TJ Reynolds – “NPR” (Release) | @Zenolds
Listen to TJ Reynold‘s brand new NPR themed album, titled yes, NPR. Check the credits below.
What happens when the world of Hip-hop collides with National Public Radio? You get this fun romp through NPR’s world as filtered through the lens of Hip-hop. NPR theme songs get chopped up and turned into beats, and songs play on the themes of the shows. Interludes where the rapper calls in to shows like A Way with Words and Wait, Wait…, as well as exclusive interviews with famous Radio personalities such as Diane Rehm and Terry Gross
