  • Rising hip-hop star ReeCee has Charlotte 'Rapped' around her finger

    Rising hip-hop star ReeCee has Charlotte 'Rapped' around her finger
    Feb 24 2022
    This has been a historic year for women in rap and hip-hop, all the way to the 2021 Grammy Awards when Megan Thee Stallion and Beyoncé broke records as the first pair of women to win in the best rap performance category. As NPR Music put it, “To know what tomorrow sounds like, one need only listen to the women in rap today.” And to know what the future of Charlotte hip-hop is, one need only turn to rhythmic lyricist ReeCee Raps.

  • 'Those roots are really here': From the Carter Family to Bill Monroe, unearthing the hidden history of Charlotte country music

    'Those roots are really here': From the Carter Family to Bill Monroe, unearthing the hidden history of Charlotte country music
    Feb 10 2022
    Back in the 1930s, more country music was recorded in Charlotte than in Nashville, Tennessee. Some of the Charlotte recordings from that period have become part of the essential canon of traditional country music, from "the first family of country" — the Carter Family — to the first career steps of "the father of bluegrass" Bill Monroe.

  • Sixty years, hundreds of percussion instruments: Native American musician Jim Brock drums up memories

    Sixty years, hundreds of percussion instruments: Native American musician Jim Brock drums up memories
    Jan 27 2022
    Amplifier is a bi-weekly podcast, not a full-length documentary. If it were the latter, we could easily dedicate a few hours to the work of Jim Brock, the Charlotte music veteran who has been heralded by various publications as one of the best drummers alive. Between performing at the White House for President Bill Clinton and logging six decades of music (with hundreds of percussion instruments) with Grammy Award winners like Janis Ian, Kathy Mattea and The Eagles’ Joe Walsh, Brock has made North Carolina his home and has found space for his Native American heritage.
