RoundUp
We dropped an article about 10 CHH songs from 2019 that could use choreography along with an Op-Ed on Reach Records hitting their best with diversity and creativity.
John Reuben
We debuted a new podcast called “Say What?!?!” A few weeks ago we asked what were some “Say What” moments in CHH on our socials. Most of you mistook this for crazy bars or metaphors. What we really meant is things that make you scratch your head like, “Huh,” what does that mean.” These are things that need more context. The first episode interviews John Reuben who has a line that says, “Little Richard thinks I look like Bob Dylan.” I heard that years ago and always wondered about the back story, so I asked him. Check it out now and let us know of some more of these “Say What” moments in the comments.
