If you enjoy any amount of work by Common, Erykah, Slum Village, or The Roots, it's likely you've encountered Karriem Riggins, producer-musician-performer extraordinaire. Having supported some of the biggest names in hip hop and R&B, Riggins stands as melodious force to be reckoned with and much of his discography attests to a recent Stones Throw podcast entitled, "Karriem Produced That". It's a 20-plus track of Riggins' musical portfolio, including everyone from 50 Cent to Dwele that will have you saying, "Damn, Karriem produced that too?"
Currently on tour with Diana Krall and promoting his upcoming fall release, Alone Together, a 34-track instrumental montage, this podcast is not the perfect crash course in all things Riggins but an absolute must-have for any true hip hop fan's collection. Click the podcast art below to stream.
