Rhythm and Booze: A Toast to Black Music is exactly what it sounds like…a smooth pour of nostalgia, soul, and celebration, served straight up. In honor of Black Music Month, I’m joined by Grammy-nominated artist and certified vibe curator Darnell Miller, who’s just as much a music connoisseur as he is a creative. Together, we’re raising our glasses to the sounds that raised us and you too.

From cookout classics to the soundtrack of our listeners’ lives, we’re mixing Black music history with personal memories, unexpected laughs, and a little of my off-key singing. In Songs That Raised Us, we revisit the tracks that shaped our coming-of-age, and in Respect on Their Name, we spotlight the overlooked brilliance of Black artists whose influence runs deep.

This episode is less Q&A and more full-body groove! Pour something good, turn the volume up, and dance along with us. Because when the rhythm hits just right, you don’t just hear it… you feel it.

Here’s the perfect pour to go with this episode—our Rhythm and Booze playlist, curated to match every beat, memory, and moment we talked through. Hit play, pour up, and let the music move you long after the episode ends.
