Shame on us for going 35 episodes without bringing a female rapper into the studio, but we couldn’t think of a better guest than LaLa Specific to break us out of that drought. LaLa put up with Ryan’s horrible puns to discuss her style (or styles) and the UNC Charlotte cypher world while taking us through a timeline of her bangers.

Remember to check out our new team at Queen City Podcast Network, where we’ve joined up with some of our favorite podcasts around Charlotte. You can catch up with our past episodes on iTunes or Stitcher, or just type “Local Vibes” in your Spotify search bar.
