]]> 3540 Me and Garrett Gonzales (roheblius on socials) have been buddies for over two decades, and much of our friendship has centered around music. We actually met as music reviewers and have kept the discourse going even though neither of us writes consistently about music anymore. The two of us reconnected for an episode of JN2S during which we cover the recent Grammy Award ceremony, our mature music tastes and how some genres (specifically hip-hop) don't speak to us the same as they used to. We also discuss two wildly controversial artists; Kanye West and Justin Timberlake (leading to discussions about Michael Jackson and R. Kelly) and try to figure out where the line is when it comes to appreciating art by people who might be problematic for a variety of reasons.

]]> 3539 yes It's the start of a new journey. I'm restarting the podcast as a show on Radio Free Brooklyn, without my fearless co-host JC (who I hope will be back) but WITH a cast of rotating guest hosts. This first show, however, is just me. Talking about my music fan bona fides; how I discovered music, what it meant to me as a kid, what it means to me now. I discuss my life in the music industry, and my tenure as a music critic. This is ground zero for anyone interested in how a Black kid from Brooklyn found himself enveloped in the world of music, and what led to this show being a thing.
