The 85 South Show Invites Jack Harlow

Jack Harlow is constantly boosting up his public image. He does the interviews that the fans want to see. Jack has doubled his interview appearances following the release of his second album. He also stopped by the 85 South Show for a hilarious conversation two days ago.

85 South Show

The 85 South Show, a.k.a. The Trap, is a podcast hosted by Karlous Miller, DC Young Fly, Chico Bean, and Clayton English. Jack Harlow felt relaxed and comfortable in The Trap. The episode starts with Harlow and DC Young Fly talking about each other’s shirt sizes being too small.

The conversation then was focused on the Kentucky Derby. Jack Harlow also spoke about how he lost money at the derby betting on horses with Drake, and DC admits that Drake owes him money. The laid-back atmosphere of the 85 South Show allows the conversations to lead themselves.

Harlow’s Freestyle

The show officially gets started with a Jack Harlow introduction by Karlous Miller and rap cipher. Most of the time, guests sit back and enjoy the rapping by the host, but Jack jumps in with his own bars.

“What? You want to hear some rhymes? They trying to say I’m with the slimes. Boy, I’m not with the slimes. I’m on my own motherf**king time. So let’s just do this interview, and imma sit back and play it cool. So let’s catch a vibe DC fly, and they gone see why I’m that guy.”- Jack Harlow (85 South Show)

Jack Harlow had spitted his bars, and then The Trap went crazy. Everyone within earshot also loved every word Jack said.

Jack Gets Comfortable At The 85 South Show

We also learn about Jack’s obsession with Fergie and how she might be on the “First Class” remix throughout the interview. Also, it turns out that Jack Harlow would like to work with Petey Pablo and André 3000, but this could have been Jack just joking around.

The “First Class” rapper discusses an upcoming tour with City Girls. Harlow briefly mentions his starring role in the remake of the “White Men Can’t Jump” movie and how the part in the film came to him. Jack talks about growing up in Kentucky, being white in the hip-hop game, working with his idols, hearing rap for the first time, and dealing with fame during the interview. The interview contains exciting information about the rapper who has quickly reached rock star status.

Charlamagne tha God has partnered with iHeartMedia to launch the Black Effect Podcast Network.

The podcast network “is positioned to become the world’s largest podcast publisher dedicated to Black listeners, bringing together the most influential and trusted voices in black culture for stimulating conversations around social justice, pop culture, sports, mental health, news, comedy and more.”

Charlamagne’s vision for The Black Effect “is to amplify, elevate, and empower emerging and established talent. Our goal is to shift the narrative from Black creators signing transactional deals, to instead forming legacy partnerships that build generational wealth while allowing each creative to have an equitable stake in their future. As a long-time partner of iHeart, it’s an honor to make history with them.”

With this partnership, the nationally syndicated radio show, “The Breakfast Club,” will have replays in the form of a podcast as its flagship show.

The Black Effect Podcast Network official 18-show lineup will include: “Carefully Reckless” with Jess Hilarious; Whoreible Decisions” with Mandii B and Weezy; “The 85 South Show” with Karlous Miller, DC Young Fly and Chico Bean; “Straight Shot No Chaser” with Tezlyn Figaro; “Laugh and Learn” with Flame Monroe (executive produced by Tiffany Haddish) and more.

All of the shows that will be featured on The Black Effect Podcast Network will be distributed through iHeartMedia podcast platform, iHeartPodcast. According to Podtrac, iHeartRadio “is the leading podcast publisher” with over 225 million downloads monthly.

PepsiCo Beverages, in partnership with OMD, is the first partner for the podcast network. Katie Haniffy, PepsiCo Beverages’ Head of Media, says that PepsiCo is excited “to support this groundbreaking partnership as soon as Charlamagne and iHeart shared their vision for the network. This opportunity connects our brands to consumers through the newer trusted medium of podcasting, and more importantly, supports the overall PepsiCo strategic initiative to invest in Black communities and support diverse voices.”
