026: J-Zone Bedroom Beethovens

    • Music Interviews

J-Zone swings by before dropping the Du-Rites live album, Soundcheck at 6, to chat about music back in the 50’s and 60’s and how young musicians had to survive the tutelage of ruthless mentors like Miles Davis and Joe Dukes. This leads us down a winding road of social media culture, the self loathing nature of artist and aspects of professionalism, Nas beat selections and his own love affair with funk music. We run the gamut on numerous musicians like Benson slowly but surely developing into a jazz player, absorbing the music of Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers on the road and how MoTown was filled with big band jazz players trying to make a buck. For the next hour, J-Zone drops gems, and I was honored to sit down with him and share some insight with you all.
