このエピソードについて
Marcus J. Moore shares how he built a career by simply "asking the question," revealing the humanity in music through his writing and thoughtful approach to collaboration. An incredible music journalist, critic, and the author of The Butterfly Effect: How Kendrick Lamar Ignited the Soul of Black America, Moore graciously shares his nonlinear journey from a city-specific reporter to the imposter syndrome of writing his second book on legendary hip hop group, De La Soul. A contributor at the Washington Post with columns at TIDAL and The New York Times, Moore covers hip hop, jazz, and other niche genres and emerging left-of-center artists. Meandering through the practices and people that have propelled his double-decade career, Moore cleverly drops in soundbites of his favorite songs now available as a playlist on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7gtJMYZrezATY9rU0fjUfd?si=-MPqSDd4RWWH13oWAeqNyw.
