Robert Glasper's Jazz Experiment Entices Kanye West, Beyonce and More

Lupe Fiasco "I Gotcha" ft. The Robert Glasper Experiment
Filed under: News , Exclusive , New Music Joey L It's not unusual to find jazz musicians backing hip-hop MCs or soul singers, but when the likes of Kanye West and Beyoncé make special appearances with a jazz group, you know something's out of the ordinary. And the Robert Glasper Experiment, who have welcomed both superstars onstage, are no ordinary jazz outfit. They're just as likely to cover J [...]

LUPE FIASCO, KANYE WEST, MOS DEF & ROBERT GLASPER EXPERIMENT / "Super Cypher Mixtape"

LUPE FIASCO, KANYE WEST, MOS DEF & ROBERT GLASPER EXPERIMENT / "Super Cypher Mixtape" I'm a humungous jazz fan, whether it be the eclectic and avant-garde or the big band or the more traditional standards. I love it all. I love the fluidity. I love it with words and without words. It is such an amazing force. And it is dope and a pleasure to be associated with one of the members of the vanguard of the new jazz tradition and progressing it into new space and collaborating with the genre that was inspired from it - which would be hip hop and to bring those two worlds together.

Kanye West, Mos Def, Robert Glasper Experiment:

This weekend, when fans of jazz group the Robert Glasper Experiment stopped by the Blue Note, the show was billed as featuring G.O.O.D. Music stable member and skateboard rapper Lupe Fiasco. Imagine the crowd's surprise, then, when not only Lupe show up to perform his mini-set, but rap stalwart Mos Def and pop megastar Kanye West dropped by unannounced. The blog CiscoNYC was smart enough to capture the whole thing, which features Kanye rocking a five-minute plus freestyle where he drops punchlines that take on tour sponsers, Beyonce, people who think he [...]

Live: Kanye West and Mos Def freestyle - Blue Note Jazz Club Here's a blast from the past: Mos Def and Kanye West freestyling over a selection of interpretations of Dilla beats played by a live band. But this isn't really a throwback post - because this little open mic session actually took place this past weekend. The platform for this little off the cuff session was provided by jazz man extraordinaire Robert Glasper (if you don't know, you should get familiar , or check out this dope little tribute project ). Mister Glasper, who is signed to [...]

MAIYA AND NO PRESENT…ALL THAT JAZZ VOL.1

MAIYA AND NO PRESENT…ALL THAT JAZZ VOL.1 Download audio file (01-Autumns-Evening-Breeze.mp3 ) The first time we decided to collaborate on a compilation it was for Grimey , which was three volumes of hardcore hip hop. And during the process of selecting songs, we discovered that our individual musical tastes were very similar and complemented each other well. We have some dope compilation ideas for the future but for now we proudly present... All That Jazz Vol. 1. Some of the songs are strictly jazz, while others just have the smooth vibe like "Autumn's Evening [...]

New Music: Dela - The Robert Glasper Beat Tape

New Music: Dela - The Robert Glasper Beat Tape Last month, French producer Dela dropped The Robert Glasper Beat Tape , a tidy little compilation of jazzy (pronounced: yazzy)instrumentals inspired by the work of jazz pianist Robert Glasper. Dela's handiwork has been getting some serious play on the old GOMWAB transistor (in between sessions of sports talk back radio of course - summer is approaching, kiddies), but I've just realised that I've been hoarding this little beauty instead of sharing the love. So here we go - perfect Sunday afternoon listening fare. The story behind The Robert Glasper Beat Tape goes a [...]

Dela | The Robert Glasper Beat Tape

Dela | The Robert Glasper Beat Tape Inspired by the album In My Element by Jazz pianist Robert Glasper French producer Dela reworks samples from the album into a new jazzy Hip Hop instrumental creation. "Some of the interludes are basically hip-hop beats already... So.. I was like, I can't sample the whole album and get away with it, can I ? Can I ??? I felt guilty already, so I figured I might as well do it, but call it a remix album or something.. And I started making these beats. So there you go now." Dela [...]

TEN4SE7EN: Episode 49

TEN4SE7EN: Episode 49 Ryan (StopMe): My God it's been a long time since I did a TEN4SE7EN (Work commitments being the excuse). I've missed it and hopefully this post will be the first of many: On a trip to HMV I found they were selling last year's über-deluxe Chris Rea triple-cd/double-vinyl/book 'The Return Of The Fabulous Hofner Bluenotes' for the insane price of £8 English pounds. I'm never really listened to the guy before but at that price it was worth a punt. It's chock full of classy Blues numbers and clever Shadows tributes. The smouldering [...]

Gilles Peterson's Worldwide Awards 2010 @ The Garage

Gilles Peterson's Worldwide Awards 2010 @ The Garage Gilles Peterson has been shining a light on the jazz/funk/soul/world music he loves since the late 80's when the pirates of Horizon, Invicta and LWR did battle for London's music lovers. Then when Radio 1 repeated it's 60's trick of hoovering up former pirate DJ's to breath new life into the stilted world of Oooo Gary Davies, Gilles found himself peddling his wares on the nations No.1. For 2010 his live best of the year Worldwide Awards relocated to the newly refurbished "Garage" or as its now known the " Relentless Energy Drink Garage ". It's been closed for [...]
