In this episode, we approach another cultural piece going back to 2013 with titled Super Rich Kids from Frank Ocean’s Channel Orange Album. 

Yes, it is now over 10 years old, but this song continues to ring in people’s ears and hearts. Or, at the very least, Dcn. Max’s. 

Why? 

Well, we give an analysis of the song and draw out its major philosophical and theological themes to bring you closer to the Person who is truth…the Logos, Jesus Christ.
