About this episode

Trailer for 2024's 10-part Season 2 of the NAACP Image Award-nominated true crime podcast. Darren Seals, 29-year-old rapper and famed activist, hailed as a possible successor to Malcolm X, is found shot dead inside his burning Jeep the morning after Labor Day 2016. Six years later, the former Missouri state senator who was in the Ferguson movement with him, Maria Chappelle-Nadal, joins co-host Ray Nowosielski and our investigative team for a two-plus years investigation and all of its twists and turns. They cross a landscape of rap artists, protestors, gang members, cops, FBI agents and even a serial killer, from the streets of St. Louis to the HQ of JayZ’s Roc Nation in New York City, from government offices to prison cells, picking up the trail left by Darren's murderer -- with an ending you have to hear to believe.
