646 – A.J. Hall: The Future is Now
A.J. Hall has been living a double life most of his career and he’s loving every minute of it. The Florida native who grew up gigging in high school and studying Jazz at Florida State has one foot in the hip hop world and one foot in the touring world with artists like John Cleary. While cutting his teeth in New Orleans and playing live shows he was not so secretly spending equal time in the studio, crafting beats and producing hip hop records. Although he’s known for different skills in different circles, both groups seek out A.J. for the same things: Authenticity, attention to the tradition of the music and and a work ethic like none other – oh, and beats that slap, of course.
In 2022 you cannot afford to not tap into what the internet can do for you.
