Podcasts about Erykah Badu

The prompt for this episode is quite categorical: pick a live album. An album that was recorded live in front of an audience. After a brief generalized discussion on the medium of live albums and what they accomplish - we dive into Danny's pick, one of the most highly praised live albums of all time.Consisting of 7 songs that span across two vinyl discs, Danny's pick, "At Fillmore East," was the Allman Brothers Band's 3rd overall album. It serves as a document of their early 70's live show, which pushed them to levels of popularity that their studio albums couldn't. With a ragtag crew of two masterful drummers, one of the greatest guitarists of all time and the only person who could keep up with and out-compose him, a dynamic bass player, and soulful lead vocalist/organ player - their powers are on full display "At Fillmore East" with no overdubs necessary.A lesser-discussed but equally as powerful and moving live album is Erykah Badu's second overall album, simply called "Live." Julius's pick may have been a performance in-studio for industry professionals, but their enthusiasm and the tightness of all musicians involved allows you to become entranced with the live show Ms. Badu was bringing across the country to promote her debut, "Baduizm." With a bold proclamation regarding this album, Danny is now a proud converted Baduizt that will go on to spread the word of the magic captured on this 1997 release.LINKSAt Fillmore East with Original Versions of the CoversLive with Original Versions of the CoversMy Morning Jacket featuring Erykah Badu: "Tyrone"Full My Morning Jacket show from 5/31/11 with Erykah Badu's 4 song guest appearanceSend us a text message!You can follow us here:InstagramTwitterTiktokCheck out our preview episodes to stay caught up with what we're listening to!Send us a message, we'd love to hear from you!

This week, JP sits down with Glen from Green Dragon, a true pioneer whose journey runs deep through both the music industry and cannabis culture.Before building a cannabis powerhouse, Glen was producing records like “Love of My Life” by Erykah Badu and “Dance Tonight” by Lucy Pearl — eventually finding himself tapped in with names like Dr. Dre and Raphael Saadiq during his time in LA.From there, the transition into cannabis came naturally — and over the past 20+ years, Green Dragon has grown into a full-scale operation with dispensaries, cultivation, nursery, and distribution.

Rising hip hop influencer Cameron McCloud lets us in on his journey and his processPART ONE: Paul and Scott chat about a song that's getting a lot of hate online and consider how the internet has redefined how we hear music. PART TWO:  Our in-depth conversation with Cameron McCloudABOUT CAMERON McCLOUD Cure for Paranoia is the Dallas-based alternative hip hop collective fronted by Cameron McCloud. Crowned "Rap Group of the Year" by the Dallas Entertainment Awards in 2025 and "Artist of the Year" in 2026, the group's name came about following McCloud's diagnosis with bipolar depression and paranoid schizophrenia. Their breakthrough came when Erykah Badu's tapped them to perform at her birthday bash, and they have since shared bills with such artists as George Clinton, Nas, Ludacris, and Leon Bridges. The group was named NPR Tiny Desk Contest finalists three times in 2023, 2024, and 2025 before winning the contest in 2026. In addition to the success of their most recent EP, Work of Art, they've gained attention online thanks to Cameron's 2025 challenge to release an original verse every day on his social media channels. Tackling everything from mental health to social injustice, his rhymes earned a substantial following. Inspired by groups such as Outkast, The Roots, and a Tribe Called Quest, Cameron McCloud and Cure for Paranoia are rapidly gaining a major national audience.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

En 2005, uno de los productores de hip-hop más influyentes del planeta llegó a casa de Sérgio Mendes con una pila de vinilos bajo el brazo. Todos eran discos de Sérgio Mendes. will.i.am llevaba catorce años sampleando en secreto aquella música. Había llegado el momento de confesárselo a su autor. Timeless (2006) no fue un rescate ni un homenaje. Fue la demostración pública de algo que los productores de hip-hop llevaban décadas sabiendo en voz baja: que la música brasileña de los años 60 y 70 era uno de los grandes tesoros ocultos de la cultura popular del siglo XX. Madlib, Jay-Z, Kanye West, J Dilla, Flying Lotus — todos habían ido a los mismos vinilos, a las mismas grabaciones, a buscar el groove que no encontraban en ningún otro sitio. Lo que Mendes y will.i.am hicieron juntos fue llevar esa conversación subterránea a la superficie. Con una lista de invitados que incluye a Erykah Badu, Stevie Wonder, John Legend, Q-Tip, Jill Scott, Justin Timberlake e india.arie, Timeless fue el primer intento de hacer esa tesis visible para el gran público: que la bossa nova, la samba y el hip-hop son primos que crecieron separados pero que comparten el mismo impulso rítmico — el mismo origen africano. En este episodio rastreamos ese encuentro desde sus raíces hasta sus consecuencias: cómo se gestó Timeless, qué vino después — Encanto, Bom Tempo, Magic — y por qué una puerta que se abre, ya no se puede cerrar.

Erykah är på gång med det efterlängtade Alchemistsamarbetet Abi & Alan. Uppföljaren till 2015-års mixtape But you caint use my phone. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Första gången som vi möts sitter sångerskan på golvet med benen i kors. Röd turban på huvudet, och den fasthållande blicken riktad mot bandet som rullar.Den andra gången nuddar hennes afro min axel. En afro som innehåller olika symboler: knytnävar, kanyler, piskor, pistoler, foster och handfängsel. Erykahs musik fylldes allt mer av ett tillbakahållet vrede och en stämning som förflyttade lyssnaren till en tid då musiken var samhällsmedveten och militant. Två möten med Badu målar bilden av en kompromisslös artist som fick klassisk soul att blomma ut på ett nytt sätt. En känsla som omvärlden döpte till neosoul.Den andliga rebellen som fortsätter att inspirera nya generationer är en anmodan om något från det förflutna och framtiden.

Bass Arch 15 – Full Tracklist & Synopsis Tracklist Erykah Badu – Tyrone De La Soul – Me Myself and I Diago – Step On Down Method Man – Jabberwock Pecoe – Shake That Funk tha Beat – In the Mix Warner Case & Jean Tonique – Shake Our Bones John Julius Knight – So What It's a Jazz Thing Carey Holmes & Larry LaBirt – Let's Do It Again Hardsoul ft. Ron Carroll – Back Together High Beam – Just What I Said Vibe Chemistry – Living Like This Bomb the Bass – One to One Religion Full Synopsis Bass Arch 15 traces the living memory of bass music, moving fluidly from warm, organic roots in soul, jazz, and hip-hop through to modern house, drum & bass, and experimental electronic terrain. The episode opens in rich, classic territory with Erykah Badu's “Tyrone” and De La Soul's “Me Myself and I”, grounding the set in golden-era soul and conscious hip-hop. From there it slides into funk-driven energy with Diago's “Step On Down”, Method Man's “Jabberwock”, Pecoe's “Shake That”, and Funk tha Beat's “In the Mix” — a run of raw, bass-heavy grooves that celebrate swing, attitude, and dancefloor physicality. The tone then shifts into modern reinterpretation. Warner Case & Jean Tonique's “Shake Our Bones” injects nu-disco production into vintage groove language, proving how bass memory is constantly recycled and refreshed for today's club culture. This segues into deeper jazz-house waters with John Julius Knight's “So What It's a Jazz Thing” and the feel-good soulful bounce of Carey Holmes & Larry LaBirt's “Let's Do It Again”. The episode lifts into proper soulful house uplift with Hardsoul ft. Ron Carroll's “Back Together”, where soaring gospel vocals and punchy programmed basslines create an emotional, communal peak. Immediately afterward, High Beam's “Just What I Said” pulls the sound into minimalist, sample-based electronic textures — a sleek contemporary reinterpretation of earlier musical identities. Late in the mix, drum & bass energy arrives via Vibe Chemistry's “Living Like This”. Rolling basslines and liquid rhythms carry forward the emotional DNA of soul and jazz into high-tempo UK rave territory, blending warmth and intensity at breakneck speed. The episode closes in a darker, more experimental space with Bomb the Bass's “One to One Religion”. Here bass becomes atmospheric architecture — reduced, industrial, and deeply spatial — suggesting future directions for electronic music that move beyond pure dancefloor functionality into immersive, cinematic territory. Bass Arch 15 is a journey that honors the continuum of bass culture: from the organic and familiar to the futuristic and abstract, always anchored in groove, soul, and low-end resonance.

BONUS: Top Republicans are attacking what they call “woke” politics, and even passing laws designed to “stop” a supposed woke agenda. The singer who first brought that concept to the culture, in “Master Teacher,” Erykah Badu, reflects on social justice, culture and “woke politics” today – one of several topics the four-time Grammy winner tackles in this extended discussion with MSNBC anchor and music obsessive Ari Melber. Badu discusses her singing, deep links to hip hop, personal evolution, spirituality and approach to the music industry and business in general, including her new cannabis line with “Cookies.” She also reacts to earlier moments and videos from her career, and engages with an “assessment” of her work that an artificial intelligence chat bot generated by drawing on public writings about her music and its message. This in-depth discussion is the newest installment of “Mavericks with Ari Melber,” a series of interviews with artists, musicians and cultural icons (Aired in 2023) To listen to this show and other MS podcasts without ads, sign up for MS NOW Premium on Apple Podcasts.

Some musicians learn the blues. Others are raised inside it.Today I sit down with Doyle Bramhall II, one of the most distinctive voices in modern blues guitar and contemporary roots music. Raised in Texas as the son of legendary musician Doyle Bramhall, he grew up surrounded by the raw musical energy of the Austin music scene, absorbing the sounds of blues and rock from an early age.Doyle has built a remarkable career as a guitarist, vocalist, composer, and producer, collaborating with artists including Eric Clapton, Elton John, Gary Clark Jr., Dr. John, Gregg Allman, Sheryl Crow, and Erykah Badu. His playing style is instantly recognizable, partly because he plays left-handed with a guitar strung for a right-handed player and flipped upside down.We dive into the fascinating origins of his musical journey, including the moment when a visit from someone special inspired him to take the guitar seriously. Doyle shares his insight into his personal work developing the Ultimate Breakthrough, a process designed to support energetic and consciousness shifts aligned with one's purpose.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[07:53] Growing up inside the Austin blues scene[17:03] How playing guitar upside down led to the Eric Clapton gig[38:54] From the Fabulous Thunderbirds to the Archangels[44:05] How Stevie's death sent Doyle into a two-year heroin spiral[57:51] What made Sly Stone one of the most innovative artists who ever lived[01:23:46] Staying sober while working with plant medicine[01:35:14] The chain of synchronicities that led Doyle from isolation to his life's calling[01:55:23] How Doyle's healing practice works and happens during a session[02:07:55] The three influences that shaped Doyle as a musicianRelated The Life Stylist Episodes:Not Just For Sleep: Melatonin | The Master Molecule + Next Level Biohacks w/ Dr. John Lieurance | PodcastThe Future Of Chronic Pain & Injury Healing W/ Drs.

Linktree: ⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/Analytic⁠⁠Join The Normandy For Additional Bonus Audio And Visual Content For All Things Nme+! Join Here: ⁠⁠https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0K⁠⁠Dive into the monumental arrival of J. Cole's purported final chapter on Notorious Mass Effect with Analytic Dreamz. This segment examines "The Fall-Off," the rapper's seventh studio album and only double album, released February 6, 2026, via Dreamville and Interscope Records.Analytic Dreamz details the project's ambitious scope: 24 tracks split across two discs ("Disc 29" and "Disc 39"), exceeding 100 minutes in runtime, with a reflective, career-summation narrative echoing mixtape-era aesthetics. Features include Future (on multiple tracks), Tems, Burna Boy, Erykah Badu, Morray, Petey Pablo, PJ, and others, backed by production from Cole himself, T-Minus, The Alchemist, Boi-1da, FnZ, and more.As of February 13, 2026, industry projections from Hits Daily Double and echoed across Complex, XXL, and HotNewHipHop position the album for a No. 1 debut on the Billboard 200 with approximately 291,000 album-equivalent units in its first week—around 115,000 in pure sales (CDs, vinyl, digital downloads) driven by the innovative "Trunk Sale" tour tactic for direct-to-consumer physicals, plus 176,000 from streaming and equivalents. This would mark Cole's seventh consecutive No. 1, surpassing his 2021 The Off-Season (282K) and far exceeding 2024's Might Delete Later (115K), amid the "final album" hype fueling media and fan amplification.Analytic Dreamz analyzes the market signals: robust physical component stands out in modern rap, long tracklist boosts streaming volume, and strategic narrative plus tour activation align for strong commercial impact.

Linktree: ⁠https://linktr.ee/Analytic⁠Join The Normandy For Additional Bonus Audio And Visual Content For All Things Nme+! Join Here: ⁠https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0K⁠Dive into the monumental arrival of J. Cole's purported final chapter on Notorious Mass Effect with Analytic Dreamz. This segment examines "The Fall-Off," the rapper's seventh studio album and only double album, released February 6, 2026, via Dreamville and Interscope Records.Analytic Dreamz details the project's ambitious scope: 24 tracks split across two discs ("Disc 29" and "Disc 39"), exceeding 100 minutes in runtime, with a reflective, career-summation narrative echoing mixtape-era aesthetics. Features include Future (on multiple tracks), Tems, Burna Boy, Erykah Badu, Morray, Petey Pablo, PJ, and others, backed by production from Cole himself, T-Minus, The Alchemist, Boi-1da, FnZ, and more.As of February 13, 2026, industry projections from Hits Daily Double and echoed across Complex, XXL, and HotNewHipHop position the album for a No. 1 debut on the Billboard 200 with approximately 291,000 album-equivalent units in its first week—around 115,000 in pure sales (CDs, vinyl, digital downloads) driven by the innovative "Trunk Sale" tour tactic for direct-to-consumer physicals, plus 176,000 from streaming and equivalents. This would mark Cole's seventh consecutive No. 1, surpassing his 2021 The Off-Season (282K) and far exceeding 2024's Might Delete Later (115K), amid the "final album" hype fueling media and fan amplification.Analytic Dreamz analyzes the market signals: robust physical component stands out in modern rap, long tracklist boosts streaming volume, and strategic narrative plus tour activation align for strong commercial impact. Critical reception highlights lyrical introspection and evolution, though some note self-referential elements and length. With no major contradictory forecasts, this positions "The Fall-Off" among 2026's top rap openings, confirming Cole's enduring dominance while priming for official chart confirmation.Stay tuned as Analytic Dreamz provides the comprehensive breakdown on this landmark release and its place in hip-hop legacy.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/exclusive-contentPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Cole delivers his most ambitious and introspective work yet with The Fall Off, his self-proclaimed final album released February 6, 2026. This double album spans 24 tracks across two discs—Disc 29 and Disc 39—each featuring 11 main songs plus a bonus. Presented by Analytic Dreamz on Notorious Mass Effect, this segment breaks down the project's profound narrative structure.Disc 29 captures J. Cole at age 29, returning to his Fayetteville hometown a decade after moving to New York, reflecting on pivotal crossroads in relationships, career dedication, and city roots. Disc 39 shifts to age 39, offering an older, more peaceful perspective on a similar homecoming, shaped by creative renewal following his 2024 resolution with Kendrick Lamar.Nearly eight years after teasing the concept in KOD's "1985," The Fall Off evolves into a full-circle moment from Cole's debut era. Executive produced by J. Cole, Ibrahim “IB” Hamad, T-Minus, and Dreamville, the album maintains minimal features for a self-driven feel, with standout contributions from Future on “Run a Train,” Tems and Erykah Badu on “Bunce Road Blues,” Burna Boy on “Only You,” Westside Gunn on “The Villest,” and others.The rollout emphasized intimacy and scarcity: announced in January 2026, preceded by the Birthday Blizzard '26 EP (four freestyles hosted by DJ Clue on Cole's 41st birthday), and distributed direct-to-consumer via his official website for stronger fan ownership and data control. Selective press included one major interview, while fan-led listening events in homes, record stores, bars, and spaces like Brooklyn Public Library's Bars & Books gathering amplified community engagement over traditional hype.Thematically, subtle nods to the 2024 lyrical tensions appear, notably in the alternate-history track “What If,” imagining reconciliation. Analytic Dreamz explores how this strategic, narrative-first approach reinforces J. Cole's authenticity, prioritizing depth, loyalty, and legacy over mass exposure in today's industry landscape.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

A catchup with the Limerick rapper, poet, thinker, writer and actor Denise Chaila. Denise Chaila has been working on her own artist development in recent years. The Limerick artist has spent time away from the spotlight surfacing only to offer a glimpse of what's preoccupying her eloquent mind. A lot has happened in the five and half years (!) since Denise and I sat down with pals to have a chat for the Podcast. This time around, it's just the two of us, with Denise sharing the journey that took her from Ed Sheeran remixes and support slots to an artistic and creative re-evaluation that prompted her to put the breaks on her career as it barrelled ever higher and forward. In this episode, Denise tells us why she shunned the limelight, and the machinations of the music industry around her, and illuminates on recent times that have taken her to visit the childhood homes of J Dilla (Detroit) and Michael Jackson (Indiana), making a film with Limerick-born LA photographer and director Brian Cross aka B+ about the Supremes performing in Limerick, meeting Erykah Badu and her recent experiences exploring traditional Irish music and sessions. On Friday, Denise Chaila performs a rare hometown show as part of All We Have Are Days, with the show at billed as an in conversation and performance, which as Denise told me will aim to tear down the barriers of performer and audience.   * Support Nialler9 on Patreon, get event discounts, playlists, ad-free episodes and join our Discord community Listen on Apple | Android  | Patreon | Pocketcasts | CastBox | Stitcher | Spotify | RSS Feed | Pod.Link

Madlib är den ende som finns kvar av den heliga treenigheten. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Medan musiker försöker hinna ifatt J Dilla och MF Doom reser Madlib vidare i sitt beatuniversum, fullt upptagen med att förändra föreställningen om det förgångna för framtidens musikälskare.Människor som mött honom nämner hans inbundna och tystlåtna personlighet. Erykah Badu säger att Madlib är så begåvad att det förmodligen gjort honom galen. Namnet är talande - mad liberation. Musiken blir en ordlös befrielse.När en av hiphopens mest mytomspunna och stilbildande producenter väl känner för att prata, vilket inte är så ofta, väljer han sina ord sparsamt och nästan lika noggrant som han selekterar samplingarna. Madlib påstår att han ibland tillbringar tre dagar i sträck i studion utan sömn, utan att förflytta sig från samplern och vinylhögen. Förmodligen färdas han någonstans.Den första delen av två bygger på två möten med Madlib. Mats Nileskär intervjuar även Peanut Butter Wolf, Oh No, Prince Paul, Randy Muller, Kashif, Bob James och Freddie Gibbs.

Erykah är på gång med det efterlängtade Alchemistsamarbetet Abi & Alan. Uppföljaren till 2015-års mixtape But you caint use my phone. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Första gången som vi möts sitter sångerskan på golvet med benen i kors. Röd turban på huvudet, och den fasthållande blicken riktad mot bandet som rullar. Den andra gången nuddar hennes afro min axel. En afro som innehåller olika symboler: knytnävar, kanyler, piskor, pistoler, foster och handfängsel. Erykahs musik fylldes allt mer av ett tillbakahållet vrede och en stämning som förflyttade lyssnaren till en tid då musiken var samhällsmedveten och militant. Två möten med Badu målar bilden av en kompromisslös artist som fick klassisk soul att blomma ut på ett nytt sätt. En känsla som omvärlden döpte till neosoul.Den andliga rebellen som fortsätter att inspirera nya generationer är en anmodan om något från det förflutna och framtiden.

Frizz and Bob clink a Coors Banquet and a bottle of Orange Groove Wine as they host the most prestigious, unserious award ceremony in music - the 3rd Annual Rhythm on the Rocks Annual Awards Show. Part celebration, part chaos, part Slim Jim fever dream - together, they hand out honors like Hidden Banger of the Year, Most Disappointing Album, and the coveted Ballbag of the Year, while revisiting everything from Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds to Erykah Badu, Springsteen to Grunge, and conspiracy theories & beyond. At our loosiest and goosiest, we cheers to another year of deep dives and good vibes.

25 years ago this week, at the turn of the millennium, Eyrkah Badu released her second album, Mama's Gun. The album went certified platinum, and is considered to be one of the best in Badu's career. James Poyser is a keyboardist for The Roots, and one of Badu's closest collaborators who was in the studio with Erykah to make Mama's Gun. Poyser shares his memories of the album, and listeners share their memories of the music, in this installment of our Silver Liner Notes album anniversary series.

The singer and songwriter on her reign as one of music's most idiosyncratic, spiritual figures and where her creative impulses are headed next.

Time's Taylor Crumpton returns to Pop Pantheon to explore the deeply personal and trenchantly political R&B of neo-soul earth mother Erykah Badu.

This week we’re celebrating two iconic albums that have shaped the sound and soul of a generation, Erykah Badu’s Mama’s Gun and Jill Scott’s Who Is Jill Scott? Words and Sounds Vol. 1, both turning 25 this year. Joining us for this nostalgic and soul-filled conversation is Taryn Finley, journalist and founder of the Unbothered platform. During this conversation, we explore how these albums captured the essence of Black womanhood, love, sensuality, and self-discovery, and why they remain powerful touchstones for healing and self-expression today. We also talk about the emotional honesty both artists brought to their music and how their art continues to inspire new generations to embrace softness, vulnerability, and joy.

Interviewers: Joe Moore & Anne Philippi Guests: TK Wonder & Cipriana Quann (The Quann Sisters) Recorded: June 18 during MAPS PS 2025 Content note: This episode discusses childhood sexual, physical, and emotional abuse, suicidal ideation, disordered eating, and recovery. Identical twins, writers, and culture-shapers TK Wonder and Cipriana Quann join Joe and Anne for a frank, generous conversation about identity, resilience, and the long arc of healing. Cipriana recounts launching Urban Bush Babes in 2011 to center women of color in beauty and fashion—work that led to a Vogue “day-in-the-life” feature and collaborations with couture houses. TK shares the parallel path of her music career (opening for artists from Sting and Nas to Erykah Badu and Queens of the Stone Age) and the sisters' ongoing writing, public speaking, and mental-health advocacy. They reflect on the fashion industry's policing of natural hair, how those daily microaggressions erode self-worth, and why legal protections like the CROWN Act matter. The heart of the episode is their survival story: a decade of abuse by their father, endured separately yet witnessed together. Seeing one another live through it—“a physical manifestation of survival,” as they put it—kept them alive. As adults, daily check-ins remain their core practice. Psychedelics entered their lives years later. With careful set and setting, education, and professional support, psychedelic sessions—especially ibogaine—helped surface grief, release shame, and reframe entrenched coping strategies. Cipriana's first extended session unlocked tears she'd been forced to suppress as a child; TK describes a transformative ibogaine experience that catalyzed a decisive shift away from refined sugar and ultra-processed foods toward sustained movement, earlier mornings, and mindful nourishment. Both emphasize that psychedelics are not “magic pills” in isolation: integration, therapy, community, and lifestyle design make insights durable. The conversation also tackles safety and access. The sisters stress working with experienced facilitators and medical oversight, naming that these modalities aren't for everyone. They call for more affordability and BIPOC representation in a field that can still feel exclusionary, while holding a wide tent vision—everyone deserves the chance to heal. They note how narratives are changing (from early-2000s panic to mainstream book-club conversations), and how stories alongside science move culture and policy. Highlights Fashion, hair politics, and the CROWN Act's importance. Sisterhood as lifeline; daily check-ins as grown-up therapy. First sessions: somatic release, grief, and reframing shame. Ibogaine's role in behavior change; why integration is the bridge. Safety, access, and representation: making healing containers truly welcoming. If you're exploring this work: educate deeply, choose qualified support, prioritize integration, and remember—your past is a chapter, not your whole story.

The RH Factor's Hard Groove might sound uncontroversial to modern ears, but in the early 2000s it was revolutionary. With this record, Roy Hargrove broke away from the straight-ahead jazz revival of the Young Lions era and created something entirely new. Hard Groove blended Roy's trumpet with the voices of R&B and soul heavyweights like D'Angelo, Erykah Badu, and Common, artists whose platinum-selling albums (Voodoo, Mama's Gun, Like Water for Chocolate) already featured Roy's melodic horn playing and orchestral arrangements.With Hard Groove, Roy flipped the script: instead of lending his sound to the hip hop and neo-soul world, he invited those artists into a jazz record. The result was a landmark project that blurred genres and redefined what jazz could be in the 21st century.You'll Hear It has been nominated for a Listener's Choice award for Best Music Podcast at the Signal Awards.
