PARTYNEXTDOOR and Nardwuar Talk ‘Space Jam,’ Unheralded Jamaican and Canadian Pioneers in New Interview

Source: Youtube

“Canadians are important”

Nardwuar is joined by fellow north-of-the-border personality and OVO hit-maker, PARTYNEXTDOOR, in his latest wildly well-researched interview.

HEAR: PARTYNEXTDOOR’S SURPRISE COLOURS 2 EP

The ritual gift-giving puts the Toronto producer and songwriter in possession of early 12-inch singles from unheralded Jamaican and Canadian music pioneers and finds PND championing the Space Jam soundtrack, itself one of the best curations of mid-nineties hip-hop and r&b — featuring D’Angelo, The Roots and a pre-scandal R Kelly — and apparently, an indisposable piece to the PND puzzle, as he claims to have developed an inseparable bond with the OST from an early age.
