It’s #WomensHistoryMonth, and we’re kicking off the month with a discussion about producer, composer, multi-instrumentalist and singer Patrice Rushen. At a time when few Black women controlled their musical creativity and output, Rushen was in a class all her own. 2023 marks the 45th anniversary of her move to Elektra Records. With hits including "Haven't You Heard?" and Forget Me Nots, the era marked Rushen’s shift to a more R&B/Pop style, and would give us some of her most recognizable songs.

Show #88 - Revisiting Flavor Unit's Compilation "Roll Wit Tha Flava" and the rise of Zhané #HipHop50

In the 1980s, Spike Lee showed young Black folks like DJ Sir Daniel and Jay Ray what was possible for us. Spike showed Black love and Black experience unapologetically on screen, and became an inspiration for many. Spike was also very connected to hip hop culture, and infused hip hop, Jazz and soul into every part of his films. On this episode we’re discussing the brilliant, Black, film history of Spike Lee through a music lens. About the #1988Series: 1988 was a banner year for Black music. Hip Hop solidified itself as a chart contenter, New Jack Swing was taking over, and classic albums hit the stores.

The Healing Project: A Discussion With Samora Pinderhughes

During our last episode we discussed the introduction of MC Skat Kat during Paula Abdul’s “Opposite’s Attract.” The inclusion of an animated, rapping cat was one of the signals of hip hop’s growing cultural influence. In fact, hip hop was showing up in cartoons throughout the 1980s. During the 1990s rappers moved easily into cartoon stardom. From Kid ‘n Play to MC Hammer we’re revisiting the era of the rapping cartoon. Watch this episode on our website: https://to.qpnt.net/watch-show-85 We recorded this episode live in Atlanta.

Show #84 - Forever Your Girl: The Lasting Legacy of Paula Abdul’s Debut

One hallmark of the 1990s was the, still flourishing and profitable, girl group. On episode #5, back in 2021, we discussed why there aren't any girl groups anymore. For this episode we are remembering those groups that were right there on the cusp of superstardom. Jade, Nuttin Nyce, Terri & Monica, Changing Faces, The Good Girls, Brownstone and BlackGirl. These groups had hits, and were so close, but it didn’t quite happen. On this episode we have a conversation about it, reminisce about some jams and discuss 90s girl groups that almost became superstars.  Also, DJ Sir Daniel and Jay Ray will rank their personal top 3 groups of all time. In addition, during our first segment they discuss hip-hop going to school. What are Lupe Fiasco and Mickey Factz bringing to the classroom?

Show #81 - Giving the Gift of Music for the Holiday

This World AIDS Day, DJ Sir Daniel and Jay Ray are dedicating the show to the music that helped educate and inform during the height of the HIV epidemic of the 1980s and 1990s. There is no justice movement that emerges without art, and many musicians turned HIV activists during the most difficult years. Black artists were absolutely on the frontlines demanding money for research and treatment and educating the community. Joining us for this conversation is stephen hicks.

Show #80 - Music from the Frontlines of the HIV Epidemic (Guest: stephen hicks)

Well folks, it’s Thanksgiving, and a time when many folks are reflecting on their life over the last year, and preparing to spend time with friends and family. Well, we’ve invited our family to join us to celebrate. Ashli J. Washington and Mashaun D. Simon from B4Nine Podcast are stopping through! B4Nine Podcast is getting set for their next season, and we want to talk to them about what happened during their break, what they’re thankful for and what folks can expect during the upcoming season of their show. They are sticking around for our music topic of the week as well. Rolling Stone recently released “The 50 Greatest Concept Albums of All Time.” We’re going to discuss the list, what they got right, and what’s missing. Join us to chime in. What’s your favorite concept album of all time, and why? Watch this episode on our website: https://to.qpnt.net/watch-show-79 B4Nine Podcast Description: In the spring of 2018, Ashli would meet the man who would change her life forever. As she slowly sauntered into her place of work, she came across Mashaun and looked curiously and eagerly into his eyes. She didn’t know it then, but standing before her was the man who would become her greatest challenge and unexpected blessing! From that moment on, things would never be the same. From that moment on, they would both embark upon a journey that would birth dream fulfilling opportunities. In that moment, B4Nine was born.  We like to say that B4Nine is all the things! What does that mean? It’s pretty simple. We are both complicated, but not so complicated, creatives with opinions and perspectives that are unique and often shared by others afraid to express their points-of-view. We are both unapologetically Black and are not afraid to share our opinions and perspectives about all things Blackness, popular culture, relationships, sex, and identity.  Follow B4Nine Podcast:  Website: https://www.b4ninepodcast.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/b4ninepodcast/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/b4ninepodcast/ Ashli J.
