worry we stay ready… (hahaha) But seriously, do you think this album was flop or bop?? Tune in and share your thoughts.

EP 38 | The Chixx Mixx: What We're Listening To

Hey music lovers! On this week’s episode, we interviewed Philly based hip hop artist E-Hos. As a true creative at heart, he juggles many hats such as acting, producing and even playing the viola. However his love for music surpasses them all. He began writing at the fruitful age of 10 and over the years focused on perfecting his craft. 

While in college E-Hos began recording music in his friend’s dorm room studio and later released his first feature via YouTube. Like wildfire the track quickly went viral which caught the attention of local radio stations. In the words of E-Hos, “Good music travels fast”.

During our conversation, we discussed his latest album Underestimated II. E-Hos describes this album as a personal journey of self-discovery. His clever storytelling skills will leave listeners hanging on to every word. On December 21st, the first day of winter solstice, E-Hos will be releasing his new album Subzero Season and from the looks of it, it’s definitely going to be a cold winter!

E-Hos - Words To Her

On this week’s episode the ladies take an in depth look at Blackground Records, the now defunct record label that was founded by Aaliyah’s uncle Barry Hankerson and launched the careers of artists such as Aaliyah, Timberland, Tank and JoJo. Despite their talented roster, the company went in a downward spiral after Aaliyah’s passing and a slew of lawsuits followed. The most famous lawsuit was with JoJo, which took her almost a decade to resolve before she could release music again.

We discuss the importance of artists owning their masters and how Barry Hankerson’s refusal to put Aaliyah’s music on any major streaming services may affect her legacy. Plus we debate the pros and cons of streaming music vs record sales.

Hello music lovers, this week’s episode is inspired by the upcoming Millennium tour featuring B2K. We sat down with guest co-hosts Lisa and Corey who brought on plenty of laughs. As many of you know, the Chixx love R&B music and once we heard that one of our favorite groups from back in the day was going on the tour, we lost it! This moment is exactly what our souls have been missing!

We discuss the upcoming tour and the current drama between the members. We reminisce about our favorite male R&B groups that paved the way for groups like B2K to shine. And of course we re-ask the question "Who is the King of R&B"?? A lot more people are now coming out of the woodwork to claim the throne!  We love the current spicy conversation! Lastly, we featured music from our favorite (and honorable mention) R&B groups from the late 90’s to early 00’s. Take a listen to find out who made the cut!

EP 52 | Male R&B Groups Of The 90s & 2000s

On this week’s episode we discuss the recent Hulu and Netflix documentaries examining the scandalous music festival, Fyre Festival. Fyre Fest was supposed to be a luxurious festival on the Bahamian islands providing the perfect backdrop for the ultimate social media experience. The exclusive two-weekend event promised a lavish carribean getaway by advertising private jets, luxury yachts, gourmet meals, and high-profile celebrities. However, the attendees were in for the shock of their life as what they experienced was far from luxury.  Let’s just say a lot of crying selfies were taken which resulted in one of the worst social media disasters of all time.

After watching both films, we still had so many questions that needed answers. To get the inside scoop we interviewed Felix Vargas, one of the event producers of Fyre Fest who was actually featured on the Hulu documentary Fyre Fraud. Felix, who is also the co-founder of Curated Vibes Group, walked us through his personal involvement in the festival and what really went down behind the scenes. We discussed the false perception that was presented to the public as well as the possible intentions of the organizers.

So tune in to find out what parts of the story didn't make it to the cutting room floor!

Hello music lovers!!! On this week's episode, we discuss the recent national and global protests demanding racial justice due to the violent killings of #GeorgeFloyd #AhmaudArbery and #BreonnaTaylor by police. The ladies also discussed the "impact" of the #BlackoutTuesday initiative created by the music industry to protest these incidents. Some streaming services created blacked out, silent, or minimal programming lasting 8 minutes and 46 seconds, the length of time it took for George Floyd's life to be taken. However some of us were not 100% impressed with their efforts and we challenged the music industry to do more!

In addition, we provide listeners with resources they can use to help fight against police brutality if protesting on the front lines is not your lane. There is something we can all do to help fight for justice!  Take a listen for more information!
