On this episode of Hanging With Apes, K. Cartoon retracts statements he made about Vic Mensa being a mumble rapper and and actually shares how much he liked Mensa\'s debut album "The Autobiography." Rx Phonics then transitions into how music has recently taken a safer route as opposed to pushing boundaries like some of the best music in the late 90\'s and early 2000\'s. The conversation then leads to both K. Cartoon and Rx Phonics agreeing that it might be because\\xa0record companies are scared of controversy. In this day and age companies like YouTube are taking it upon themselves to choose what should and shouldn\'t be censored and of course controversial music then greatly affect sales if it is censored. Finally, the guys end their conversation talking about the Google engineer who\\xa0was fired for writing Google a memo or "manifesto," as some news outlets have called it, on\\xa0his views on their diversity initiatives.\\xa0
