After last week's show, in solidarity with the protests that have been sweeping the globe, I realized I'd made an egregious oversight; while the show stood in support of the Black Lives Matter movement, only about half of the featured artists were black. So for today's show, we've curated a selection of music from projects led exclusively by black artists, across a wide range of genres. Here's what we played:
Fil Smif (Eugenius) - I have built myself a tomb
Yves Tumor - Super Star
Terrace Martin, Denzel Curry, Kamasi Washington, G Perico & Daylyt - Pig Feet
Knxwledge - makeitliveforever
Armand Hammer - War Stories
Thundercat & Zack Fox - Overseas

Tosin Abasi - Archetype
