It’s gonna get a little disturbing this week on The Message!

There's a quote that goes, "Art is supposed to disturb the comfortable and comfort the disturbed." And this week's messenger of the night is the poster child of musical art that disturbs. So of course, they'll be starting out the show with your message of the night. I've got three music drops for you hip-hop heads, so make sure you pull up, and then we'll go to the corner store and get your three music news stories that's downright disturbing. And did you hear about this haunted venue on the Minnesota music scene? Because if not, we'll talk about that disturbing story this week as well. And finally, your messenger of the night will close out the show with the dance club billboard hit, as well as two more of their songs. Beware, we're disturbing the comfortable and comforting the disturbed this week on The Message.
