…And another one. This time Robert Glasper is joined by everyone’s favorite DJ/drummer/producer/music aficionado Questlove. Accompanied by The Roots and the sultry voice of Solange, “Twice,” a Little Dragon cover, is 9 minutes of passion and vitality. I’m getting more excited with every share from Black Radio Recovered: The Remix EP. Make sure you cop that on Oct. 9.
Some of the best news I’ve heard this week, the official release of Robert Glasper’s Black Radio Recovered: The Remix EP drops on Oct. 9. Glasper’s most recent release, Black Radio (still in heavy rotation, btw), is a beautiful melding of jazz, hip hop and soul, so there’s no doubt that The Remix EP will maintain that same level of genre intermixing. With production credits from 9th Wonder, ?uestlove and Georgia Anne Muldrow, additional vocal stylings from talents such as Phonte, Black Milk and Solange Knowles, this reworking should be well worth the anticipation. Check out the tracklisting and lil’ performance from The Robert Glasper Experiment with the lovely Lalah Hathaway under the cut. (more…)
You may or may not be familiar with the name Karriem Riggins, but it’s absolutely likely that you’ve bobbed your head to his productions. With an impressive roster of collaborations under his belt, Riggins and Stones Throw Records has compiled a nice podcast of some of the hip-hop producers most noted projects. From Talib Kweli, Slum Village, J Dilla, Erykah Badu, The Roots and many more, there will be tracks that make you stop and think, “Damn, Karriem Riggins produced that??!”
Check out Stones Throw Records for more info on the talented jazz drummer/producer.
