As Black History Month comes to an end the Grammy’s are long gone, post his open letter about the miseducation and representation of the Blues category nomination process, I sit down in Time Square New York to speak with Chris Thomas King. On this special 2 hour episode, Chris Thomas King shares the misconception of the birthplace of the Blues and he presents the proof of this misconception. He shares with us the history of Louisiana and the Creole culture, as well as addressing his open letter and the book titled “The Original Blues: The Emergence of the Blues in African American Vaudeville” by Lynn Abbott & Doug Seroff.
He explains why his album “Hotel Voodoo” is definitely a Blues Album.
