In celebration of Black Music Month, we’re diving into the history, purpose and progression of Black music — past and present. In the first episode, A Tribe Called Quest member Ali Shaheed Muhammad and soul music artist Adrian Younge talk the blues — a style of music that bridged the gap between the old and the new, songs of slavery and songs of newfound “freedom,” exploring issues of race, class, gender and image. This episode features guests such as Buddy Guy, Cautious Clay, Malina Moye, Christone "Kingfish" Ingram, Kirk Fletcher, Twin Shadow, and Raphael Saadiq discussing the blues with some of its history and modern context.
