This week’s episode of Popcast (Deluxe), the weekly culture roundup show on YouTube hosted by Jon Caramanica and Joe Coscarelli, includes segments on:
The seeming conclusion of the beef between Drake and Kendrick Lamar
The way in which Kendrick Lamar used the tools that Drake had long perfected against him, especially in the hit “Not Like Us,” now the No. 1 song in the country
How the meme ecosystem turned on Drake, long its most effective weaponizer, owing in part to the crowdsourced takedowns recorded to Metro Boomin’s instrumental song “BBL Drizzy”
What might be next for both Drake and Kendrick Lamar
Zendaya’s star turn in the tennis film “Challengers”
Whether Zendaya’s emergence as a red carpet fixture trumps her acting
Zendaya’s Disney past
Songs of the week from Post Malone featuring Morgan Wallen (“I Had Some Help”), plus Ian’s “Figure It Out” and Central Cee’s “CC Freestyle”
Snack chat about hip-hop jewelry and blown-out mixes
