Amerigo Gazaway brings to life an imagined studio session between Chicago's crowned prince of Hip-Hop, Common, and Motown legend, Stevie Wonder.

A return to the Soul meets Hip-Hop formula of his Marvin Gaye + Mos Def pairing “Yasiin Gaye,” Gazaway connects the dots between Hip-Hop and the genre’s predecessor with a musical history lesson told through the intersecting themes of Common and Stevie’s respective catalogues. As Gazaway put it:

“Stevie Wonder’s early use of synthesizers, drum machines, and samplers, in a lot of ways, paved the way for hip-hop and sampling. Part of my motivation for this project was to highlight those contributions”

Picking up where Common and Stevie’s 2016 “Black America Again,” single left off, Amerigo brings his imagined recording session to life with a slew of uncovered resources (including multitrack instrument stems, interview audio, and documentary soundbites.) Re-orchestrating deconstructed samples, the producer interweaves Common’s vivid wordplay and Wonder’s passionate vocals for a project that blurs the line between a “mashup” and a modern day duets album.

Nana Amos Wilson is the Author of:
• The Developmental Psychology of the Black Child
• Awakening the Natural Genius of Black Children
• Blueprint for Black Power

He also established @Afrikan World Info Systems, a publishing company dedicated to knowledge production, specific to the needs of the Global Afrikan Community. Few, if any, were more prolific in providing a more scientific analysis of the plight of Black people, and putting forward tangible programmes. Shortly before the publishing of Blueprint for Black Power, Nana Wilson passed away - 14th January 1995. He was on the verge of developing a credit union and other institutions around the community businesses and organisations he was involved in.

Nana Amos Wilson laid a Blueprint. He did his work. Now we honour him the best way we know how - profiling those who are building on this illustrious legacy, engaging the Blueprint in thought and action.

In a recent conversation with Sister Dr. Afiya Mbilishaka, Tariq Nasheed @Tariq Radio made a claim concerning the extent to which Omowale Malcolm X was 'rejected' by Afrikans on the continent, during his visits of 1964. The claim has been repeated so often, that I figured it was time to subject it to #ThePanAfrikanQuestion treatment.... Check it out.
