Wine And Hip Hop Wine and Hip Hop

This week, we’re giving you a front-row seat to the Keynote Conversation at the 2024 Philbrook Art Museum Wine Experience in Tulsa, Oklahoma, between your host Jermaine Stone and esteemed New York Times wine critic Eric Asimov. This conversation was especially iconic because it fell on the one-year anniversary of the profile Eric wrote about Jermaine for The NY Times. From the release of his first network show, the Emmy and James Beard award-nominated series Street Somm, to breaking barriers in wine and wine tasting heard around the world at Clos de Vougeot, which featured hip hop played for the first time within the 1000-year-old castle walls, Jermaine has been quite busy. His conversation with Eric covers it all while giving an in-depth journey through the road that got him there.

And now for part 2..... Jermaine sits with Hip Hop legend Canibus to break down the different elements of complex raps to explain what complexity and wine mean. This is not just a podcast about wine. It’s a master class in how to write a dope rap, with significant insight on flow, metaphors, wordplay, and vocabulary with two masters at their craft. You would never think that Canibus was a classically trained clarinet player, by a conductor of the Philharmonic. but that was just one of the details. We learned in this interview. Whether a rap nerd or a wine nerd this is not one you want to miss.
