More new music coming throughout the show but I got a party to talk about and a very special guest joining us. Nobody does it like Spotify. Grammy week is approaching and one of the biggest events of the year is their Best New Artist party that always brings the biggest performers and the brightest talent with this year’s lineup on February 1 including performers like Jelly Roll, Victoria Monét and more. And speaking of the party, I have some very talented friends I haven’t hung out with in a while here to talk with us. Hey, War and Treaty, what’s going on?
