Elements: Ready To Die by The Notorious B.I.G.
Manage episode 439373802 series 2943531
In the first episode of our new series, Elements, we celebrate the 30th anniversary of Ready To Die by The Notorious B.I.G.! You'll hear from those who were part of the album's creation—producers, engineers, and collaborators who helped craft its unique sound. We'll also bring you trusted voices from the community and people who lived the same experiences Biggie rapped about, offering a firsthand view into the world he depicted. And we'll hear from scholars who will deconstruct the social, political, intellectual, philosophical and psychological depths of Ready to Die.
Special guests include:
- Prince Charles Alexander (Recording Engineer and lecturer who recorded several songs on the album)
- Donald Harrison (Legendary Jazz Saxophonist who taught Biggie about musical performance and poetic devices)
- Justin Tinsley (Journalist and Author of 'It Was All A Dream: Biggie & The World That Made Him)
- Skyzoo (Rapper, Writer and Artist from Brooklyn who was one of Biggie's neighbours)
Join us as we unpack the human experience through the lens of one of hip-hop's greatest storytellers.
Special thanks to Dart Adams for linking us up with Prince Charles Alexander. Respect every time.
Produced by Sumit Sharma and Chris Mitchell for Breaking Atoms.
The series and episode artwork is by Pecue for Sole Imperial.
