No Ceilings is hosted by rapper, Crip gang member, and social pundit Glasses Malone with assistance from his co-host Peter Bas. Every week, the two discuss people and things that are despised, loathed, and generally unliked by mainstream society. From prostitutes and white supremacists to Satanists and rapist, No Ceilings examines and attempts to diagnose those things we have labeled as Pariahs. A lifestyle and culture podcast featuring conversations with the intent to sway the pendulum on one’s way of thinking. As individuals are culturally bound to experiences that result in different responses - No Ceilings tough discussions, typically from opposing sides, will break down life’s interpretations.

In this episode of the No Ceilings Podcast, Glasses Malone leads a powerful conversation examining the core of hip hop culture, the sacrifices required to protect it, and the critical differences between hip hop as a cultural movement and pop music as a commercial product. The discussion centers on authenticity, cultural accountability, and responsibility, particularly when it comes to how street culture is represented and commodified.

Glasses Malone and the crew also addresses the role of gatekeepers in hip hop, the risks of cultural dilution, and the dangers of outsiders claiming identities they haven’t lived. As the conversation unfolds, the hosts explore generational divides in hip hop, the evolution of the genre in the digital era, and why preserving its roots remains essential—even as the culture continues to grow and adapt.

Conversations On Knowing When To Shut Up 


https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/ef45e10a-da6f-4261-84ec-b3b5013226be/transcript

In this episode of No Ceilings, Glasses Malone and Rose Gold Pete dive deep into the intersection of music, creativity, and the societal forces that shape personal fulfillment. They explore what makes an artist’s voice truly unique, how parenthood can both challenge and fuel creativity, and the tension between material success and holistic well-being. The conversation examines the difference between the human mind and the human condition, highlighting how modern distractions—from social media to substance use—impact emotional regulation and artistic expression.

Glasses and Pete also reflect on the evolving definition of the American Dream, economic inequality, cultural identity, and the subconscious burden many people carry while navigating today’s social landscape. Ultimately, they challenge listeners to reject mediocrity, embrace self-awareness, and maximize their potential in a world engineered to keep people unfocused and unfulfilled.

The No Ceilings crew dive into the evolving realities of the American Dream, examining how real estate, politics, and education shape opportunity in today’s economy. They break down the stark differences in housing affordability across states—from accessible markets like Oklahoma to high-cost regions such as Massachusetts—and discuss how these disparities influence long-term financial stability and generational wealth.

The conversation expands into the broader political and educational landscape, highlighting how government policy, market manipulation, and unequal access to quality education impact social mobility. They also reflect on how economic inequality, shifting political ideologies, and rising living costs have redefined what the American dream looks like for many people, questioning whether it's still attainable in a rapidly changing society.
