Episode 149: "The "Shanelle" Bag" (w/ Derek Gaines aka Amerika)

It's been quite a while since we've sat across from a guest who lives so heavily in the social media comedy space; 84 episodes ago to be exact. Everybody loves a good laugh and within the last the last 5-10 years the internet has been completely undefeated. During that time, there have been some emerging talents within our own city who have made a name for themselves whether it be from online skits, stand-up, and even films. Amongst those names, one of the stand outs have been Derek Gaines who often goes by his alias "Amerika". Starting off with an assortment of hilarious skits with some of his friends, the Roxbury native was able to build a sizable following in and outside of The Commonwealth. Leaving home for growth worked in his favor as he's also been able to create some pretty cool relationships with other entertainers and even manages some of the day-to-day operations for Mona from "Dont Call Me White Girl" podcast (who was previously a co-host on Gillie & Wallo's "Million Dollars Worth Of Game" podcast).
It's been a long time coming but we definitely wanted to give Amerika his flowers and catch some rec all while getting to know the comedian some more. Join Charlie MaSheen, Shanelle Shanté, and KASH as they host Derek Gaines and talk about his start in comedy skits, why Mona would come for Mattapan the way she recently did on her podcast, how Shanelle could potentially ruin a bag for us, ALL LADIES NEED TO STAY AWAY FROM THE GUY WHO CREATD "MOE MONEY PROMOTIONZ", and so much more! We spoke about a lot and had a lot of fun be we also unpacked some really serious conversations. TAP IN!!!
