    Apr 15 2025

    Welcome to a brand-new episode of Who Is Tyronza?

    Tyronza is back, and this time he’s coming for the clippers, the culture, and the chaos.

    In this episode:

    • He shares his unfiltered take on barbers — the fades, the frauds, and the ones still blaming the clippers.
    • Talks about how the Pop the Balloon Show got gentrified into a Whole Foods fever dream.
    • Breaks down the never-ending saga of Kendrick vs Drake — a rap beef with no off-ramp.
    • Reacts to yet another Kanye crash-out, because of course.
    • And sighs through the continuing saga of Ja Morant: Part ∞.

    It’s sharp commentary with Tyronza’s signature wit, side-eye, and truth bombs.

  • Habit Breakers
    Apr 8 2025

    Welcome to a brand-new episode of Who Is Tyronza?

    We’re starting this episode (Ep.02) on our High School Musical vibes — but don’t get too comfortable.

    A young Black scholar secures 60 college offers and over $1M in scholarships — major props to #MantavisPresley!

    Then it gets messy: Malik Yoba says “He’s not Black, he’s Non-White” (whew), Jess Hilarious crashes out on The Breakfast Club, Marvin Sapp yells “Close the doors!”, and Shonda Rhimes drops another banger with The Residence.

    Also… I gotta stop biting my nails, but life be life-ing.

    Tune in for hot takes, real talk, and a little self-reflection.
