Why gigs feel like football matches with Kojey Radical, Shabaka Hutchings, Nubya Garcia and Ashley Henry

Kojey Radical and guests discuss how to write about something you’ve not experienced.

Welcome to Music Life, the weekly series and podcast in which musicians talk to their peers about all aspects of life making music.

This week, poet, artist, musician, rapper, model, and visual artist Kojey Radical commands the red sofa and hosts this episode. He is joined by: jazz superstar saxophonist, Sons of Kemet and The Comet Is Coming band leader Shabaka Hutchings; the only jazz artist on a UK major label, the up and coming pianist Ashley Henry; and the person who is “changing jazz” right now, the award winning saxophonist Nubya Garcia.

Led by Kojey they’ll be discussing how you write about something you’ve not personally experienced, feeling accepted by your peers, and whether or not you need to be an outsider in order to be original.
