Egon and The Beat Konducta keep it classy in France.

Seeing as how celebrations were in order this past week -- upon the release of Lib's latest collaborative project with Freddie Gibbs -- a moment to showcase his growing fondness of crushed grape product has surfaced. In a new video from France's Radio Nova, a crew shadows the producer and longtime manager, Egon Alapatt, as the duo tours a champagne vineyard in France. Guided by Jerome Prevost of Champagne La Closerie, Egon and The Beat Konducta go behind-the-scenes of a world-class operation and chop it up with a master vintner on the cross-sections of spiritual jazz and singular bubbly.
