Bishop opens up about his experience being signed to Dr. Dre, the highs and lows of navigating an industry filled with politics, agendas, and fake relationships. We dive into how music and media are used to shape culture and influence the minds of the masses — from industry pressure to the idea of psychological programming and MK-Ultra. Bishop also breaks down his new album “Just Don’t Die”, his journey of staying authentic in a business that often rewards conformity, and why he continues to push forward despite the obstacles. This is a raw, thought-provoking discussion about art, power, influence, and survival in an industry built on illusion. 🔥 Get Bishop Lamont’s new album “Just Don’t Die” at: www.therevindicated.com

21 February 2026, 12:42 am - 1 hour 7 minutesOfficer Get's Away With Snatching A Life-Yet Again!
Tonight on the podcast, we step into a conversation that demands attention.
We sit down with filmmakers Laura Dylan Kerman and William Howell to discuss their powerful documentary Cycle— a film examining the death of Ty'Rese West, an 18-year-old Black teenager from Racine.
On June 15, 2019, Ty’Rese was stopped for a bicycle light violation by a sergeant from the Mount Pleasant Police Department. What followed ended with Ty’Rese being fatally shot. The officer, Eric Gizi, stated he acted in self-defense after allegedly seeing a firearm. Prosecutors later declined to file charges.
Cycle does not just revisit headlines — it explores the broader patterns, the community impact, and the questions that still echo years later.
Tonight’s conversation dives into:
-
The making of Cycle
-
The emotional weight of telling stories like this
-
Accountability, policy, and the meaning of justice
-
The ripple effects on families and communities
This is not just about one night.
It’s about the cycles we repeat — and whether we’re willing to break them.Join us for a thoughtful, necessary dialogue. Listen with an open mind. Share with intention.
