The Gold Griot: a Soundtrack to the Life and Art of Jean-Michel Basquiat // 22-12-17

Music played the role of muse and mentor to Jean-Michel Basquiat, in both his life and art. He immersed himself in the avant-garde scene in downtown New York in the late 70s/early 80s and perhaps there is no one that epitomises this revolution. Artist, poet and musician, he embodied the raw, no holds barred creativity of this short period of history. This podcast is a celebration of the music that he loved. The music he listened to while he painted, that he played in clubs, that he featured in his artwork.
