For the holiday weekend, we're revisiting our recent interview with Questlove. His documentary, SLY LIVES! (aka The Burden of Black Genius), examines Sly Stone's enormous impact on music — and the price he paid for it. "Sly will invent the alphabet for which most of pop and R&B or Black music will write from for the next 60 years," Questlove says. "We're still writing from his dictionary to this day."Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Sly Stone maakte revolutionaire muziek, met invloeden van soul, rock en funk. Hij was een verbinder in de tijd dat de VS verscheurd werd door rassenrellen en protesten tegen de Vietnamoorlog. Sly ontpopte zich met zijn multiraciale band tot een verbinder en een innovator, tot de druk hem te veel werd en hij zich verloor in zwaar druggebruik. Questlove maakte een prachtige film over hem, in deze podcast het verhaal over een muzikaal genie.
J. Geils Band frontman extraordinaire Peter Wolf has released his new memoir Waiting on the Moon: Artists, Poets, Drifters, Grifters, and Goddesses and to celebrate sat down for an in-depth conversation with Pierre Robert on WMMR. In this first part, Peter tells Pierre about shaping the book as a set of short stories about the people he has interacted with in his life, like how he met Bob Dylan in a restaurant and interrupts a bathroom business meeting of Sly Stone. Peter also regales us with his time working in radio and how that led to a very memorable interaction with Van Morrison. See more at WMMR.com and follow on Instagram: @PierreRobert933

Today's episode is on "Sly Lives! (aka The Burden of Black Genius)", a 2025 Questlove jawn about Sly Stone (and the Family Stone). The movie shows us how Sylvester Stewart evolved into Sly Stone, co-founded the Family Stone, and cranked out a pile of classic tunes over the course of a few years. And, of course, we learn about Sly's drug-fueled downfall and late in life redemption. This movie looks and sounds great, and Sly's story is endlessly interesting. But is this the best Questlove can do?

Populärmusikens DNA hade sett annorlunda ut om Sly Stone aldrig hade iscensatt sin personliga frihetskamp, och drömt fram en översvallande, utopisk musikmosaik full av kärlek och optimism. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Sly Stone integrerade kön, etnicitet och genrer likt en budbärare från en mångkulturell framtid. Han var också den coolast klädde som flöt ovanpå tillvaron i höga klackar, svart och röd satäng och afro, medan bandet visade vägen för George Clinton, Stevie Wonder, Miles Davis, Earth Wind & Fire, Prince. Album som ”Stand”, ”There's a riot going on” och ”Fresh” fortsätter att påverka nya generationer.På 70-talet förvandlades den forne glädjespridaren och humanisten till den sista, stora musikeremiten som omgärdades av en mur av mörker och mänskligt sönderfall. Vad var det egentligen som hände?Här pratade Sly Stones för första gången på 25 år.

Sarah is having another medical situation, and this time Susie is blaming all of her wild outlaw habits lately. Susie explains why Gen Z insists on using all lower case letters, and we're wondering if the kids are alright. We discuss the Surviving Black Hawk Down documentary, and the ways the government, society, and media paint a picture of the United States as the "good guy," but often it's just a matter of perspective. We talk about a brain surgeon who describes the ways our brains lie to us about our "selfhood," identity, and free will, and why things may not be what they seem when it comes to how we see ourselves. We hear about the Sly Stone documentary that looks at the idea of "Black genius," and the price Black artists and thinkers can pay because of their incredible talent and the pressures of success. Susie's favorite scams are by the Chinese, but this time, it's not a zoo, it's a tourist attraction that is truly phoning their scam in and it's hilarious. We learn about a child influencer who is making a splash in the restaurant world with his mission to bring honor to the classic mocktail beverage, the Shirley Temple. Plus, we hear why YouTube's branding doesn't really match how people are using its infrastructure.Listen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comJoin our Candy Club, shop our merch, sign-up for our free newsletter, & more by visiting The Brain Candy Podcast website: https://www.thebraincandypodcast.comConnect with us on social media:BCP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastSusie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterSarah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBCP on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodSponsors:Visit https://cozyearth.com and use our exclusive 40% off code BRAINCANDYVisit https://www.carawayhome.com/BRAINCANDY to take an additional 10% off your next purchase.Control Body Odor ANYWHERE with @lumedeodorant and get 15% off with promo code BRAINCANDY15 at https://lumepodcast.com/BRAINCANDY15 #lumepodSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Nikki O'Neill, an R&B/Americana singer-songwriter and guitarist based in Chicago, is releasing her third solo album, Stories I Only Tell My Friends. It's being issued on Blackbird Record Label on March 14, 2025 on 12” LP vinyl, CD, digital download and streaming. This interweaving of Soul, Americana, Rock, Gospel and Blues is an integral part of O'Neill's sound, and likely due to her upbringing. “I was born in L.A., but grew up mostly in Stockholm, Sweden with a Russian grandmother and Polish mother,” she says. “Both of them, and also my father, grew up with war and had a history of constantly moving from one country and one apartment to another. My mom was young when she had me, and music seemed to be her source of joy. She loved listening to all kinds of artists, from Al Green to Santana, Dinah Washington, Stevie Wonder, John Lennon, and the Traveling Wilbury's. I soaked it all up like a sponge. I started making up songs when I was twelve, and first picked up a guitar when I was 16. I loved going to record stores, and when Prince's Purple Rain album came out, I bought it immediately and listened to it religiously. Then a friend and drummer in my first band introduced me to Sly Stone. The way Prince and Sly fused soul and rock, and were leaders of multi-racial bands with male and female musicians was tremendously influential.” O'Neill moved from Stockholm to New York City where she mostly played guitar in other bands. She relocated to Los Angeles after meeting Rich Lackowski at a music trade show. O'Neill became a solo artist, and the couple (now married) eventually became members of L.A.'s small, but supportive Americana artist community. After self-releasing her 2017 solo EP, Love Will Lead You Home (with songs co-written by lyricist Paul Menser), she regularly performed around L.A. with Lackowski in their 4-piece band, and was signed to Blackbird Record Label in August, 2020. In October that same year, she released World is Waiting, her second solo album and label debut. With touring opportunities erased by the pandemic and California becoming unaffordable, they packed up their instruments into her little red Honda Fit and drove to Lackowski's hometown of Chicago. “It took me a while to get rooted in Chicago, meet musicians and start writing again, but I also didn't want my songs to sound like leftovers from the last album,” O'Neill says. “I wanted to find out how Chicago would inspire me.” Stories I Only Tell My Friends is eloquent testimony to the inspiration she found.

At the end of the 1960s, Sly Stone was at the center of a groundbreaking musical movement that intended to break down barriers of race and genre, all in the service of making people happy. But at the dawn of the 1970s, Sly Stone suddenly was not happy. His L.A. mansion was overrun with cocaine, PCP, guns, and bodyguards. He was strongarmed by the Black Panthers. He thought his own bass player hired someone to kill him. He drew the attention of local law enforcement. Before long, he was crossing paths with cops from coast to coast, busted time and again for drug offenses – including when he went on the lam under a false name and was declared a fugitive from justice.

In the 1970s, no group loomed as large as Sly and the Family Stone. Led by the charismatic and musical savant Sly Stone, no one looked or sounded quite like the band. But the pressures of stardom and being "the first" took a toll, and Stone became a footnote in the lore of funk music history. A new documentary, "Sly Lives: the Burden of Black Genius," from Oscar-winning producer Joseph Patel, directed by Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson ("Summer of Soul"), examines the life and legacy of Sly. Patel joins to discuss the documentary, which begins streaming on Hulu tomorrow.
Questlove is back to talk about his new documentary about Sly Stone and his band the Family Stone. They created a new sound with their mix of pop, soul, funk, psychedelic music and irresistible beats. The film is called SLY LIVES! (aka The Burden of Black Genius) and it streams on Hulu beginning Feb. 13.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

We talk about persistence in getting an internship, not convoluting the process, leaning on Brian Eno for guidance, retraining yourself to not “grind” yourself until defeat, and getting outside to do things unrelated to mastering.

It is I, DJ Witwicky of the Takagura Dojo. Here to break you off some knowledge via the World Wide Web. Welcome to Digital Dimension. No theme, rhyme or reason in this installment. Just following my ninja intuition and blasting an hour worth of jams for my beloved listening audience. Picked up a few new albums yesterday. I risked it all driving in the ice to leave the store with a 1980 Italian pressing of Jimi Hendrix, a disco Sly Stone album and two Redd Foxx comedy joints. Tremendous. As always, thank you for being here I hope someone enjoyed it. Keisha, keep rocking in the free world. Your Host with the Most,Billy Bing Bong
In Episode 101 of the Dirty 30 Podcast, Beatdown Brown and Eddie P delve into two major stories making waves in the entertainment industry. First, we discuss Questlove's upcoming documentary, Sly Lives! (aka The Burden of Black Genius), which explores the life and legacy of funk legend Sly Stone. The film is set to premiere at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival on January 23, 2025, followed by a release on Hulu on February 13, 2025. Next, we examine the recent legal troubles of Joe Budden, the rapper-turned-podcaster who has been charged with lewdness after allegedly being caught naked in the hallway of his New Jersey apartment building. The incident, captured on a neighbor's doorbell camera, has led to public scrutiny and discussions about privacy and conduct. #Dirty30Podcast #Questlove #SlyStone #SlyLives #Documentary #JoeBudden #LewdnessCharge #HipHopNews #MusicDocumentary #SundanceFilmFestival #Hulu #Podcast #EntertainmentNews #MusicIndustry #LegalIssues #FunkMusic #RapNews #QuestloveDocumentary #JoeBuddenArrest #SlyAndTheFamilyStone Join us as we unpack these stories and their implications for the music and entertainment world.

** PLEASE SUBSCRIBE ** Featured in WYGYFF Episode 9: Romanian multi-instrumentalist, singer, songwriter and producer Saoul Bumbu. Profoundly inspired by one-man-band artists like Parliament-Funkadelic, Sly Stone, Stevie Wonder and Prince, since 2012 Saoul has released eight albums of consistently danceable and thoughtful funk and soul music. His latest work is the wonderfully fun, in both sound and title, ElectricPeachyCocoFuzz. Recorded October 2024 Hosted by Scott "DR GX" Goldfine — musicologist, author of “Everything Is on the One: The First Guide of Funk” and creator/host of the popular TRUTH IN RHYTHM podcast — "Where'd You Get Your Funk From?" is the latest interview show brought to you by FUNKNSTUFF.NET. Where'd You Get Your Funk From (WYGYFF) is an open format video and audio podcast focusing on the here and now, with a broad range of creative and artistic guests sharing fascinating stories, experiences, and perspectives. WYGYFF is a welcoming avenue to newer and independent musical acts as well as established and still active musicians of any genre; authors; filmmakers; actors; artists; collectors and archivists; radio & podcast personalities; journalists; scholars; sound techs; promoters; photographers; and other creative people. A common thread, is the show's standard opening question: Where'd you get your funk from? This is much deeper than it may seem as the answer need not be strictly about funky music, as not everyone has found the funk. It could hit on whatever type of music touches their soul or pleasure centers. Additionally, the question extends beyond music. Paraphrasing George Clinton, funk is whatever it needs to be to get you over the hump. Thus, guests can explain where they got their grit, perseverance, inspiration, talent, creativity, character or other qualities that shaped them into who they are today. This serves as a springboard into candid, in-depth and engrossing conversations. LEGAL NOTICE: All video and audio content protected by copyright.

Jimmy Vivino Live on Game Changers With Vicki Abelson It had been six long, 4 1/2 COVID years since last I sat down with my old friend, multi-instrumentalist, producer, composer, and long-time musical director for Conan O'Brien, Jimmy Vivino. It was like coming home. Almost the same age, we have many shared (unbeknownst to us at the time) memories of concerts at The Filmore East, Watkins Glen, the glory daze of the NY club scene, and a bounty of mutual friends. Talk about being in one's comfort zone. Jimmy talked growing up in New Jersey, his carpenter trumpet-playing father, his talented brothers, Jerry and Floyd, and how they began and evolved - he talked Conan, Laura Nyro, Phoebe Snow, Donald Fagen, John Sebastian, Al Kooper, Levon Helm, The Allman Brothers, Albert King, Tom Petty, Prince, Bruno Mars, Michael McDonald, Johnny Johnson, Hubert Sumlin, Stevie Wonder, Muddy Waters, Pinetop Perkins, John Sebastian, The Dead, The Band, Harry Shearer, Paul Shaffer, whom he credits as his mentor, Leader of the Pack, Broadway, Ronnie Spector, Felix Cavaliere, The Rascals, Frankie Valli, Slash, Sly Stone, The J. Geils Band, Elvis Costello, and the James Brown and Friends Set Fire To The Soul with Aretha, Robert Palmer, and Joe Cocker, that he orchestrated. Incredible stories all around, and this special is available on YouTube… wow - Snuff and I just watched it. Spectacular. We talked about COVID and Jimmy joining Canned Heat, currently touring with them, and Bill Murray, as well as still doing shows with Will Lee and The Fab Faux. His first all-original album, Gonna Be 2 of Those Days, is due to drop in February, signed copies are available for pre-sale at jimmyvmusic.com He treated us to a track to close the show. Life is busy, busy. busy… just the way Jimmy likes it. And so do we who follow and adore him. I so enjoyed every second of this. Jimmy needs to write a book and get all these stories down. He knows and has played with everyone. Such fun!
