This month, it’s a ‘best of’ meets ‘who knew’ selection, that zooms in on a handful of artists to pit the talents of Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff, Philadelphia International Records’ finest versus Harlem, New York City to honour the off-kilter funk, ghetto disco and production prowess of Mr Patrick Adams and Mr Peter Brown. It’s black joy, black pride, black power with activism pumping through it. Hashtag black history month. Every month.
