"this LA beat/jazz scene is on fire"


          

So i guess this started with Fly Lo/Thundercat, then evolved to Terrace and Josef Leimberg, now there are dudes like Jonah Levine and Kiefer.

The level of quality coming out of the city is amazingly high.

kiefer (plays keys in the 'for free' cover), also dropped a supremely dope album/beat tape release recently:

I know Terrace Martin spent some time in Kirk Franklin's band in Dallas.

In fact a lot of musicians come from that camp.

gonna try and get to this soon.

Been looking for some new LA Beat Scene / Jazz shit.

Scene was on fire for so long, then sort of plateaued.
Haven't heard much development / progression.
A shame too because
I found plenty albums / artists I really rocked with.
