  3. Can You Dig It? A Hip Hop Origin Story - with Chuck D

    Can You Dig It? A Hip Hop Origin Story - with Chuck D

    Kris talks about the new podcast Can You Dig It? with narrator Chuck D of Public Enemy, along with both producers to discover the untold origins of Hip Hop.  The story is told through a blend of immersive reenactments, oral history and expert discussion, Can You Dig It? is as illuminating for hip-hop fans as it is for history buffs, as one of the great American stories. About the Can You Dig It? Podcast: How did hip-hop happen? To understand that, we have to go back to before the ‘birth’ of the culture. It wasn’t a given that the Bronx of the late 1960s and early 1970s would be the birthplace of an American art form. Urban renewal had left the borough neglected and in crisis. Gangs policed the streets, and winding up in the wrong territory could have serious consequences. But things were about to change. Can You Dig It? is an in-depth history of how positive community influences helped inspire the troubled youth to end the cycle of gang violence, as told by people who were there at the time. It’s the inspiring true story of how local gang the Ghetto Brothers rejected calls for war in the aftermath of the murder of Black Benjie–a member who was trying to find common ground–and how gang leaders Yellow Benjy and Karate Charlie worked to broker a peace with rivals. The end result? A place where urban artistry could flourish into a global culture fifty years strong: hip-hop. Narrated by Public Enemy’s Chuck D and told through a blend of immersive reenactments, oral history and expert discussion, Can You Dig It? is as illuminating for hip-hop fans as it is for history buffs, as one of the great American stories. It’s a tribute not just to community action but to the unsung heroes who paved the way for greatness. ©2023 PB and J Productions, LLC (P)2023 Audible Originals, LLC -- Can You Dig It? is availible to listen to NOW on Audible Originals - CLICK HERE  For more from Chuck D - Visit his website MrChuckD.com For more from Producers Bryan Master & Pete Chelala - Visit their website PB&J Productions -- About the Podcast:  ‘TEXT PROSE AND ROCK N ROLL’- is the only podcast dedicated to the written account of musicians.

    As Kris & Producer Char prepare for the next round of new TPR Tracks, they've decided to share some of their favorites that newer listeners might not had a chance to listen to yet... on this first encore, they look back to when they first piloted the podcast, just as the pandemic was about to begin.  Liner Notes:  Kris is honored to welcome her first guest, longtime friend and former co-worker, Matt Pinfield!  If you watched MTV in the mid 90's you know Matt Pinfield as the host of the seminal alternative music series, 120 Minutes.  Matt knew everything about music because to hear him tell it - he's a music fan first and foremost.

The night this podcast was recorded, it had been a long time since Kris & Matt had seen each other. They had so much to cover and little time to do it... what became of the Track was an honest and frank conversation about Matt's life in music, which he recently chronicled in his book, All These Things That I've Done: My Insane, Improbable Rock Life.  Check out Matt's book, now available on paperback!  Follow Matt on Socials: Instagram@MatthewPinfield - Twitter@MattPinfield ...if you like what you hear, please subscribe, rate, comment, then tell a friend!

    Track 31 - Richard Hell

    LINER NOTES:  On this track, Kris has a candid conversation with punk legend Richard Hell, to talk about his recently published memoir, Chronicle.

Hell was in several important, early punk bands, including Neon Boys, Television and The Heartbreakers, after which he formed Richard Hell & the Voidoids. Their 1977 album Blank Generation influenced many other punk bands. Its title track was named "One of the 500 Songs That Shaped Rock" by music writers in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame listing and is ranked as one of the all-time Top 10 punk songs by a 2006 poll of original British punk figures, as reported in the Rough Guide to Punk. Since the late 1980s, Hell has devoted himself primarily to writing, publishing two novels and several other books. He was the film critic for BlackBook magazine from 2004 to 2006. -- About the Podcast:  ‘TEXT PROSE AND ROCK N ROLL’- is the only podcast dedicated to the written account of musicians.

    Track 30 - Poly Styrene: I Am A Cliche

    LINER NOTES:  Kris sits down with filmmakers Paul Sng & Celeste Bell to talk about their film Poly Styrene: I Am A Cliche, a documentary about Celeste's Mom, Poly Styrene.  Poly Styrene: I Am A Cliche releases in theaters this week, then will be available on demand beginning February 4! For more on the film and to keep up to date on Celest and Paul, visit the website.  Follow the film on Social Media: @PolyStyreneFilm on Twitter & Instagram.  About the film: Poly Styrene was the first woman of color in the UK to front a successful rock band. She introduced the world to a new sound of rebellion, using her unconventional voice to sing about identity, consumerism, postmodernism, and everything she saw unfolding in late 1970s Britain, with a rare prescience. As the frontwoman of X-Ray Spex, the Anglo-Somali punk musician was also a key inspiration for the riot grrrl and Afropunk movements. But the late punk maverick didn’t just leave behind an immense cultural footprint. Poly was survived by a daughter, Celeste Bell. Celeste became the unwitting guardian of her mother’s legacy and her mother’s demons. Misogyny, racism, and mental illness plagued Poly’s life, while their lasting trauma scarred Celeste’s childhood and the pair’s relationship. Featuring unseen archive material and rare diary entries narrated by Oscar-nominee Ruth Negga, this documentary follows Celeste as she examines her mother's unopened artistic archive and traverses three continents to better understand Poly the icon and Poly the mother. -- About the Podcast:  ‘TEXT PROSE AND ROCK N ROLL’- is the only podcast dedicated to the written account of musicians.
