Yasiin Gaye, by Amerigo Gazway
A Nashville-born DJ re-orchestrates multi-tracks from Marvin Gaye’s 70’s discography and overlays them with vocals from some of Mos Def’s iconic songs from the 2000’s. What emerges is an impressive reimagining of the Motown sound in our modern moment—music, social commentary, dripping cool, and all. Every track here is golden, and that’s as rare as it sounds.
