Jack Dappa Blues Podcast

On this episode, Marquise Knox and I discuss the issues that prompted Chris Thomas King to write his open letter addressing the gentrification of the Blues based on him being removed from the Grammy nomination list for best Blues Album. As we address this issue, we refer and share quotes from other Black Blues Musicians, (Chick Willis and Corey Harris) that have addressed similar, if not the same concerns in the past.
