Memphis rapper Big Homie G returns to Skipping Class for his second episode and gets more personal than ever. In this sit-down, he opens up about catching walking pneumonia, having to learn to walk again, and how the experience changed his mindset and music.  G also talks fatherhood, teaching his son about guns, dealing with doubt, healing from loss, and what it means to love openly as a Black man. He shares his thoughts on the biggest misconceptions about Memphis, Donald Trump sending the National Guard to the city, and Pooh Shiesty coming home from prison.  The rapper also breaks down his new project Back Active, the upcoming deluxe, working with R&B artists, and elevating the next generation of Memphis talent.  Another powerful conversation hosted by Lalaa Shepard of The Progress Report.  Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/bighomiieg/  https://www.instagram.com/lalaashep/  https://www.instagram.com/theprogressreport101/  https://www.instagram.com/tprmediagroup1/  Website:  https://TPRMediaGroup.com  Listen to us on Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-progress-report-podcast/id1494070183  Listen to us on Spotify Podcasts https://open.spotify.com/show/5sBgF6wWa7NmHraP2QuBEv?si=a0f5f19b8a494fb5 Learn more about your ad choices.
