Hello! There's a lot to cover this week. From Kamala Harris relieving Joe Biden of his campaign duties for the 2024 Democratic ticket to Sonya Massey's tragic & unjust passing, and that doesn't even scratch the surface. Céline Dion gave a masterclass in performance as she closed the Paris Olympics and I also discuss Gaga & Beyoncé's contributions to the event. I dig into something that I've recently found words for- a blind spot in my queer experience... more on this. All this on KOBLIZZY 71 xo https://linktr.ee/koblizzy

Hello everybody! My name is Kobe, this is KOBLIZZY. This week’s episode is a little all over the place. From my nutty Washington D.C. trip to crazy current events, constant TSA pat-downs, a blood disorder flare up, “everything shower” controversy… lions, tigers, bears. Oh my, it’s just too much. I do my best to break it all down, after all that is what we do here. In true KOBLIZZY fashion, I share with you all my current music favorites: some Destiny’s Child, lots of Aretha Franklin, and a Blackout caused by Britney Spears. All this & more on episode 70 of KOBLIZZY! xo linktr.ee/koblizzy

Hey y'all! It literally blows my mind to write that exactly two years ago today, I posted the very first episode of KOBLIZZY. The episode is entitled "music" and it's an audio-only pod of me breaking down my favorite playlists at the time, which is very on brand & one of my favorite pastimes. What inspired me to create the KOBLIZZY podcast, however, was attending RuPaul's Drag Race Werq the World tour in 2022. I've seen the show again since then, but this was my first opportunity to see a drag show of that caliber. My mom & I were front row AND I SWORE TO GOD that Jaida Essence Hall was making eyes at me. Like I swear she kept looking at me. Swear. But I digress. This experience inspired this platform, and ever since then I've just been yapping. And yapping. Thank you for watching or listening! I'm endlessly grateful to you all. I also break down my top 12 albums of time!! That's actually what this episode is about lol. All this & more! xo https://linktr.ee/koblizzy

Hey y'all! This week on KOBLIZZY I'm breaking down my top 12 favorite music videos of all time, in no particular order. I was inspired to make this episode at Pride because the gay people I know love to re-watch nostalgic videos we think are iconic. The art of music videos is largely lost nowadays, in my opinion, because MTV & YouTube viewership are declining. People don't really see them nowadays, unless it's a 9:16 clip on TikTok. Back in the day a good video made your song a hit, and these MVs are the best! All this & more! xo https://linktr.ee/koblizzy

NYC Pride 2024 was such a movie! We genuinely had the best time. In this special episode of KOBLIZZY, I recap all of our weekend festivities and the music that underscored the whole thing. The SOTW is Joyride by Kesha. All this & more! xo https://linktr.ee/koblizzy

Hey y’all! This week’s episode of KOBLIZZY is all about Pride! Well, mostly about Pride, and just how important it remains as a fixture in queer culture during these turbulent times. I break down every time I’ve attended Pride since coming out 6 years ago now- including my first Pride in Virginia Beach and multiple NYC Pride moments. Before that, I talk about lots of new music including but not limited to The Boy is Mine Remix by Ariana Grande, Brandy & Monica, Dopamine by Normani, and Brat by Charli xcx. Next week’s episode will be a few days delayed because I’ll be traveling home from NYC. Not the first time KOBLIZZY has been late, but definitely the first time I’ve planned for it. Lol.

Hey everybody! Long time no see. KOBLIZZY is back & so am I, but not without explanation. I decided to take a break after my dog’s passing almost a month ago, but it’s time to get back to it. This week, after memorializing Mugsy, I discuss everything that happened while I was away: Taylor Swift’s new album, Espresso, Anne Hathaway, Celine Dion, Challengers, Law Roach, Conan Gray, and so forth. I also give you a lil life update regarding what I’ve done during my break. All this & much more. Xo https://koblizzy.com

Hi all! This week I break down Chlöe Bailey's new single 'Boy Bye,' which I love! Chlöe & her sister are both incredibly talented & versatile. ATL hoe! I finally talk all things 'Deeper Well' by Kacey Musgraves. I love everything Kacey has ever done and her fifth solo album is no exception. I also have a deeper (well) conversation about colorism & privilege when it comes to racial identity. This is something that's always topical, but especially right now considering the current climate of the Real Housewives of Potomac. The housewives franchise always walks a line regarding what is "okay" or not, but what's happened on season 8 in unprecedented & undeniably shameful. All this & more! xo https://koblizzy.com

Heyyyy y'all! You already know what time it is. This week I'm digging into all things 'Eternal Sunshine' by Ariana Grande. While I am extremely late to this party, I've been afforded plenty of time to get accustomed to this record and... I LOVE IT! Ariana's first concept album includes motifs of questioning your current relationship, ending it, and moving on to another you clearly prefer. I fantasize about it all time. The music feels very Y2K pop & R&B, while the overall theme is based on the 2004 film 'Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind.' This album is well done, catchy, and the music & vocal production work is stunning. I also breakdown my love for one of the most iconic reality TV shows of all time, Dance Moms. I've been rewatching the show for the first time since I first watched it as a kid, and my opinions have definitely shifted with time. I also had the privilege of seeing Tiny Habits live in Atlanta on their first headline tour, and that definitely comes up. The SOTW is 'Tyrant' from Beyoncé's 'COWBOY CARTER.'

This album is NUTS! Ever since its release, I've been listening exclusively to COWBOY CARTER by Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter herself. This artist doesn't just reinvent her sound- she transforms masterfully & always maintains her own sense of self in the art. Beyoncé is second to NOBODY! Argue with your mother. And the legends agree- we know this thanks to cameos from Dolly P & Mr. Willie Nelson, as well as Linda Martell. I cover every inch of this album in this episode, but I'm sure I'll find more to say about in the future. I also discuss new releases from Ariana Grande & Kacey Musgraves, which I plan to break down more in a coming episode. All this & more! xo https://koblizzy.com

Hey y’all! This week on KOBLIZZY, I fawn over Dune: Part Two. It’s just that good. I love movies, but I’m not usually a huge fan of scientific fiction. Dune definitely has crossover ability that supersedes the specifics of its genre. I do find, however, that many series' of the Dune variety (ie; Star Wars, The Hunger Games) have foundational plot points that center colonialism & exploitation. This is another theme I explore in this episode. All this & more! xo koblizzy.com

Hey everybody! In honor of Beyonce’s highly anticipated country record coming March 29, I thought it would be appropriate to dig into the country genre at large. A decent part of my childhood growing up in Georgia was influenced by country music & I developed a fondness for the genre early on. From Taylor Swift to Sugarland, Charlie Pride to Johnny Cash. Yola, The War & Treaty, Lainey Wilson. The list goes on. Song by song, I break down my personal country playlist that includes tracks from every era of my lifetime thus far.

Hey y’all! This week on KOBLIZZY I’m covering Beyoncé’s HISTORY MAKING, RECORD BREAKING #1 Billboard Hot 100 & Country single “Texas Hold ‘Em.” I love Beyoncé & have taken this opportunity to further contextualize her career at large, as well as her impact on the music industry. I also dig into a story about trifling chiropractic practice operators that have no business being so opinionated & nosy. They’re also anti-vaxxers. All this & more! xo https://linktr.ee/koblizzy

Howdy y’all! This week I'm discussing what has the potential to be Beyonce’s most ingenious album announcement ever, complete with a concept that is equally enthralling. Her upcoming COUNTRY album, currently untitled, will drop on March 29. After hinting towards the project at the end of her Super Bowl commercial with Verizon, Beyoncé took to her socials to post an album announcement video. Shortly after, her brand new singles “16 Carriages” & “Texas Hold ‘Em” dropped on all streaming platforms. Masterpieces. I also dig into all things Super Bowl LVIII- the Chief’s overtime victory, Usher & his special guests at the Apple Music halftime show, Reba, Post Malone, Andra Day, and more. I even unbox a “HOMECOMING” vinyl I received as a gift less than 4 hours before Beyonce’s surprise album announcement & single drop!! Like what in the manifest destiny? This episode is stacked!!! Shoutout to my girl Kacey Musgraves- she has a new album coming out April "Deeper Well." All this & more! xo https://linktr.ee/koblizzy

Hey everybody! This week on KOBLIZZY I'm discussing all things Grammys! Including but not limited to: Miley Cyrus winning her first Grammy, SZA winning three in one night, Billie Eilish winning four, Olivia Rodrigo's snub & Taylor Swift breaking the record for AOTY wins. I get into my favorite performances & surprise appearances as well. Also, Happy Black History Month! I open the episode discussing the Black experience in the entertainment industry & clarify my position in a huge conversation laced with nuance & struggle. I hope I can make you proud.

Hey y’all! In Episode #53 of KOBLIZZY, I’m talking about Megan Thee Stallion’s new single 'HISS' & some of the controversy that has followed.

Hey everybody! Another Tuesday, another KOBLIZZY!! This week I’m digging into quite literally the best three-movie-run I’ve ever seen at AMC Theatres: The Iron Claw, American Fiction & the theatrical release of the 2020 Disney film Soul. Reneé Rapp gave what might be the best vocal performance I’ve ever heard on SNL this past Saturday night, with host Jacob Elordi & appearances by Megan Thee Stallion & Rachel McAdams. Like… whaaaat?!
