Podcasts about Quiet storm

Anita Baker's second album, “Rapture,” was released in 1986 and became a breakout hit for the R & B singer from Detroit, winning two Grammys and selling eight million copies worldwide. The album's eight tracks defined her signature sound — what Baker liked to call “fireside love songs with jazz overtones” — and solidified her as a giant of the Quiet Storm radio era. But while the singer went on to produce four more albums, most notably her follow-up, “Giving You the Best That I Got,” in 1988, she hasn't maintained the mainstream presence of her “Rapture” years. Today, Wesley wonders: Is Baker underrated, properly rated, or just kind of … forgotten? He brings these questions to Danyel Smith, former editor at Billboard and editor in chief of Vibe Magazine. Together, they luxuriate in Anita Baker's “Rapture” while wrestling with her legacy. Subscribe today at nytimes.com/podcasts or on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

The Quiet Storm

In the mid-1970's, a small college radio station created an evening program catering to a new socioeconomic group referred to as the “new Black middle class.” The show was called “The Quiet Storm” and it grew so popular that an entire genre of music would spring up alongside it. Artists like Anita Baker, Luther Vandross, and many more would find massive success in the genre, performing smooth and sexy songs you could turn on after a long day. Audio producer Christopher Johnson made a piece about The Quiet Storm for the legendary podcast about design 99% Invisible and he joins Anna to talk about why Quiet Storm music will always feel like home to him.You can listen to The Quiet Storm playlist from 99% Invisible here: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0cuU6j4C77EEuQDRWEEKFb?si=a2u3yKzLTwqz7cvycywmUw This episode was produced for DSM by Andrew Dunn.

The Quiet Storm

Quiet Storm is an unforgettable first statement from Charli LeBeau, proving that the loudest emotions are often whispered instead of shouted. It is a debut built for rainy nights, long drives, and anyone learning to find light inside the shadows.

Producer Joe will joins us shortly to go over the disappointing night in Seattle. Soccer hating guy is about to have a big day. Disappointing how it went down. Audio of Former USWNT Captain Becky Sauerbrunn on the loss and the team's effort. Christian Pulisic on the world stage. Eric Wynalda on the loss to Belgium: "They stopped playing. They went stagnant, and it breaks my heart." Would Jackson rather watch tennis or hockey? And now it's on to Cards/Brewers. The Ryan Fernandez situation. Oli Marmol on the loss, Bruhl's injury, and Dustin May's outing.Prod Joe joins us to put a bow on last night's debacle. Difficult to question effort but it didn't look good. Looking ahead at where the USMNT goes from here. Chrisitan Pulisic as "The Chosen One." People love Prod Joe's knowledge. And Prod Joe likes Brian Haenchen. Cam will be in on Thursday and Friday. Big ol hands. Cam's not a fake bro. Aggressive vs. Standoffish. Vocal fry.Nothing to worry about, Brian. This is a family show. Cards calling up Luis Gastelum. Me am girl you dum dum. Key stretch coming up over the next 7 games. Tough to see the bullpen getting burnt in a game you could have/should have had. Gotta face The Miz today. Depth at catcher.So much happening during the break. Jackson will be sleeping on the couch on the family trip this weekend. Larry Nickel isn't happy how long he's been on hold. Big night on Raw last night, did anyone see it coming? Did someone tickle Larry's belly? Shocking Top 5 country rankings.Whip Appeal is not about cars. Audio of Carli Lloyd not mincing words on USMNT or Christian Pulisic. Never any real drama last night. Don't sleep on Egypt.Derek Goold's chat discussing the possibility of moving Wetherholt to third. Is the Blaze Jordan experiment still ongoing? Is the long-term third base solution in the organization?Cardinal bullpen discussion with the Bruhl injury.Brody Herman in studio for his weekly segment.What's your favorite Wesley Snipes movie? Patrick Swayze. Movie Boi (and Gareth) are preparing for The Odyssey. The Fan. Is Jackson retiring from golf? Mugsy Bogues body pillow. Picks to click.Making mixtapes. Quiet Storm with Doc Wynter on Magic 108. Starting pitchers have been released for today's games.E-Mail of the DayTime to unload the barrel.

Join us for an exclusive, deep dive into the golden era of R&B with award-winning DJ, educator, and USA Today bestselling author Amani Roberts. In this special episode, we pull back the curtain on the rich tapestry of 90s R&B, exploring the cultural shifts, industry secrets, and the surprising reasons why the dominant groups of that era began to fade. Amani Roberts brings his expert insight to the table, breaking down the impact of the 1996 Telecommunications Act, the transformation of radio formats, and the industry's pivot away from group-based talent toward solo artists. From the legendary status of Boys II Men to the overlooked struggles of iconic acts like TLC and En Vogue, we uncover the hidden history of the music that shaped a generation. We also discuss the blueprint for the next generation of supergroups and why nostalgia-driven tours are currently the most powerful force in music. Whether you are an R&B diehard, a music history buff, or interested in the business of entertainment, this conversation offers a fresh look at the rhythm and soul of the 90s.  Make sure to check out Amani's book, “The Quiet Storm,” for a deeper exploration into these stories. https://www.amazon.com/Quiet-Storm-Historical-Cultural-Analysis/dp/1734346620  0:00 Exploring The Cultural Impact Of 90s R&B Music 5:40 The Journey of Writing a Book on Black R&B Groups 8:08 Underrated R&B Groups and Their Impact on Music History 11:14 The Decline of R&B Groups and Media's Impact 18:51 90s R&B Groups and Their Lasting Impact 23:51 The Evolution and Challenges of Modern Boy Bands 24:24 The Rise and Fall of 90s R&B Groups 28:57 The Revival of R&B Tours and Nostalgia's Economic Impact 31:04 Imagining an 80s Supergroup with Luther Vandross and Others 35:02 Iconic 90s R&B Groups and Their Irreplaceable Lead Singers 40:38 Inspiration Behind Iconic Songs by Various Artists 45:17 Underrated Producers Who Shaped 90s Music 52:39 Artists Who Should Have Stayed With Their Groups 1:01:25 The Rise of Supergroups in Modern Music 1:09:31 Exploring Music Legends, Super Groups, and Iconic Songs 1:22:33 Music Industry Insights and Networking Opportunities   BRAND New Voicemail 314-649-3113 Join the I Only Listen to 90s Music Facebook Group http://bit.ly/3k0UEDe      Follow I Only Listen to 90s Music on IG https://bit.ly/3sbCphv       Follow SOLC Network online Instagram: https://bit.ly/39VL542                          Twitter: https://bit.ly/39aL395                          Facebook: https://bit.ly/3sQn7je                To Listen to the podcast Podbean https://bit.ly/3t7SDJH                      YouTube http://bit.ly/3ouZqJU                      Spotify http://spoti.fi/3pwZZnJ                     Apple http://apple.co/39rwjD1  IHeartRadio http://ihr.fm/2L0A2y
